-9(y + 12) = 4(-7y -8)

Use the distributive property:

-9y - 108 = -28y -32

Add 32 to both sides:

-9y - 76 = -28y

Add 9y to both sides:

-76 = -19y

Divide both sides by-19

Y = 4

A chocolate shop sold 1 1/4 ounces of white chocolate. It sold 8 1/4 times as much milk chocolate as white chocolate. How many o
rjkz [21]

Answer:

10.3125 (NOT  ROUNDED)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. I changed it to decimals. 1/4 can easily be changed into a decimal.

2. I set 1/4 = x/100. Then cross multiplied. That would give you 4x = 100.

3. Now you would simplify that. x would be 25. So its 25/100 wich then turns to .25.

4. Now you are going to replace them so it would be 1.25 and 8.25.

5. To find out how much milk chocolate there was you would multiply 1.25 and 8.25.

6. That's your final answer

Which values are solutions 4x greater than or equal to 35
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

\frac{5}{1/2}, 12, \frac{8}{3/4}, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

4x\geq 35

x \geq \frac{35}{4}

x \geq 8 \frac{3}{4}

so

\frac{5}{1/2} = 10

12

\frac{8}{3/4} = 10.66

and 10

Because saying 5 over 1/2 is saying 5 divided by 1/2 which is the same as saying 5 * 2

8 over 3/4 is 8 divided by 3/4 which is 8 * 1.33.

A fraction is division. If you mean 5 and 1/2 as well as 8 and 3/4 then remove 5 and 1/2 from the answer.
