The answer would be .5 pounds
1 ounce is equal to .0625 lbs
so 8 * .0625 = .5
hope this helps :)

Answer:
x = 11, -1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, let's identify what the quadratic formula is:
x = [-b ± √(b² - 4(a)(c))] / 2
Our equation is written in standard form:
ax² + bx + c = 0
x² - 10x - 11 = 0
Let's plug in what we know.
x = [-(-10) ± √((-10)² - 4(1)(-11))] / 2
Evaluate the exponent.
x = [-(-10) ± √(100 - 4(1)(-11))] / 2
Simplify the negatives.
x = [10 ± √(100 - 4(1)(-11))] / 2
Multiply.
x = [10 ± √(100 + 44)] / 2
Simplify the parentheses.
x = [10 ± √(144)] / 2
Simplify the radical (√)
x = [10 ± 12] / 2
Evaluate the ±.
x = [10 + 12] / 2
x = [22] / 2
x = 11
or
x = [10 - 12] / 2
x = [-2] / 2
x = -1
Your answers are x = 11, -1
Hope this helps!
<span>x = number of domestic stamps
y = number of foreign stamps
Malik
collects rare stamps and has a total of 212 stamps.
=> x + y = 212
he has 34 more
domestic stamps than foreign stamps.
=> x = y + 34
which
equation represents the total number of stamps malik collected?
x + y = 212
which
equation represents the difference in the number of foreign and domestic
stamps malik collected?
x - y = 34
which system of linear equations represents the
situation?
x + y = 212
x - y = 34
