Answer: 37.5 lb/wk

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the total amount of waste.  We are told that (2/5) of X is 15 lb/wk.

(2/5)X = 15 lb/wk

X = (5/2)*(15lb/wk)

X = (75/2) il/wk

X = 37.5 lb/wk

Answer:

1. 0.5

2. 3/4

3. -6

4. 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

1. A coefficient is a number that is placed in front of an algebraic term/variable in an expression or equation.

The decimal coefficient is therefore 0.5. It is the coefficient of x.

2. The fractional coefficient is 3/4. It is the coefficient of y.

3. The negative coefficient is -6. It is the coefficient of b.

4. A like term is one which contains the same type of terms as another term.

3x is a like term of 5x, because it contains a numerical term and an algebraic term to the power of 1.
