For this case we have the following conversion:
20 pounds = 9 kilograms
To use the table what we must do is find another relationship that allows us to find the weight in kilograms for 30 pounds.
For example, half the weight in pounds is half the weight in kilograms.
Therefore, the given conversion is:
10 pounds = 4.5 kilograms
So, for 30 pounds, we multiply this last ratio obtained by three on both sides:
30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms
Then, the table is:
Pounds 10 20 30
kilograms
4.5 9 13.5
Answer:
Using the ratio table the dogs weight is:
30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms
-110x+40
You need to use the distributive property for this problem
You multiply 22x times -5 (which is -110x) and -8 times -5 (which is 40) to get -110x+40
Answer:
You did it correctly what answer you want ??
Answer:
The number is 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Five more than a certain number is 11 less than double the number
x+5 = 2x-11
11+5 = 2x-x
16 = x
First, let's cancel out the x by multiplying 2x + 18y = -9 by -2.
-2 ( 2x + 18y = -9) = -4x -36y = 18
Then, we combine the two equations.
-4x + 4x = 0
18y - 36y = -18y
-27 + 18 = -9
Our new equation is -18y = -9.
Now, divide both sides by -18.
-18y / -18 = y
-9/ -18 = 1/2
y = 1/2
We can plug in a value for y since y = 1/2 now.
Let's use 2x + 18y = -9
Plug in y.
2x + 18(1/2) = -9
2x + 9 = -9
Then, subtract 9 from both sides.
2x = -18
Divide by 2.
2x/2 = x
-18/2 = -9
x = -9
Lastly, we can plug in both x and y values to see it works.
2(-9) + 18(1/2) = -9
-18 + 9 = -9
Therefore, the values of x and y does work.
x = -9
y = 1/2
