X=2.5
Explanation:
So you would expand the parentheses on the left
4(x)+4(7)38
Which equals
4x+28=38
Then subtract 28 from both sides
4x=38-28
4x=10
Then divide by 4 10/4=2.5
X=2.5

the food pantry distribution 10 oz bags of rice if 3 5 lb bags are donated to the pantry how many 10 ounce bags can be made

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

24 bags can be made from three 5 pounds bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Three 5 pound bags are donated.

Total weight of bags = 3*5 = 15 pounds

We know that:

1 pound = 16 ounces

15 pounds = 16*15 = 240 ounces

A bag weighs 10 ounces.

Number of bags = $\frac{240}{10}$

Number of bags = 24 bags

Hence,

24 bags can be made from three 5 pounds bags.
