One whole jar= 3/3 or 1
Set up a ratio comparing the two sets of measurements.
2 2/4 ounces of peanuts is to 2/3 of a jar as x ounces of peanuts is to 3/3 of a jar.
x= ounces in 1 whole jar
2 2/4 / 2/3= x / 3/3
cross multiply
(2 2/4 * 3/3)= (2/3 * x)
convert to improper fractions
10/4 * 3/3= 2/3x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(10*3)/(4*3)= 2/3x
30/12= 2/3x
divide both sides by 2/3
30/12 ÷ 2/3= x
to divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal/inverse of 2/3
30/12 * 3/2= x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(30*3)/(12*2)= x
90/24= x
simplify by 6
15/4 or 3 3/4 ounces= x
ANSWER: 3 3/4 ounces can make a full jar.

The mean is the average of a set of numbers.
So if the remaining 40% of students score 100 points, and the 60% score like 50 points, then the mean would still be 70 points because of the 40% of students that scored super high.
So yes, it can be true.
Answer:
(0, -9) (1, -5)
Step-by-step explanation:
We know from the equation y = 4x -9, that the slope of the line is 4, and the point that the line crosses the y-intercept is at -9. So, your first point would be at (0, -9) and if you go one value over on the x-coordinate, that means the y-coordinate will go 4 up. So your final point will be (1, -5). The point could also be (2, -1), (3, 3), (4, 7), (5, 11), etc.
I Hope That This Helps! :)
