Answer:

She could make 5 of each type.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of 0.5 pound hamburgers and y is the number of 0.25 pound hamburgers:

0.5x + 0.25y = 3.75

Divide through by 0.25:

2x + y = 15

Some whole numbers which fit this relation  are x = 5 and y = 5.

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Number of 0.5-pound is a
  • Number of 0.25-pound is b
  • Total weight is 3.75 pounds

<u>Equation for the number of hamburgers:</u>

  • 0.5a + 0.25b = 3.75

simplified to:

  • 2a + b = 15

<u>Minimum number of each size is zero, then the maximum possible number is:</u>

  • a = 0 ⇒ b = 15
  • b = 0 ⇒ 2a = 15 ⇒ a = 7 so b can't be zero, 2*7 + b = 15 ⇒ b = 1

<u>So possible numbers are within the range:</u>

  • 0.5 pound ⇒ 0 to 7
  • 0.25 pound ⇒ 1 to 15

A shelf is the shape of a triangle. Find the angles of the triangle if the measure of the angle are in the ratio x:x:4x.
lesantik [10]
The value of x is 30; hence 4x is equal to 120. That is because the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180. So, add x, x and 4x together, you get 6x. Divide 180 by 6, you get 30. Hope this helped!
