Answer:
x+ 1= 3
Step-by-step explanation:
^^
For this case we have the following conversion:
1 pound = 16 ounces
Then we rewrite the sack weights:
14 pounds 9 ounces = 14 9/16
9 pounds 14 ounces = 9 14/16 = 9 7/8
Then, we subtract both values:
(14 9/16) - (9 7/8) = 4.6875 = 4 + 0.6875
Rewriting:
4 + 0.6875 = 4 + 6875/1000
4 + 1375/200 = 4 + 275/40
4 + 275/40 = 4 + 55/8
Answer:
the weight of the potatoes wendy use for the potato salad is:
4 + 55/8 pounds
None of the above because it will be 3.2 or -3.2
Expand it, so you will get 9x^2 + 24x + 16
