X = shorter piece
y = longer piece = 5x
shorter piece + longer piece = 60
x + 5x = 60
6x = 60
x = 60/6
x = 10 in. <== shorter piece
y = 5x
y = 5(10)
y = 50 in. <== longer piece
2. unit price = $ ÷ oz
<span>a) 64 fl oz for $2 = 2/64 ≈ $0.031 per ounce </span>
<span>b) 256 fl oz for $7.5 = 7.5/256 = $0.029 per ounce </span>
<span>c) buy wholesale because 0.029 < 0.031 </span>
<span>3. unit rate means 1 for the miles </span>
<span>3/10 in ÷ 7/8 mi </span>
<span>= 12/35 inches per mile ...</span>
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : An equation relating packets to bytes of information :
where<em> p</em> represents the number of packets and <em>b</em> represents the number of bytes of information.
1 byte = 8 bits
Let x= Number of bits such that 1 b = 8x
Put b = 8x in given equation , we get

Divide both sides by 8 , we get

Hence, the equation represent the relationship between the number of packets and the number of bits : 
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
tempuratures below zero are negative.
Hello good person. The answer is C, (4,7). If you replace the x's in both equations (4) and the y's i both equations (7) you would get your answer for both.
