Answer:

13 Ocicats

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are told that an Ocicat eats 3/5 pounds of food per day.

Now, we have a bag of 19 1/2 pound of food and we want to know the number of Ocicats this will feed

What we just need to do is to divide the weight of the bag by the amount in pounds that can feed a single Ocicat

Thus, we have;

19 1/2 divided by 3/5

= 39/5 divided by 3/5

= 39/5 * 5/3

= 13 Ocicats

Answer:

A 19 1/2 lb of food will feed 4 ocicats for a week and will have 9/14 lb left.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag contains 19 1/2 lb of food.

One ocicat eats 3/5 lb in 1 day.

To find how many days you can feed 1 ocicat with 19 1/2 lb of food, we divide 19 1/2 lb by 3/5 lb.

19 1/2 ÷ 3/5 = 39/2 × 5/3 = 65/2 = 32.5

The food in 1 bag is enough to feed an ocicat 32.5 days.

A week has 7 days.

32.5/7 = 65/2 × 1/7 = 65/14 = 4 9/14

A 19 1/2 lb of food will feed 4 ocicats for a week and will have 9/14 lb left.

Which radical expressions are equivalent to the exponential expression below ? Check all that apply . (13 + 8) ^ (1/2) A. (13 +
Fantom [35]

Answer:

(B)\sqrt{21}\\(C)\sqrt{13+8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression (13 + 8) ^{1/2}

Using law of indices: a^{1/2}=\sqrt{a}

(13 + 8) ^{1/2}=\sqrt{13+8}

Also:13+8=21

Therefore:

(13 + 8) ^{1/2}=21^{1/2}\\=\sqrt{21}

A farm stand sold 12 ears of corn for 4$ .the farm stand sold 180 ears of corn at the same rate
oksano4ka [1.4K]
To answer this first we set up a proportion and then solve. Lets do it:-

\frac{4}{12}= \frac{x}{80}

Cross Multiply:-

80 · 4 = 320

Divide:-

420 ÷ 12 = 60

So, 180 ears of corn are for $60.

Hope I helped ya!!

Helppppp!!!!<br> I don’t understand it

Okay so for 2x-y > 3
Subtract -2 from each side
-y>-2x+3
Divide by -1
And when you divid you gotta switch signs
So it’s y<2x-3

3x-5y less than and equal to 25
Subtract 3
-5y is less than and equal to -3x+25
Then divide by -5
Flip since we divide
Y more than and equal to 3/5x-5
We always flip signs when we divid or multiple
I hope this help
Sorry if I’m wrong
