Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Mrs. Kato has 6 bags of dried beans and a 2-pound bag of rice in one shopping bag.

In another shopping bag she has a 5-pound bag of flour.

The two shopping bags weigh the same amount.

To find:

The weight of each bag of dried beans.

Solution:

Let x be the weight of each bag of dried beans.

So, weight of 6 bags of dried beans = 6x.

According to the question,

Weight of first bag = (6x + 2) pounds

Weight of second bag = 5 pounds

The two shopping bags weigh the same amount. So,

[tex]6x+2=5[/tex]

[tex]6x=5-2[/tex]

[tex]6x=3[/tex]

Divide both sides by 6.

[tex]x=\dfrac{3}{6}[/tex]

[tex]x=0.5[/tex]

Therefore, the weight of each bag of dried beans is 0.5 pounds.

Answer 2

The weight of each bag of dried beans is 0.5 pounds.

Given that,

Mrs. Kato has 6 bags of dried beans i.e. 6x and a 2-pound bag of rice in one shopping bag.In another shopping bag she has a 5-pound bag of flour. The two shopping bags weigh the same amount.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

6x + 2 = 5

6x = 5 -2

6x = 3

x = 0.5

Therefore, we can conclude that the weight of each bag of dried beans is 0.5 pounds.

There were 7,313 more searches in the library book checkout system in January than February. In February there were 8,972 searches, how many searches were done in both months?

Answers

Given:

Searches in February = 8972

There were 7,313 more searches in the library book checkout system in January than February.

To find:

The searches in both months.

Solution:

Searches in February = 8972

There were 7,313 more searches in the library book checkout system in January than February. So,

Searches in January = 8972 + 7313 = 16285

Now,

Total number of Searches in both months = January + February  searches

[tex]=16285 + 8972[/tex]

[tex]=25257[/tex]

Therefore, total number of searches in both months is 25257.

D.subtract 3x, subtract 4, divide by -4
E.subtract 3x, subtract 4, divide by 4

(More than one answer)

Answers

Answer:

A, C & D

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 1 + 3x = -x + 4  {subtract 1}

  1 + 3x -1 = -x + 4 - 1

       3x     = -x + 3         {add x}

     3x + x = -x + 3 + x

        4x    = 3       {Divide by 4}

       4x/x = 3/4

x = 3/4

C) 1 + 3x = -x +4            {Add x}

  1+ 3x + x = - x +4 + x      

   1 + 4x  = 4    {subtract 1}

        4x = 4 - 1

        4x = 3   {Divide by 4}

D) 1 + 3x = -x + 4        { Subtract 3x}

         1    = -x + 4 -3x

         1 = -4x + 4          Subtract 4}

      1 - 4 = -4x

        -3 = -4x              {Divide by -4}

       -3/-4 = x

x = 3/4  

          x = 3/4

Laura buys a saddle in the UK for £850 Delivery is free. Steve buys the same saddle from Holland for 990 Euros. He pays 15 Euros for delivery. £1 = 1.18 Euros Including the delivery charge, whose saddle is cheaper?

Answers

Answer:

Laura's saddle is cheaper

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to convert from euros to pound and compare which purchase is more expensive.

given data

we are told that Steve buys the same saddle from Holland for 990 Euros

given the exchange rate in pounds, it will be

£1 = 1.18 Euros

 x=990 Euros

cross multiply we have

x=990/1.18

x= £838.98

Steve buys at  £838.98

delivery charge is  15 Euros to pounds

£1 = 1.18 Euros

 x=15 Euros

cross multiply we have

x=15/1.18

x= £13.04

to expenses incurred by Steve= £838.98+£13.04

=£852.02

Laura's saddle is cheaper

Which equation describes the line that has a slope of –2 and passes through the point (1,3)?

Answers

Answer:

y = -2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is writen like this; y = mx + b. Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

We know the slope, so, find the y-intercept.

y = -2x + b

3 = -2(1) + b

3 = -2 + b

5 = b

Put everything we know/solved for into the original formula.

y = -2x + 5

A number divided by 42 has a quotient of 28 with a remainder of 4. What is the number?
O 1,064
o 1,172
O 1,176
O 1,180

Answers

Answer:

D. 1,180

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Divisor = 42

Quotient = 28

Remainder = 4

A quotient of 28 simply means that a number divided by 42 would have a value that is equal to 28 without any remainder.

Let the unknown number be X

X = (42*28) + 4

X = 1176 + 4

X = 1180.

Method II

Y/42 = 28

Cross-multiplying, we have;

Y = 28 * 42

Y = 1176

Given that the remainder is 4

X = Y + 4

X = 1176 + 4

X = 1180.

Therefore, the number is 1180.

Gabriella ran several laps around a 1/4-mile track. Then she ran 2 1/2 miles on a trail. In all, she ran 4 miles. Write and solve an equation to find l, the number of laps Gabriella ran.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

1/4×l +(2 1/2) = 4l = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

For l laps around a 1/4 mile track, the total distance is ...

  l×(1/4)

After adding 2 1/2 miles to that, Gabriella's total distance was 4 miles:

  l×(1/4) +(2 1/2) = 4 . . . . an equation to find l

__

We can solve this equation by subtracting 2 1/2, then multiplying by 4.

  l×(1/4) = 1 1/2

  l = 4(1 1/2)

  l = 6

Gabriella ran 6 laps on the track.
