Answer:
You will need 3 6/13 quarts of peanuts to make 3 jars of peanuts butter
Step-by-step explanation:
To make this answering seamless, we make the mixed fractions into improper fractions
Hence 2 1/2 becomes 5/2
while 2 1/6 becomes 13/6
Here we are told that a bag with 5/2 quarts of peanuts can make 13/6 jars of peanuts butter
Hence, x quarts of peanuts will make 3 jars of peanuts butter
To get the value of x, what we simply need to do is to cross multiply.
Thus, we have
5/2 - 13/6
x - 3
3 * 5/2 = 13/6 * x
15/2 = 13x/6
26x = 90
x = 90/26
x = 45/13
x = 3 6/13
<span>the x is supposed to represent the amount of miles driven in that car and the numbers in the paranthesis are supposed to be the price of the car or rental cost</span>
Answer:
4 - ( 3x - 8 ) = 21
break the bracket first ,it gives : 4 - 3x + 8 = 21
12 - 3x = 21
- 3x = 21 - 12
- 3x = 9
-x = 9/3
-x = 3
X = - 3
[ check if the answer is correct, put -3 instead of X in the above equation ! we get 4 - { 3(-3) - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 9 - 8 } = 21
4 - { - 17 } = 21
break the bracket, minus and minus will multiply and will become plus , so we have 4 + 17 = 21 , hence 21 = 21 ! therefore X = -3
Answer:
5 cans
Step-by-step explanation:
First multiply 15 by 3 to see how many ounces are needed in total: 15x3=45
Then divide 45 by 9 to see the amount of cans: 45/9=5
Answer:
The answer to your question is: width = 3 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
Perimeter = 16 meters
The room is 2 meters longer than its width, then length = width + 2
Perimeter = 2 length + 2 width
16 = 2(width + 2) + 2 width
16 = 2 width + 4 + 2 width
16 = 4 width +4
16 - 4 = 4 width
12 = 4 width
12/4 = width
3 = width
length = 3 + 2 = 5 meters
