I believe the answer is 47.
Answer:
12/13
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(-6-6)/(-7-6)=-12/-13=12/13
Step one. create a common denominator.
ex. 15
walnuts = 10/15 dried fruit= 9/15
so if you had 15/15 pounds of dried fruit you would need 16/15 pounds of walnuts
which is 1 1/15 pounds of walnuts
Answer:
We can estimate a population of 500 birds.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can estimate the total bird population using a rule of three with the information given:
If we find 5 birds with the foot band among 100 birds captured, how many birds there are in total if inicially we put foot bands in 25 birds?
5 birds with foot band -> 100 birds captured
25 birds with foot band -> X total birds
X * 5 = 25 * 100
X = 25 * 100 / 5 = 500 birds
We can estimate a population of 500 birds.
Peter's account is 910-40x, and Marla's account is 470-2x. This is a system, so you must find the number that makes both equations end up with the same number. Basically trial and error. Here is what I did:
Let's try the number 10. 910-400=510 and 470-20=450. I need a higher number.
Let's try 13 next. 910-520=390 and 470-26=444. Now the number has to be lower.
Let's try 12. 910-480=430 and 470-24=446. Close, and a little lower.
11.5 is too low, and 11.7 is too high. 11.6 has Equation 1 at 446 and Equation 2 at 446.8. Very close!
It is somewhere around 11.6. I hope that this can give you a start in figuring it out, because I don't believe in giving the complete answer, because then you do not learn anything from it.
