we are given

Since, we have to solve for x
so, we will isolate x on anyone side
step-1: Add both sides 27


step-2: Divide both sides by 7


now, we can simplify it

<span>With the bag having 4/5 lb currently in it, this can be translated to 16/20 lb. Maria wants to scoop out sand until the bag has 1/2 lb, which is 10/20 lb. The scoop that Maria uses is 1/20 lb, so using the equation of 16-10 = 6, Maria can get 6 scoops of sand before the bag contains 1/2 lb.</span>
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Determine the slope of the dashed line
The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

we have
(-3,1) and (0,3)
substitute


step 2
Find the equation of the dashed line in slope intercept form

we have

---> given problem
substitute

step 3
Find the equation of the inequality
we know that
Is a dashed line and everything to the left of the line is shaded
so

see the attached figure to better understand the problem
R = 6t.....subbing in (8,48).....t = 8 and r = 48
48 = 6(8)
48 = 48 (correct)
r = 6t...subbing in (13,78)...t = 13 and r = 78
78 = 6(13)
78 = 78 (correct)
so u have 2 sets of points on this line and they are (8,48) and (13,78)
Hey there! :D
So, we know that Jane received $9 out of the $30.
Divide 9 by 30.
9/30= .3
Turn that into a percentage.
.3= 30%
We can check this by finding the other percentages.
Ruth= 15 15/30= .5 50%
Mary= 6 6/30= .2 20%
30%+20%+50%= 100% <== this works
I hope this helps!
