Answer:

The ribbon cost per foot $0.6 per foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of ribbon used = (5.75 + 11.75) = 17.50 feet

17.50 feet of ribbon cost = $10.50

1 foot of ribbon cost = x

Cross Multiply

17.50 × x = 1 foot × $10.50

x = 1 foot × 10.50/17.50

x = $0.6

The ribbon cost per foot $0.6 per foot

Answer: $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount used for the ribbons = $1.50

Total feet of ribbons used = 5.75 feet + 11.75 feet = 17.5 feet

The cost of ribbon per foot will now be:

= $10.50/17.5

= $0.6 per foot

In this problem, the ratios are inversely proportional. Find the missing value. If R1 = 6, R2 = 8, and I1 = 12, what is the valu
Drupady [299]

Answer:

I_2=9

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been told that the ratios are inversely proportional in our given problem. We are asked to find the missing value.

We know that two inversely proportional quantities are in form y=\frac{k}{x}, where, y is inversely proportional to x and k is the constant of proportionality.

Let us find constant of proportionality using R_1 = 6 and I_1 = 12 in above equation.

6=\frac{k}{12}

6*12=\frac{k}{12}*12

72=k

Now, we will use 72=k and R_2 = 8 in our equation to find I_2 as:

8=\frac{72}{I_2}

I_2=\frac{72}{8}

I_2=9

Therefore, the value of I_2 is 9.

stilt scored 5 points less than twice the number scored by dunk. together they scored 43 points. how many points were scored by
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
Set up a system of equations:

s = 2d - 5
s + d = 43

Where 's' represents the number of points Stilt scored and 'd' represents the number of points Dunk scored.

Plug in 2d - 5 for 's' in the 2nd equation:

s + d = 43

2d - 5 + d = 43

Combine like terms:

3d - 5 = 43

Add 5 to both sides:

3d = 48

Divide 3 to both sides:

d = 16

Plug this back into any of the two equations to find 's':

s + d = 43

s + 16 = 43

Subtract 16 to both sides:

s = 27

So Dunk scored 16 points and Stilt scored 27 points.
