The average weight in ounce for each piece of chocolate is 0.03.
Step-by-step explanation:
The heart-shaped box containing the chocolates has the weight of 2 pounds
The box contains 68 pieces of chocolates.To find the weight of each piece of chocolate, you divide the weight of the box with the number of chocolate pieces in the box.
This will be 2/68 = 0.0294117647
To the nearest hundredth you check the thousandths value and round off
In this case; 0.0294117647 = 0.03 pounds

1.5r+15=2.25r
First of all, you have to arrange the numbers according to those similar to them. So that will be;
15=2.25r-1.5r
1.5r is subtracted from 2.25r because it crossed over an equality sign to get its position close to 2.25r. And when a number crosses over an equality sign, the sign on the number chages to the opposite. 1.5r has an invisible positive sign which became negative when it crossed. Anyway;
2.25r-1.5r is the same as 2.25-1.5. And that is 0.75r
Therefore;
15=0.75r
To find out what r is, you have to divide the both sides by 0.75. This is done to remove the 0.75 close to r to finally reveal what r is. Anyway;
15/0.75=0.75r/0.75
15 divided by 0.75 is 20. And 0.75r divided by 0.75 is r. So;
20=r
r=20. So the answer is 20 movies. Hope i helped. Have a nice day.
Answer:
- rate of the boat in still water = 6.5 miles / hour
- rate of the current = 2.5 miles / hour.
Explanation:
<u>1) Name the two variables:</u>
- b: rate of the boat in still water:
With that, the net rates of the boat down the river and upstrean are:
<u>2) Now set the equations for the distance as a function of the times and the rates:</u>
- downstream: 18 miles = (b + c) × 2 hours
- upstream: 18 miles = (b - c) × 4.5 hours
<u>3) Set the system of equations:</u>
- 18 = 2(b + c) ⇒ 9 = b + c . . . Equation (1)
- 18 = 4.5 (b - c) ⇒ 4 = b - c . . . Equation (2)
<u>4) Solve the system by </u><u>elimination</u><u>:</u>
- Add equations (1) and (2): 9 + 4 = 2b
- Divide both sides by 2: 13/2 = b
- Replace b with 6.5 in equation (2) and solve:
4 = 6.5 - c ⇒ c = 6.5 - 4 = 2.5
<u>5) Results:</u>
- b = rate of the boat in still water = 6.5 miles / hour
- c = rate of the current = 2.5 miles / hour.
