First figure out the number of pints.

1 gallon contains 8 pints

4 gallons contains x

Set up a proportion

1/4 = 8/x Cross multiply

1*x = 4*8

x = 32 pints

1 container is made of 2 pints

x containers = 32 pints

1/x = 2/32 Cross multiply

2x = 32 Divide by 2

x = 32/2

x = 16 pints.

A County Superintendent of Highways is interested in the numbers of different types of vehicles that regularly travel within his
Karolina [17]

Answer:

a) The ratio of passenger cars to pickup trucks is \frac{5}{7}

The ratio of pickup trucks to passenger cars is \frac{7}{5}

The ratio of passenger cars to total vehicles is \frac{5}{12}

The ratio of pickup trucks to total vehicles is \frac{7}{12}

b) The tape diagram is shown in the attached picture.

c) The tape diagram has 12 equal-sized parts.

d) The total quantity that the tape diagram represent is 192.

e) The value of each individual part of the tape is 16.

f) There were registered 80 passenger cars and 112 pickup trucks.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) According to the information in the problem, that for every 5 passenger cars registered, there were 7 pickup trucks registered.

So the ratios are:

Passenger cars to pickup trucks: \frac{5}{7}

Pickup trucks to passenger cars: \frac{7}{5}

If we calculate the total vehicles: 5+7=12

So, we can get two ratios more:

Passenger cars to total vehicles is \frac{5}{12}

Pickup trucks to total vehicles is \frac{7}{12}

b) We make a tape diagram where each box represents a vehicle so we draw 5 boxes for cars and 7 boxes for pickup trucks.

c) If we count the total quantity of boxes, there are 12.

d) This diagram represents the total quantity of registrations in August which is 192.

e) To get the representation of each part of the tape diagram we have to divide 192 by 12. 192÷12=16

f) Finally, we multiply 16 by the number of boxes of each type of vehicle:

Cars: 16×5=80

Pickup trucks: 16×7=112

Answer:

Jenny´s age is 19 and her mother is 43.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Plug in the first value of the set

41 is different from 62, so Jenny isn´t 12 years old.

2. Plug in the second value of the set

50 is different from 62, so Jenny isn´t 15 years old.

3. Plug in the third value of the set

59 is different from 62, so Jenny isn´t 18 years old.

4. Plug in the fourth value of the set

Therefore Jenny´s 19 years old.

5. Calculate Jenny´s mother age:

As the sum of their ages is 62 ages, we have the following equation

where

x=Jenny´s age

y=Jenny´s mother age

Therefore Jenny's mother age is 43 years old.
