Hi!

We will solve this using ratios, like this:

4 1/2 = 4,5 kg of olive oil for 27 $

1 kg of olive oil for x $

_____________________________

x = (27*1)/4,5

x = 27/4,5

x = 6 $ per kilogram

Hope this helps!

How many weeks of flea treatment would Jim’s dog get from one package if each treatment only lasted 3 weeks In a normal year whe

4vir4ik [10]

Solution

Number of weeks in a year = 52 weeks

If in a normal year when each package of flea treatment lasts for 4 weeks, then in a year there Jim's dog will have to be treated for

$\frac{52}{4} =13 times$

Where as, when the fleas are bad in a year, the treatment lasts for only 3 weeks.

Then in a year Jim's dog would get

$\frac{52}{3} =17 times$

So Jim's dog will get 17- 13 =4 treatments more.

4 treatments that are made in 3 weeks each will be 4×3 =12 weeks more treatment

The figure below shows the dimensions of a city park in feet. Shannon thinks the area of city park is 73,084 square feet. Do you

Andreyy89

Answer:

We need to solve for the 4th side

4th side base = 75.5 -60.5 = 10 feet

4th side height = 16

4th side LENGTH^2 = 10^2 + 16^2

4th side = sq root (356) = 18.8679622641

Trapezoid Area = [(sum of the bases) / 2 ] * height

Trapezoid Area = [(136)/2] * 16

Trapezoid Area = 1,088 square feet, which is MUCH smaller

than 73,084

Nina can ride her bike 63,360 feet in 3,400 seconds, and Sophia can ride her bike 10 miles in 1 hour . What is Nina’s rate miles

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Nina's rate in miles per hour is 2.7 miles/hour

Nina bikes faster

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

1 hour=3,600 seconds

1 mile=5,280 feet

<em>Convert feet to miles</em>

63,360 feet=63,360/5,280=12 miles

Convert seconds to hours

3,400 sec=3,400/3,600=0.94 hours

Find Nina's rate in miles per hour

12/0.94=12.7 miles/hour

Sophia's rate in miles per hour is 10 miles/hour

Compare the rates

12.7 miles/hour > 10 miles/hour

therefore

Nina bikes faster
