Answer:

Part a) The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce

Part b) 1.25 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

Jackson bought 5 ounces of raisins for $4 dollars.

a) How much do raisins cost per ounce?

b) How many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1?

Part a) How much do raisins cost per ounce?

we know that

To find out the unit rate divide the total cost by the total weight

$\frac{4}{5} =\$0.8\ per\ ounce$

therefore

The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce

Part b) How many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1?

we know that

The raisins cost $0.8 per ounce

using proportion

Find out how many ounces of raisins can be bought for $1

Let

x -----> the ounces of raisins

$\frac{1}{0.8}=\frac{x}{1}\\\\x= 1.25\ ounces$

The radius of a cylinder is 5" and the lateral area is 70 sq. in. Find the length of the altitude. 2.8" 7" 14"

algol13

The correct question is
The radius of a cylinder is 5" and the lateral area is 70pi sq. in. Find the length of the altitude.

we know that

[surface lateral area]=(2*pi*r)*height
height= [surface lateral area]/(2*pi*r)
surface lateral area=70*pi in²
r=5 in
so
height= [70*pi]/(2*pi*5)------> 7 in

the answer is
7 in

HELP 10 POINTS AND BRAINLIEST The triangles below are similar. In each traingle there is a 53°angle and a right angle. What is t

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since both triangles are similar, we know this because they have 2 angles in common, they both have the same third angle.

To find the third angle, we use the angle sum. The sum of angles in a triangle will always equal 180 degrees. We are given a right angle which is 90 degrees and another angle, which is 53 degrees. Knowing this:

90 + 53 + x = 180 (I have chosen to call the third angle x)

when rearranging this we get

180 - 90 - 53 = x

now we solve

x = 37 degrees

Hope this helps,

Corinne and Aretha are having a 26-mile race. Corinne gave Aretha a head start by letting her begin 3.5 miles in front of the st

Ronch [10]

From the table, the speed of Corinne is given by

$speed=slope= \frac{2.5-1.25}{20-10} = \frac{1.25}{10} =0.125 \ miles / minute$

From the graph, the speed of Aretha is given by

$speed=slope= \frac{5.5-4.5}{20-10} = \frac{1}{10} =0.1 \ miles / minute$

The distance from the starting point of Corinne at any time t is given by D = 0.125t while the distance from the starting point of Aretha at any time t is given by D = 3.5 + 0.1t

Let t be the number of minutes after the start of the race when Corinne catchs Aretha, then

0.125t = 3.5 + 0.1t
0.025t = 3.5
t = 3.5 / 0.025 = 140

Therefore, the number of minutes after the start of the race that Corinne will catch Aretha is 140 minutes.
