The owner of a tree service has a chainsaw that uses a mixture of 200 ounces of gasoline and 2 ounces of oil. The owner needs to make at least 5 gallons of the oil-gasoline mixture.
If the owner knows that l gallon is equal to 128 fluid ounces, which inequality can be used to determine the amount of oil needed?

You need 6oz (or 6.3366oz) of oil for the 5 gallon mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, write down the essentials of this word problem.

The chainsaw uses 200 ounces gasoline (or gas) and 2 ounces oil.

The owner needs 5 gallons (640 ounces) of the mixture.

The chainsaw uses a 202 ounce mixture (200oz gasoline 2oz oil).

The mixture is 0.0099 repeating % oil and 0.9900 repeating % gasoline.

0.0099 (oil) x 640 (final mixture) = 6.3366oz repeating oil needed.

0.9900 (gas) x 640 (final mixture) = 633.6633 repeating gas needed.

This means you need 6.3366oz or 6oz (rounded) for the 5 gallon mixture.

CHECKING WORK:

6.3366 + 633.6633 = 639.99999997

OR ROUNDED:

6 + 634 = 640

75

step-by-step explanation:

you do x-29=46 (the number of cantaloupes sold)

in order to find x, you have to find what minus 29 equals 46, meaning you'd have to add 29 to 46.

29+46=75

if you replace x with 75, the equation looks like:

75-29=46

x=75

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
