A lab scale weighs 3 pounds, 5 ounces. Which of the following is the scale's weight in ounces(oz)?

from the provided table, the first option represents the amount of gas in gallons while the second column shows the distance in miles. Thus, (6, 144) will denote that the car can 144 miles by consuming 6 gallons of a gas.

Here we collect like terms together and solve for the unknown value of x.

7x-6=3x-26

Add 6 to both sides of the equation

7x-6+6=3x-26+6

7x=3x-20

Subtract 3x from both sides of the equation

7x-3x=-20

4x=-20

Divide both sides by 4

4x/-4=-20/4

x = -5

The value of x = -5

We extrapolate the values of a line between 10 and 15 on y-axis to meet the curve and drop another line from the intersection of the curve to meet the x-axis and read off the age of the car.

Now, let’s extrapolate in the following diagram

The intersection of the line and the x-axis is between 4 and 5 years. This means that the car is about 4.5 years old. From the options given, the age of the car is more than 3 years old.

we are asked to change 400 mg to g. We use the conversion 1g=1000mg, which we can write as:

So, 400 mg to g becomes

Looking at the given trend, it is observed that the price increases with years. From 2008 to 2012, the price is fairly constant but we expect it to be more than $130,000 in the year 2016. The expected price in 2016 is $140,000.

A dependent variable is one that when another variable changes, it also changes. In our case, the insurance premium changes if the age, model, mileage of car changes. Thus, insurance premium is the dependent variable while the other three are independent variable.

We can interpret ‘cannot exceed” as less than ‘<’. Therefore, in our inequality, the symbol < must be included. Now let’s convert the word problem into a mathematical inequality.

Money spent on supplies=s

Money spent on textbooks=t

Total money spent=money spent on supplies + money spent on textbooks

Total money spent = s+t

But the money spent cannot exceed $12,000. Then,

s+t <$12,000.
However the money spent can still be equal to $12000, as it has not exceeded it.

Therefore, therequired inequality is s + t <= $12,000.

Let xxx be the amount the friend paid for their car. The problem states:

48,000=2x−2,000

Step 1: Solve for x

Add 2,000 to both sides:

48,000+2,000=2x

Divide by 2:

x=25,000

we use the US customary system of units’ equivalent to convert from yards to inches. We know that 1yard=3 ft, and 1 ft =12 inches.

First, convert 2 ¾ into an improper fraction.

Then,

We solve the problem by first finding the amount of gallons needed for the whole trip then find the cost of the gallon.

The car uses 1 gallon to cover 25 miles, which is same as:

Now, in 3000 miles, the car will use how many gallons of gasoline?

A trip of 3000 miles will need 120 gallons. And to find the cost of 120 gallons, we proceed as follows:

The family will spend $199.20 to drive for 3000 miles.
