Diana has a 32 ounce bag of mixed nuts: 1/2 of the mix is peanuts, 1/9 of the mix is Brazil nuts, and 1/12 of the mix is cashews. How many of the bag are cashews

2.666ounce is contained in the bag

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 32 ounce of bag has mixed nuts of which 1/12 of this bag contain cashews.

(1/12 of the entire mix),

Hence,

1/12 × 32 ounce

= 1/12 × 32

= 32/12

= 2.666ounce of cashews are in the bag.

c. 4 and 1/2 pounds is the answer! : )

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
