A water-salt mixture used for preserving vegetables calls for 3/4 cup of salt to be placed in 5 1/2 cups of water. If Rahm decides to use 1 cup of salt, how much water should he use to preserve the proper water to salt ratio?

7 1/3 cups per salt

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the mix number into a improper 11/2 and do keep change flip. so 11/2 times 4/3 and u get 44/6/. Turn that into a mixed number 7 1/3.

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1

$4034.40

the perimeter of the field is the sum of the lengths of the four sides:

47 yd + 158 yd + 47 yd + 158 yd = 410 yd

the cost of 3 ft (1 yd) of fence is 3×$3.28 = $9.84.

so the cost of jake's wood perimeter fance is

(410 yd) × ($9.84 /yd) = $4034.40
