Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

148 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Jon's weight loss for each week of the month is 4 lbs., 3.5 lbs. and 2 lbs. He gained 4.5 lbs. the last week.

To Find:  If Jon originally weighted 153 lbs., how much does he weigh now

Solution:

Jon's original weight =153\text{lbs}

Jon's weight loss in three successive weeks are = 4\text{lbs}

                                                                        = 3.5\text{lbs}

                                                                        = 2\text{lbs}

Total weight loss in three weeks is =4+3.5+2\text{lbs}

                                                          =9.5\text{lbs}

Jon's weight after three weeks =153-\text{weigth loss}

                                                    =153-9.5

                                                    143.5\text{lbs}

Gain in Jon's weight      = 4.5\text{lbs}

Jon's weight after 4 weeks =143.5+\text{weight gain}

                                             143.5+4.5

                                             148\text{lbs}

Jon weighs 148\text{lbs} now.

Answer 2
Answer: You have to add the weight he loss then subtract it from 153

carla the baker worked for 5 hours to make cookies .she ended with 380 cookies altogether .write an equation to express how many cookies carla made each hour

Answers

Answer:

Let c represents cookies Carla made each hour.

As per the statement: Carla the baker worked for 5 hours to make cookies.

⇒ total cookies made in 5 hours = 5c

Also, she ended with 380 cookies altogether.

then,

we have the equation;

5c = 380

Divide both side by 5 we get;

c = 76

Therefore, 76 cookies Carla made each hour.

An equation that goes with your problem is, 
380/5=c
The c is for cookies. Hope it helps!

What shape is number : 3, 4, and 7

Answers

3 is a irregular pentagon (pentagon, penta=five, regular means all equal sides and angles)

4 is , I can't see the bottom, if there are only 3 lines, then the figure is a triangle
if ther are 4 sides then it is either, (if the sides are not parrelel then the figure is a quadrilateral) (if 2 sides are parrelell then it is a trapizoid or trapezium)

7 is a quadrilateral because it has 4 sides and cannot be classified further because it doesn't have parralell sides
3 is a pentagon - it has five sides.
7 is a quadrilateral - it has four sides.
I cannot see what number 4 is, as you have cut it off with the picture.

In scalene triangle abc angle b is 45 degrees, and angle c is 55 degrees.What is the order of the sides in length from longest to shortest

Answers

First, let's find angle A.

The angles of a triangle always add up to 180 degrees.
A + B + C = 180
A + 45 + 55 = 180
A + 100 = 180
A = 80 degrees

The longest side is always opposite the largest angle.
Since A is the largest angle, the longest side is BC.
The next largest angle is C, and the next longest side is AB.
And the smallest angle B gives us the shortest side AC.

Therefore, your answer would be BC, AB, AC.
