Pacey, Alex, and Paul went fishing. They each caught one fish. Alex’s weighed twice as much as Pacey’s fish. Paul’s weighed three times as much as Pacey’s fish. Total the 3 fish weighed 342lbs. How much did each boy’s fish weigh?
pacey = x
alex = 2x
paul = 3x
x + 2x + 3x = 342
6x =342
x = 342 / 6
x = 57
Pacey's fish = 57 pounds
Alex's fish = 57*2 = 114 pounds
Pauls fish = 57*3 = 171 pounds

The perimeter of this Hexagon is 162 cm. Each longer side measures 1 cm more than twice a shorter side. Find the length of the labled x.
The length of the shorter side [tex]\( x \)[/tex] is 20 cm.
The length of each shorter side labelled [tex]\( x \)[/tex] in the hexagon is 20 cm. Here's the step-wise calculation:
1. Let [tex]\( x \)[/tex] represent the length of the shorter side.
2. The length of each longer side is given as [tex]\( 1 \)[/tex] cm more than twice a shorter side, so it is [tex]\( 2x + 1 \)[/tex] cm.
3. The perimeter of the hexagon is the sum of the lengths of all its sides, which is given as [tex]\( 162 \)[/tex] cm.
4. Since the hexagon has four shorter sides and two longer sides, the perimeter [tex]\( P \)[/tex] can be expressed as:
[tex]\[ P = 4x + 2(2x + 1) \][/tex]
5. Plugging in the given perimeter value and simplifying the equation:
[tex]\[ 162 = 4x + 4x + 2 \][/tex]
[tex]\[ 162 = 8x + 2 \][/tex]
6. Solving for [tex]\( x \)[/tex] gives:
[tex]\[ 160 = 8x \][/tex]
[tex]\[ x = \frac{160}{8} \][/tex]
[tex]\[ x = 20 \][/tex]
Therefore, the length of the shorter side [tex]\( x \)[/tex] is 20 cm.

write each equation in standard form using integers. y=2x+5
To write the equation y=2x+5 in standard form with integers, subtract 2x from both sides to get -2x + y = 5. Then, multiply by -1 to make the coefficient of x positive, resulting in 2x - y = -5.
To write the equation y=2x+5 in standard form using integers, we start by moving the terms involving x and y to one side of the equation and the constant term to the other side. The standard form of a line in two dimensions is Ax + By = C, where A, B, and C are integers, and A should be non-negative.
The given equation is already pretty close, so we subtract 2x from both sides to obtain:
-2x + y = 5
Now, we want A to be non-negative. If A is negative, we can multiply the entire equation by -1 to make A positive.
So, the equation -2x + y = 5 becomes 2x - y = -5 when multiplied by -1. This is now in standard form, with all coefficients being integers.
Graph y= 12x–3 .
Where would I put the points ?
Answer:
Look at my picture, it will show you where to plot the points, and you can also see the green checkmark above which verifies that this answer is correct. Hope this helps!
Step-by-step explanation:
This answer is in the picture. Also, it is not y = 12=-3, it's y = 1/2x-3
The person who asked this question copy pasted and the computer didn't put the symbol with the fraction.
Anyways, this is the correct answer for the problem, so make sure you look at the picture, and I hope I helped you! :)
Good luck on whatever you are doing. ;)
(02.06)Ralph needs 6 cups of milk to make a chocolate shake for his family. His measuring device measures liquids by the pint. If 1 pint is equal to 2 cups, how many pints should Ralph measure?
3 pints
4 pints
8 pints
12 pints
1 pint = 2 cups
so 6 cups / 2 cups = 3 pints

Sam wants to find the best buy on cans of tuna. He reads these four ads in the newspaper. Place the ads in order from best to worst buy. [A better buy is one with a lower cost per unit.] ITEMBANK: Move to Bottom $12.53 for seven cans$5.97 for three cans$7.95 for five cans$8.34 for six cans Best 2nd Best 3rd Best Worst
Answer: 5.97 for three cans > $12.53 for seven cans > $7.95 for five cans > $8.34 for six cans
Step-by-step explanation:
Since, $12.53 for seven cans
The cost of one can = [tex]\frac{12.53}{7} = 1.79[/tex]
$5.97 for three cans
The cost of one can = [tex]\frac{5.97}{3} = 1.99[/tex]
s$7.95 for five cans
The cost of one can = [tex]\frac{7.95}{5} = 1.59[/tex]
$8.34 for six cans
The cost of one can = [tex]\frac{8.34}{6} = 1.39[/tex]
Since, 1.99 > 1.79 > 1.59 > 1.39
Therefore, the required order of prices,
5.97 for three cans > $12.53 for seven cans > $7.95 for five cans > $8.34 for six cans

Students are planning a 3 day hiking trip in the mountains. The hike covers a distance of 18.5 kilometers. The students hike 0.28 of the total distance the first day. If they split the remaining distance equally between the second and third days how far will they hike on day three?
Answer:
They hike 9.11 km on day three
Step-by-step explanation:
Total distance traveled on a 3 day hiking trip in the mountains = 18.5 km
The students hike 0.28 of the total distance the first day.
So, Remaining distance = 18.5 - 0.28 = 18.22
Now we are given that they split the remaining distance equally between the second and third days
So, Distance traveled by them on third = Distance traveled by them on second day = Half of the remaining distance = [tex]\frac{18.22}{2} = 9.11[/tex]
So, they hike 9.11 km on day three
