5th grade math lesson 7.9 a vet weighs 2 puppies. the small puppy weighs 4 1/2 pounds. the large puppy weighs 42/3 times as much as the small puppy. how much does the small puppy weigh

The large puppy weighs 4 1/2 x 42/3 pounds.

4 1/2 x 42/3 = 9/2 x 42/3 = 63 pounds

63 pounds for the large puppy

the large puppy weighs 63 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

A vet weighs 2 puppies. The small puppy weighs 4 1/2 pounds. Converting 4 1/2 pounds to improper fraction, it becomes 9/2 pounds.

The large puppy weighs 42/3 times as much as the small puppy. This means that the number of pounds that the large puppy weighs would be

42/3 × 9/2 = 63

the required function is .

step-by-step explanation:

from the given table it is noticed that the graph passing through (-3,7), (0,4), (3,1) and (8,-4).

it is a linear function because the value of y is decrease by one as the value of x increase by 1.

the slope of the function is

the slope of the function is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.

the slope intercept form is

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

therefore the required function is . the graph of this function is shown below.

$15 each

step-by-step explanation:

$45/3 children= $15 each
