Monica and Lauren plan to buy some of their dry ingredients (particularly flour, sugar, and baking soda) in prepackaged containers. Each container with the three dry ingredients weighs
22 pounds. The weight of the sugar in each container is 2 times the amount of baking soda.
Also, there are 14 pounds more flour than baking soda in each container.
The girls want to calculate the weight of baking soda in each container, but they claim that the
necessary equation is impossible because it has infinitely many solutions.
Identify an equation that proves the girls' claim is wrong and explain why that equation does not
have infinitely many solutions.



step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.

step-by-step explanation:

a

step-by-step explanation:

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11 -1> 1 -1+ a

-12 > a
