Paula kitten weighs 3 1/2 pounds write this weight in the boxes using pounds and ounces.

Step by step explanation

First, we have to convert 3 1/2 into a decimal, so we have to do the following:

1/2 = 1 divided by 2 3 1/2 = 3 + (1÷2) = 0.5 (1 ÷ 2 done by long division)

Then we add the whole number.

3 + 0.5 = 3.5

Next, we multiply

3.5 x 16 = 56 ounces.

3 pounds and 8 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

1 pound (lbs) = 16 ounces (oz)

Using both pounds and ounces, the problem is asking us to eliminate the decimal and substitute it for the number of ounces (a smaller unit than pounds)

So we know it is 3 pounds, but what is half a pound equal to in terms of ounces?

Remember 1 lb = 16 oz, so 1/2 of a lb = half of 16 oz

Half of 16 (or 16 ÷ 2) equals 8

Therefore, half a pound equals 8 ounces

Combining the two units together means the boxes weigh 3 pounds and 8 ounces

x=-2

infinite number of lines, so there is an infinite number of equations.

step-by-step explanation:

there are an infinite number of line that passes through the point (-2,5)

x=-2   is one line that passes through the point

y = 5 is another line that passes through the point

(these two lines are perpendicular to each other).

since the number of   numbers are infinite and the slope is the ratio of two numbers,(change in y over change in x) we can have an infinite number of slopes.     our only condition is that it passes through the point (-2,5)
