Brice has 1/2 of a gallon of glue. he wants to put an equal amount of the glue into each of 6 containers, using all of the glue. brice wants to find the fraction of a gallon that will be in each container. which equation correctly represents brice’s problem?
a) 6 × 2 = 1/2
b) 6 ÷ 1/2 = 3
c) 1/2 × 6 = 3
d) 1/2 ÷ 6 = 1/12

The answer is D

Since you want to put an equal amount of glue in to 6 containers, the only thing you need to do is to divide 1/2 by 6 and the result is 1/12

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is
