Arecipe for trail mix uses 7 ounces of almonds with 5 ounces of raisins.( almonds and raisins are the only ingredients.) how many ounces of almonds would be in a 1 pound bag of trail mix? explain or show your reasons

9.33 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In a recipe of trail mix there is 7 ounces of alomond and 5 ounces of raisins.

Now, finding the ounces of almonds in 1 pound bag of trail mix.

remember; 1 pound= 16 ounces.

As given Ratio of Almond and raisin in trail mix is 7:5

If we add the ratio, we get total mixture of almond and raisin.

∴

Next finding the proportion of almond in the mixture of 16 ounces.

⇒ Ounces of almonds would be in a 16 ounces bag of trail mix=

We know 16 ounces= 1 pound.

∴ 9.33 ounces of almonds would be in a 1 pound bag of trail mix.

step-by-step explanation:

this is not a question

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17
