Eric bought a packet of toffees for his friend. The packet had 2/6 of a pound of toffee. He broke the toffee into 7 equal paper baggies. What is the weight of one of those baggies

1 / 21 pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of toffee in a packet = 2/6 pounds

Toffee is broken into 7 equal baggies ;

Weight of one of the baggies :

Weight of toffee before being broken / number of division

= 2/6 ÷ 7

= 2/6 * 1/7

= 2 / 42

= 1/21 pounds

5x+2x=49

7x=49

x=7. 35 apples

- "runner b is moving at a slower rate."

- "the graphs shown are graphs of distance(km) against time(min).

the slopes of this graphs are are given by:

slope = (change in y)/(change in x)

= (change in distance)/(change in time)

this is the formula for finding the speed. so, the slope of these graphs represent the speed of the runner.

taking each division in the graph to represent 1 on both axis:

runner a ⇒ speed = (2-0)/(1-0)

= 2/1

= 2 km/min

runner b ⇒ speed = (3-0)/(3-0)

= 3/3

= 1 km/min

this shows that   runner b is moving at a slower rate."
