Malia split up the large container of salsa that she bought equally into 5 bowls to place around her house for the party. If each bowl contained 8.5 ounces of the salsa, which shows the correct equation and value of x, the total amount of salsa in the original container?
StartFraction x over 5 EndFraction = 8.5; x = 1.7 ounces
StartFraction x over 5 EndFraction = 8.5; x = 42.5 ounces
5 x = 8.5; x = 1.7 ounces
5 x = 8.5; x = 42.5 ounces

42.5 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the amount of salsa .

Since  Malia split it up in 5 equal parts in bowls equally.

So, amount of salsa in each part = \frac{x}{5}

Since we are given that  each bowl contained 8.5 ounces of the salsa .

\Rightarrow \frac{x}{5}=8.5

\Rightarrow x =8.5 \times 5

\Rightarrow x =42.5

Thus  the total amount of salsa in the original container is 42.5 ounces

Hence the equation is \Rightarrow \frac{x}{5}=8.5 and and value of x, the total amount of salsa in the original container is 42.5 ounces .

B. \frac{x}{5} = 8.5; x = 42.5 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of salsa in container = x

Number of bowl the salsa is divided into = 5

Amount contained by each bowl = 8.5 ounces of salsa

Therefore:

\frac{x}{5} = 8.5 ---› equation

Solve for x

Multiply both sides by 5

\frac{x}{5}*5 = 8.5*5

x = 42.5

where F=force

m=mass

a=acceleration

Here,

F=4300

a=3.3m/s2

m=F/a

    =4300/3.3

    =1303.03kg

Approximately it is aqual to 1300kg

Speed=Distance/time

Here,

distance=15m

time=1sec

speed=15/1=15m/sec

Distance=Speed*time

time=15min=15*60sec=900sec

Distance travelled in 15 min=15*900=13,500m

=13500/1000 km=13.5Km
