At the gym, jasper was able to bench press 224 pounds, which was 7/8 of the weight that balin was able to bench press. which shows the correct equation and value of x, the weight that balin could bench press?

7/8= x/224; x = 196 pounds
7/8= x/224; x =256 pounds
7/8 = x/224; x= 196 pounds
7/8= x/224; x= 256 pounds

If the measure of angle 1 is 110 degrees and the measure of angle 3 is (2 x+10 degree), what is the value of x?

Is it greater than or less than7*3_9*2

Astudent is determining the influence of different types of food on the growth rate of spiders. she feeds one group of spiders two caterpillars twice a week. the other group received similarly-sized beetles twice a week. she records the amount of time required for individuals to reach sexual maturity. her hypothesis is that the spiders feeding on caterpillars will have a faster growth rate because caterpillars have a higher protein content compared to beetles. in this experiment, what is the dependent variable? spiders assigned to different feeding groups. time required to reach sexual maturity number of prey items fed twice a week. growth rates of each group.
