This means that we will plug 3 into our x values.
Our rule is 5x.
This means that:
5(3)
This means our final answer will be 15.
Answer:
A. 16
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a ratio to solve
4 bracelets x bracelets
----------------- = -------------
12 minutes 48 minutes
Using cross products
4 * 48 = 12x
192 = 12x
Divide by 12 on each side
192/12 =12x/12
16 =x
16 dollars each because you do 8x5 which equals 40 and do 168-40 which equals 128 / 8 equals 16
Write a proportion first, change over original, like this:
8 x
16 100
(I got 8 because the difference between 24 and 16 is 8 and I got 100 because percents are out of 100.)
Cross multiply 8 by 100 and you get 800.
Divide 800 by 16 and you get 50.
It changed by 50%
Answer: The tripled tofu is 4 lb. 14 oz. Explanation: So you first want to turn your mass into the same unit, so change the pounds of tofu into ounces. There are 16 ounces in a pound, which means the total mass of the original tofu could be written as (16 oz.) + 10 oz. = 26 oz. tofu. Multiply this by 3, and you have tripled the tofu. 3 * 26 = 78. To simplify it, divide 78 oz by 16 to find pounds, and leave the remainder in ounces. 78/16 = 4 lb. 14 oz tofu.
