Answer:
75% bigger
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the first number be x and the second be y.
So:
And:
-----30% less than x
Substitute in
Cross multiply
Collect like terms
Make x the subject
So, the average is:
Rewrite as:
Express as percentage
This means that the average is 75% bigger than the second number
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If m is parallel to p then the angles 1 and 8 are =. If 8 and 2 are = (as said in the paper), then a and b are parallel
Answer! :
y = -2x + 5
Step by Step! :
slope intercept form:
y = mx + b
m being slope, b being the y intercept.
To find the slope, use this equation:
y^2 - y^1 / x^2 - x^1
Plug in your points.
(-1) - (7) / (3) - (-1)
-8 / 4
-2 is your slope! (y = -2x + b)
To solve for b, plug in any one of your points and solve for b. Let's use (3, -1)
-1 = -2(3) + b
-1 = -6 + b
5 = b
Your new equation is...
y = -2x + 5
If seeds are 8 per pound then you need to find the unit rate and make a proportion with how much she spent. So you can make a ratio of 1(pound) / $8 compared to x(pounds) / $10. Then, cross-multiply.
10 = 8x. Divide both sides by 8
10/ 8 = x Simplify the fraction
1 1/4 = x
So, she bought 1 1/4 pounds of seeds
