Answer:
any equation that have the slope of -2
When a quantity grows (gets bigger), then we can compute its PERCENT INCREASE:
[beautiful math coming... please be patient] <span><span>PERCENT INCREASE=<span><span>(new amount−original amount)</span>original amount</span></span><span>PERCENT INCREASE=<span><span>(new amount−original amount)</span>original amount</span></span></span>
Some people write this formula with <span><span>100%</span><span>100%</span></span>
at the end,
to emphasize that since it is percent increase, it should be reported as a percent.
So, here's an alternate way to give the formula:
<span><span>PERCENT INCREASE=<span><span>(new amount−original amount)</span>original amount</span>⋅100%</span><span>PERCENT INCREASE=<span><span>(new amount−original amount)</span>original amount</span>⋅100%</span></span>
Recall that <span><span>100%=100⋅<span>1100</span>=1</span><span>100%=100⋅<span>1100</span>=1</span></span>
.
So, <span><span>100%</span><span>100%</span></span>
is just the number <span>11</span>
!
Multiplying by <span>11</span>
doesn't change anything except the name of the number!
Hope this helps
Answer:
a) The system that models the situation is:
p + 0.2m = 3
p + m = 5
b) The solution of the system is:
m = 2.5
p = 2.5
Step-by-step explanat:
It is desired to obtain 5 pounds of a mixture containing 40% peanuts and 60% almonds.
It has a mixture of 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.
p: number of pounds of peanuts
m = amount of mixture
The equation that represents the amount of peanut and mixture that is needed is:
p + m = 5 pounds
m = 5-p (i)
The amount of peanut in total that the mixture should have is:
p + 0.2m = 0.6 (5)
p + 0.2m = 3 (ii)
a) The system that models the situation is:
p + 0.2m = 3
p + m = 5
Now we substitute (i) in (ii) and clear p.
p + 0.2 (5-p) = 3
p-0.2p = 2
p = 2.5 pounds
Now we find m
m = 5 - 2.5
m = 2.5 pounds
b) The solution of the system is:
m = 2.5
p = 2.5
