40-15=g so they scored 25 this year and 25+15=40
Directly proportional, both increase/decrease, Multiple k(constant you needed to solve for)..
Inversely --one increases as the other decreases, increase the denominator & fraction gets smaller.... So
Problem:
Dirextly to X (× by X)
Inversely to Y, (÷ by Y)
Z= k X/Y
Solve, working backwards: Z =5 becomes
5 = k (X) ÷ (Y). And
X=15 and Y =9 becomes
5= k(15)/(9). Undo ÷9, ×9 both sides
45= k(15). Now undo ×15 by ÷15 both sides
45/15 = 3. So k=3, (also called your constant of variation)....and your Equation/Proportion becomes...
Z = 3X/Y
Use the new #s.... X=23, Y=14
Z= 3×23÷14 = 69/14. If they want spirochete answer divide and round to corresponding # if decimals
Answer : 0.21%
Step - by - step explanation :
What is 24% of 87% ? 0.2088%
0.2088% -- round it --> 0.21%
-5x - 5 = 3x + 19
---Move the x's to one side
-5x - 3x - 5 = 3x - 3x + 19
-8x - 5 = 19
---Isolate the -8x by removing the -5 from the left side
-8x - 5 + 5 = 19 + 5
-8x = 24
---Divide both sides by -8 to get x by itself
x = -3
Hope this helps!
