The percentage of animal wasted is the number of animal wasted over 100
85.7% of the wild caught animals are wasted
<h3>How to calculate the animal wasted</h3>
From the question, we have:
Animals caught = 6 pounds
Salmon = 1 pound
The total weight in the system is:
Total = 6 pounds + 1 pound
So, we have:
Total = 7 pounds
The percent of wild caught animals wasted is then calculated as:

Simplify

Hence, 85.7% of the wild caught animals are wasted

Answer: Choice A
y = (-3/4)(x + 4) + 6
=====================================================
Let's go through the answer choices
- Choice A is something we'll come back to
- Choice B is false because the line does not go uphill as we move from left to right. The graphed line has a negative slope, which contradicts what choice B is saying.
- Choice C is false for similar reasons as choice B. The slope should be negative.
- Choice D has a negative slope, but the y intercept is wrong. The y intercept should be 3. So choice D is false as well.
We've eliminated choices B through D.
Choice A must be the answer through process of elimination.
------------
Here's an alternative method:
If we started at a point like (0,3) and move to (4,0), note how the slope is -3/4
This is because we've moved down 3 units and to the right 4 units.
m = slope = rise/run = -3/4
We can also use the slope formula m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to see this.
Then we pick on a point that is on the diagonal line. It could be any point really, but the point your teacher used for choice A is (x1,y1) = (-4,6)
So,
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 6 = (-3/4)(x - (-4))
y - 6 = (-3/4)(x + 4)
y = (-3/4)(x + 4) + 6
Multiplying fractions is just multiplying the numerators together and the denominators together.


To find out which one is bigger, we need a common denominator. The LCM of 7 and 21 is 21, so convert the first fraction into a denominator of 21. 7 goes into 21 three times, multiply this to the numerator and denominator:

Now just compare the numerators to see which one is bigger.

therefore,
18 + 18h = 180, subtract 18 from 180, then divide by 18 and that should give you 9.
9 = h
