Answer:
85-86%
Step-by-step explanation:
Make it an equation
You want to find the percent out of a hundred, so 42 is 100 since it is all of the questions and 36 is the unknown percent X
36/42 = X/100
36 X
42 100
Cross multiply
Do math and solve for X
36 x 100 = 42 x X
3600=42X
X=85.71
Answer:
Brand 1
Step-by-step explanation:
4 Oz of coffee is 1.15
8 Oz of coffee is another 1.15 added, because it is another 4 Oz of coffee
12 Oz is another 1.15 added, it's another 4 Oz of coffee
And so on.
30 M&Ms
1) Gathering the data
12-ounce bag of trail mix = 18 M&Ms
20-ounce bag=?
2) Assuming that the M&Ms are placed in following a constant rate we can write the following proportion:
12 --------------- 18
20 --------------- y
<em>Cross multiplying it due to the first property of proportions</em>
<em />
12y =20 x 18
12y = 360
y=30
3) So, I'd expect to find 30 M&Ms at a 20-ounce bag of trail mix.
Direct variation means that the line goes through the origin of the graph, so you know that the line must go through point (0,0). Using that along with the given point, you can find the slope of the line.
m =

m =

m =

m = 6
Now that you know the slope of the line you are looking for is 6, you can plug that into a point-slope form equation and find the equation of your line.
y - y_1 = m (x - x_1) Plug in either set of coordinate. I chose (3, 18).
y - 18 = 6 (x - 3) Use he Distributive Property
y - 18 = 6x - 18 Add 18 to both sides
y = 6x
The equation of a direct variation line that includes the point (3, 18) is
y = 6x.
