Answer: 6cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

3cups of sugar to 2cups of flour

9cups of sugar to xcups of flour

Let sugar rep s

Flour rep f

So we have;

3s=2f

9s= xf

Cross multiply

3s×xf=2f×9s

Xf=2f×9s/3s

Xf=6f

Therefore, 9cups of sugar will be to 6cups of flour

1. ) 1 thru 9 are both natural numbers and whole numbers. 0 is a whole number, but not a natural number.

2.) 6...it is a natural number because it is a counting number and it is whole, it is a whole number and it is an integer as well. It is also rational because it can be turned into a fraction 6/1.

3.) -2 is a rational number because it can be turned into a fraction -2/1, but it is not a whole number because it contains a negative.

4.) That number would be 0

<h2><u>Question</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

A fruitseller bought 50kg of the fruits. He sold 30kg of fruits for the cost price of 35kg of fruits and he sold the remaining quantity for the cost Price of 18kg of fruits. calculate his profit or loss percent in the total transaction.

<h2><u>Answer</u><u>:</u><u>-</u></h2>

let the cost price be 50x

→he sells 30kg of fruits on it's CP of 35 kg

→CP of 30kg fruits = 30x

→SP of 35kg fruits = 35x

→remaing fruits are 20kg

→he sells 20kg of fruits on CP of 16kg

→CP of 20kg fruits = 20x

→SP of 20kg fruits = 16x

→total CP is = 50x

→total SP is = (35 + 16) = 51x

→SP > CP (it means profit)

→profit = SP-CP

→ 51-50

→ 1

→ Profit% = gain/CP × 100

→ Profit% = 1/50 × 100

→ 2%

Hence the fruit seller had a profit% of 2%.

Answer:

$y=-3,250t+25,000$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The linear equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope of unit rate of the linear equation

b is the y-intercept or initial value of the linear equation

Let

t ----> the number of years since 2011

y --->the car's value

In this problem the year 2011 represent t=0

the year 2015, represent t=4 years (2015-2011)

we have the ordered pairs

(0,25,000) ----> represent the y-intercept

(4,12,000)

<em>Find the slope m</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{t2-t1}$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{12,000-25,000}{4-0}$

$m=\frac{-13,000}{4}$

$m=-\$3,250\ per\ year$ ---> is negative because is a decreasing function

we have

$b=\$25,000$ ----> value of y when the value of x is equal to zero (initial value)

substitute the given values

$y=-3,250t+25,000$
