A fraction is a short way to write a division problem. When you see a fraction, it means "the top number divided by the bottom number".
When you actually DO the division, the answer is the decimal that's equal to the fraction.
Decrease = New number - Original Number
% Decrease =
× 100
Decrease = 9 - 12 = -3
% Decrease =
= -0.25 × 100 = -25
Your answer =
-25
Answer:
-7/(x-5) - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
First off, to reflect an equation in the y axis, just multiply by -1. Now that it is reflected, to stretch an equation by a factor of 7, multiply it by 7. Now we have -7/x.
Then, to move an equation down by 3 units, simply subtract it by 3. Now we have -7/x - 3.
Lastly, since you want to translate it 5 units to the left, you want the equation to be undefined at x = 5 (because originally it is undefined at x = 0). To do that, set the denominator to x - 5. We arrive at our answer: -7/(x-5) - 3.
Answer:
The pair (5, 3) means x or the pounds of cabbage is 5 and y or 3 is the dollars
So 5 pounds of cabbage costs $3
Cabbage is $0.60/pound
10,6 means 10 pounds of cabbage costs $6.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just divide the $3 by the 5 pounds of cabbage to get $.60 for each cabbage.
