Answer:

500 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that the total number of grams of the sample is x. We know that 30% of x is salt and we also know this quantity is 150 grams. So, we can write this as:

30% * x = 150

Remember that % is simply "out of 100", so 30% = 30/100 = 0.30. Then:

0.30 * x = 150

Divide both sides by 0.30:

x = 500 grams

Hope this helps!

Function B has a greater rate of change

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the rate of change or slope

Function A

(0,2) (3,5)

m =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

   = (5-2)/(3-0)

   = 3/3

m=1


Function B

m =(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

 = (9-6)/(6-4)

 = 3/2

 = 1.5


Function B has a greater rate of change

A boardwalk that is x feet wide is built around a rectangular pond. The combined area of the pond and the boardwalk is 4x^2+140x
Archy [21]
So when X is 0, the area of the pool is 1200. That makes A and C impossible... then you can plug in numbers...say the boardwalk is 1 ft wide, add 2 to each dimension and plug in 1 for X. (You're adding 2 because there is a tile on either side of each dimension, including corners).

32x42=1344=4+140+1200

Therefore the answer is B.
