Answer:
quantity a is halfed
Corrected question;
A quantity a varies inversely as a quantity b, if, when b changes a changes in the inverse ratio. What happens to the quantity a if the quantity b doubles?
Step-by-step explanation:
Analysing the question;
A quantity a varies inversely as a quantity b,
a ∝ 1/b
a = k/b ......1
when b changes a changes in the inverse ratio;
Since the change at the same ratio but inversely, k = 1
So, equation 1 becomes;
a = 1/b
If the quantity b doubles,
ab = 1
a1b1 = a2b2
When b doubles, b2 = 2b1
a1b1 = a2(2b1)
Making a2 the subject of formula;
a2 = a1b1/(2b1)
a2 = a1/2
Therefore, when b doubles, a will be divided by 2, that means a is halfed.
12 is 75% of what
is means equals, of means multiply
12 = 75% * what
12 = .75 * what
divide each side by .75
12/.75 = .75 * what /.75
16 = what
12 is 75 percent of 16
the answer is 16
10/15-57-57 is the answer
<span>32*18=576 oz. </span>
<span>Store A offers 24-12 oz cans for $5.89. That means $5.89 gets you 288 oz. Store B offers 12-12oz cans for $3.79, so that means $3.79 gets you 144oz. </span>
<span>Store A is $5.89 per every 288 oz. You need 576 oz, which is double that. That means it will cost you twice as much as it would buying 24-12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$5.89*2=$11.78 </span>
<span>Store B is $3.79 for 144 oz. As previously stated, you need 576 oz, so you'll need to buy 4 12-packs of 12 oz cans: </span>
<span>$3.79*4=15.16 </span>
<span>So not only is Store A a better deal, but they'll save you $15.16-$11.78=$3.38 dollars. </span>
