It is not necessary that the function decreasing over a given interval always be negative.
A function f(x) (value) decreases as x increases.
This does not mean that value of f(x) is negative.
It can have positive number as range.
Answer:
approximately 22.2 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
16mi/72% =xmi/100%
72x=1600
x=22.2222222.....
<span>4x - 15 = 3 </span>
<span>4x = 3 + 15 </span>
<span>4x = 18 (divide both sides by 4 to get x) </span>
<span>4x/4 = 18/4 </span>
<span>x = 4.5 </span>
1 dozen = 12
144 / 12 = 12 dozen
12 dozen/ 3 = 4
They need 4 times the amount of flour:
3 1/4 x 4 = 13
They need 13 cups of flour
To convert from a percentage to a decimal, move the decimal twice to the left
11% = 0.11
200% = 2.00
20.07% = 0.2007
198.4% = 1.984
Hope this helps!
