Answer:
x=17/4
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-3)/(x+2)=1/5
cross product
1(x+2)=5(x-3)
x+2=5x-15
5x-x-15=2
4x-15=2
4x=2+15
4x=17
x=17/4
F(3) = 16, you simply plug in 3 for x to find the answer.
Answer:
10 cups of milk
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a proportion, where x is the number of cups of milk for 165 cookies:
= 
Cross multiply and solve for x:
11x = 110
x = 10
So, 10 cups of milk are needed to make 165 cookies
Answer:
A, C, E
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root of 10 is approximately 3.16, which is greater than pi which is equal to about 3.14, which shows that C is correct as well. The square root of 11 is 3.31, and the square root of 5 added to the square root of 6 is equal to about 3.69, which is greater than the square root of 11.
Let S be the amount in a savings account.
Let m be the number of months.
General equation
S = 132 + 27m
Specific question
July is the 7th month of the year including both January and July.
S = 132 + 7*27
S = 132 + 189
S = 321
Reasonableness?
Good question. You could estimate an answer.
Start with 150 dollars and say that you add 25 a month.
7 * 25 = 175
S = 150 + 175 = 325 All of this was done in my head. Since the exact answer obtained using the formula is 321, I think that's pretty reasonable using my estimate is a guide.
