I need the answers to these if you can’t read it it says “You drink 16 Fluid ounces of milk for breakfast every morning”.
Reika [66]

Answer: A. y = 16 x

B. 8 days

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Here, 16 Fluid ounces of milk is used for breakfast every morning.

In one day the consumption of milk = 16 fluid ounces

In x days the consumption of milk = 16 x fluid ounces

Thus, if y be the total milk in ounces that is used in x days,

The required function,

y = 16 x

B)  In 1 day,  consumption of milk = 16 ounces

⇒ 16\text{ ounces milk } = 1 \text{ day}

⇒ 8\times 16\text{ ounces milk } = 8\times 1 \text{ day}

⇒ 128\text{ ounces milk } = 8 \text{ day}

Since, 128 ounces = 1 gallon

⇒ 1\text{ gallon milk } = 8 \text{ day}

In 8 days, 1 gallon of milk will consumed.

By what percent will the product of two numbers change, if the first number increases by 70%, while the second number decreases
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

2%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the first number

It increases by 70 %

The new number is

m = x+ .70x

   = 1.7x

Let y be the second number

It decreases by 40 %

The new number is

n =y - .40 y

  = .6y


The product of the original numbers is xy

The product of the new number is

mn = (1.7x * .6y) = 1.02xy

The new number is larger than the old number so it is an increase.

Percent increase is  new - original divided by original  times 100%

Percent increase = (1.02 xy - xy)

                                -----------------  * 100%

                                 xy  

                           = .02 xy

                                ------- * 100 %

                                 xy  

                            = .02 * 100 %

                             = 2%
