Answer:
its right
Step-by-step explanation:
.33 because the 2 needs to round up hecause there is a number greater than 5 after it
Answer: 0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, to answer this question we have to write an equation with the information given:
Fifteen percent of the pigment in paint color A is black
15% = 15/100 = 0.15 (decimal form)
0.15 A
Sixty percent of the pigment in paint color B is black
0.6 B
An unknown amount of paint color B is mixed with 40 ml of paint color A,
SO:
0.15 (0.40)
0.6 (x-0.40)
x = total amount of paint in the mixture of the two colors
The result is a paint that contains 25% (0.25 in decimal form)black pigment (x)
0.15(40) + 0.6(x – 40) = 0.25(x)

Answer:
Steak sandwich = x = 4
Cheese fries = y = 1.75
Taco salad = z = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let :
Steak sandwich = x
Cheese fries = y
Taco salad = z
This week:
x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 - - - - (1)
Last week :
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - - (2)
Two weeks ago :
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
Taking (1) and (2)
x + 2y + 2z = 11.50 ___(1)
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 ___(2)
Multiply (1) by 2 and (2) by 1 and subtract
2x + 4y + 4z = 23
2x + 3y + z = 15.25
_______________
y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4)
Taking (2) and (3)
2x + 3y + z = 15.25 - - (2)
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
Multiply (2) by 1 and (3) by 2 and subtract
2x + 3y + z = 15.25
2x + 8y + 2z = 26
______________
-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5)
Lets solve (4) and (5)
y + 3z = 7.75 - - - - (4) - - - multiply by 5
-5y - z = - 10.75 - - - - - (5) - - - multiply by 1
Then add the result :
5y + 15z = 38.75
-5y - z = - 10.75
____________
14z = 28
z = 28 / 14
z = 2
To find y ; put z = 2 in (4)
y + 3z = 7.75
y + 3(2) = 7.75
y + 6 = 7.75
y = 7.75 - 6
y = 1.75
From equation 3 ;
x + 4y + z = 13 - - - - - (3)
x + 4(1.75) + 2 = 13
x + 7 + 2 = 13
x + 9 = 13
x = 13 - 9
x = 4
Hence,
Steak sandwich = x = 4
Cheese fries = y = 1.75
Taco salad = z = 2
Change % = (77-70)/77 *100
= 100/11 = 9.1 % decrease
option C)
hope it helped
