Answer:
Jill sold more apples
1 more than Alice
Step-by-step explanation:
Jill sold 40 fruits
Alice sold 40 fruits
15% of Jill's sales is APPLES, that is:
15/100 = 0.15
0.15 * 40 = 6
Jill sold 6 apples.
Now, it is given Alice sold 5 apples.
<em>Who sold more? Of course, Jill.</em>
<em>By how much? 6 - 5 = 1 apple more</em>
So, let's look at the problem once again.
8%, or 8/100 of the bag were green jelly beans.
Let's see what we can do to find out a number of other jelly beans, not including the green ones.
We know that 92% of jelly-beans are not green.
92% is 11.5 times more than 8%
(92/8)
24 (or 8%) times 11.5 = 276
276 - number of jelly beans that are not green.
276 plus 24 = 300.
Answer: 300 jelly beans were in one bag.
Answer:
y=1/2x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
You are given the slope, 1/2. So you can plug it into the equation (y=mx+b)
You also need to plug in the x and y coordinate your given so you'll have
-3=1/2(2)+b. Then you solve for b, which is -4. You now have your answer, y=1/2x-4.
