Answer:
8. X=60 and z=60
9. angle x=80
I think this is the answer, sorry if it isn't let me know.
x - 4
4 less than x means that we subtract 4 from x.
You have to find the unit rate, which in this case means the amount of fish you need per serving of soup.
If 16 oz of fish makes 24 servings, then 16/24 oz = 2/3 oz makes 1 serving.
Now multiply both quantities by 10, so that 10 servings require 20/3 oz ≈ 6.67 oz of fish.
A more direct way to do this is to solve for <em>x</em> in the following equation:
(16 oz fish) / (24 servings) = (<em>x</em> oz fish) / (10 servings)
Then (omitting units)
<em>x</em> = 10 • 16 / 24 = 20/3
Remember you said the scale shows you 10% heavier.
So that's an increase of 10%
So value = 10% + 100% = 110%
So scale would show 110% of 82
110% of 82
= (110/100) * 82
= 1.1 * 82
= 90.2
OR
We can simply find 10% of 82 and add it to the original 82.
10% of 82
(10/100) * 82
0.1 * 82 = 8.2
8.2 + 82 = 90.2 Same answer as before.
So scale shows 90.2 kg.
