Using proportions, it is found that $55.7 billion was donated to educational organizations.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct or inverse proportional, can be built to find the desired measures in the problem.
Of the $371 billion donated in total, 15% went to educational organizations, hence the amount is given by:
A = 0.15 x 371 = $55.7 billion.
Hence $55.7 billion was donated to educational organizations.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x+y=10
x=10-y
x=10-5
x=5
3y= -3x+30
3(10-y)= -3(10-y)+30
30-3y= -30+3y+30
30+30-30=6y
30=6y
y=5
Answer:
Option A is correct, i.e. 12.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given is the table of x&y relationship which represents an exponential function.
The average rate of change for a function can be found using the following formula:-
F_average = { f(b) - f(a) } / (b-a)
Given a = 3 and b = 5.
From the table, f(3) = 8 and f(5) = 32.
So, F_average = (32-8)/(5-3)
F_average = 24/2 = 12.
Hence, option A is correct, i.e. 12.
Answer:
5x + 32 < 50
Step-by-step explanation:
On a particular airline, bags checked in must weigh less than 50 pounds. Betty packed 32 pounds of clothes and five gifts that weigh the same amount.
If each gift weighs w pounds, then the weight of five gifts will be 5w pounds and an additional 32 pounds of clothes will make it total (32 + 5w) pounds.
Now, this total weight has to be less than 50 pounds.
Therefore, the inequality equation that can be used to find the possible weight of each gift, w is
5x + 32 < 50 (Answer)
50.1 repeateding because that is the only positive number
