From the statement above, we can say that there is a direct relationship between the number of sheets used to the number of cans that can be made. That is, # of sheets is directly proportional to # of cans. We make an equation as follows:
let y = # of sheets
x = # of cans
y = kx where k is the proportionality constant
Assuming linear relationship of the two, we can use either data point as follows:
y = kx
2 = k(36)
k = 1/18
Therefore, the proportionality constant is 1/18.
Answer:
A. 1.5 pounds per block
Step-by-step explanation:
The conversion factor shows 2 blocks on the right and three 1 pound blocks on the left. It takes two 1 pound blocks to make 2 and then you get your 3rd block, making it 3 (.5 more than 2.5) needing another block to add a .5
392 boots. If you divide everything into "sets" of an unknown amount, there are 5 more "sets" of boots than sandals, also known as the 245 boots. So if you divide 245 by 5, you'll get the number of items in a "set". Then just multiply by 8 from the 8:3 ratio. If you check it, it will come out to 392 boots to 147 sandals, which I think is ridiculous since sandals are supposed to come in pairs so you should never have a odd number. But anyway, 392 - 147 = 245
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
40% 6th graders of 70 total = 28 6th graders
40% 6th graders + 20% 7th graders = 60%
100% - 60% = 40% 8th graders
40% are 8th graders therefore the answer is 28
G(f(2)) means work out whatever f(2) is then plug this into g(x).
So f(2) is 3 because we just find the x-value 2 in the left hand column and read across. This is 3.
So then we find g(3) by finding the x-value 3 in the left hand column and read across. This is 10.
So g(f(2)) = 10
