Answer:
The two given numbers are 10.5 units apart.
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract the smaller from the larger. The larger number here is 6.2. Then we have
6.2 - (-4.3) = 6.2 + 4.3 = 10.5
The two given numbers are 10.5 units apart.
Answer:
The equation for the proportional relationship is y = 2.8x.
If the relationship between two quantities is a proportional relationship, this relationship can be represented by the graph of a straight line through the origin with a slope equal to the unit rate.
Answer:
Revenue and Expense = $230
No. of attendees: 10
Step-by-step explanation:
Let n be the no. of attendees
Expense = 50 + 18n
Revenue = 23n
Break even when:
50 + 18n = 23n
50 = 5n
n = 10
23n = 230
Answer: C) Today's soup will taste the same
====================================================
Explanation:
The usual recipe has 9 tomatoes for every 12 bowls. This forms the ratio 9:12.
Divide both parts of the ratio by 12 to end up with 0.75:1
The ratio 0.75:1 means that there are 0.75 tomatoes for each bowl.
--------------
Then the restaurant updates the recipe to involve 6 tomatoes for every 8 bowls, leading to the ratio 6:8. Divide both parts by 8
The ratio 6:8 is the same as 0.75:1
---------------
We get the same ratio (0.75:1) each time we turn that second number into a 1, which means that each bowl involves the same number of tomatoes. Therefore, the taste should be the same.
Of course the concept of taste is subjective, meaning that the taste could easily vary over time even if you involved the same number of tomatoes. Also, the taste may vary from person to person. However, there should be an objective way to measure the "tomato"ness of each bowl.
