Answer: y = -0.2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation: Find the y intercept (b) and then find the slope (m) and use the equation y = mx + b.
Divide.
1/3 / 5
Or multiply by the reciprocal of 5:
1/3 * 1/5 = 1/15
Therefore 1/15 cup of flour is used to make 1 dinner roll.
We can set up a proportion:
5/1/3 = x/5 2/3
Multiply 5 2/3 to both sides:
28 1/3 / 1/3 = x
85 = x
So 85 rolls can be made with 5 2/3 cups of flour.
Answer:
<em>39 is 26.71% of 146</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage solution with steps:
Step 1: We make the assumption that 146 is 100% since it is our output value.
Step 2: We next represent the value we seek with x.
Step 3: From step 1, it follows that 100% = 146.
Step 4: In the same vein, x% = 39.
Step 5: This gives us a pair of simple equations:
100% = 146(1).
x%=39(2).
Step 6: By simply dividing equation 1 by equation 2 and taking note of the fact that both the LHS (left hand side) of both equations have the same unit (%); we have
100/x% = 146/39
Step 7: Taking the inverse (or reciprocal) of both sides yields
x% / 100% = 39/146 ⇒ x= 26.71%
Therefore, 39 is 26.71% of 146.
