Answer:
We have, 15% × x = 85
or,
15
100
× x = 85
Multiplying both sides by 100 and dividing both sides by 15,
we have x = 85 ×
100
15
x = 566.67
4.50x + 10
X = the amount of pair of socks you buy
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
the factor of x in the equation is the slope, which is the ratio y/x indicating how many units y changes, when x changes a certain amount of units.
going from the left point to the right point x changes by +3 units, and y changes by -1 unit.
so, the slope (and factor of x in the equation) is -1/3.
and the constant term in the equation is the y (axis) intercept of the line.
this is the y value, when x = 0 (intercepting the y axis).
and we see in the graph, when x = 0, the line goes through y = 2.
so, the equation has to be
y = -1/3 × x + 2
therefore, C is the right answer.
From question,
lacy learned 34 recipes in 17 weeks,
so in 1 week she learns = 34/17 =2 recipes,
hence she learns 40 recipes in
= 40*2
=80 recipes.
The complete pattern is: 512, 256, 128, 64, 32, 16, 8, ( and extended ) 4, 2, 1!
I do this pattern in my head literally all the time!
