Answer: 0.4 pounds of the trail mix is oats.

To find the answer, you can set up a proportion. We can use the percent proportion below.

part/whole = percent/100

x/2 = 20/100

To solve this you cross multiply and divide.

100x = 40
x = 0.4

Which is the equation of a line that is perpendicular to 8x + 6y = –5?
IrinaVladis [17]

The perpendicular line will have an equation of y=3/4x-3/4

To find this, we first have to solve our equation for slope intercept form.

8x + 6y = -5 ----> subtract 8x

6y = -8x + -5 ----> divide by 6

y = -4/3x - 5/6.

So we know the slope of this equation to be -4/3. Since perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes, we know we can simply flip the fraction and make it a negative to get the new slope of 3/4. Since B is the only option with that slope, we know it to be the correct answer.

help. If 20 men can survive for 24 days on 15 cans of rations, how many cans will be needed for 16 men to survive for 36 days?
Semmy [17]

Answer: 29 cans.

Step-by-step explanation:

20 can survive 24 days with 15 cans.

If X is the number of days that a man can survive with one can of rations.

so X is in the units can/day

then we have that:

24/15*X = 20

X = 20*15/24 = 12.5

This means that a man can live 12.5 days with a can of food.

then, for 16 men and 36 days we have:

(36/C)*12.5 = 16

C = (36/16)*12.5 = 28.1215

And we can not have a 0.1215 of a can, so we should round it up to 29 cans.
