3 liters would be the smallest pot Mel can use to heat all of the soup
Answer: 12
40% = 40/100 = 0.40
"of" means "multiply" in percent word problems like this. Multiply 0.40 with 30 to get 0.40*30 = 12
Optionally, you can solve the equation below for x
part/whole = percent/100
x/30 = 40/100
x/30 = 0.40
x = 0.40*30
x = 12
much of those steps follow a similar pattern to what was mentioned earlier.
Answer:
n² + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Sequence = 2 , 5 , 10 , 17 , 26
1st difference = 3 , 5 , 7 , 9
2nd difference = 2 , 2 , 2
n² + ? = 2 , 5 , 10 , 17 , 26
This is called the Pythagorean theorem : a ² + b ² = c ². You can substitute any of the variable with any of the known numbers and then you all you have to do is isolate the variable. I hope that helps!!
