The easiest way to solve a problem like this is to cross multiply and solve
The problem gives us a ratio
2 pounds of granola = 3 pounds of raisins
which makes a ratio of

The other ratio is
? pounds of granola = 24 pounds of raisins
which makes a ratio of

To solve, set them equal to each other ...

Now we must cross multiply...
To cross multiply, we multiply
2 and 24 and we multiply
3 and x Now we have an equation to solve!
3x = 48 To solve and get your final answer, divide...
x =
x = 16
You'll need 16 pounds of granola

Answer is 0.89 sorry for bad drawing and putting 89 as the answer instead of 0.89
Answer:
y = -1/2x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
A line in slope-intercept form in y = mx + b
"m" is the slope
"b" is the y-intercept
x and y represent points on the graph
To write an equation, you need "m" and "b".
We already know m = -1/2
The point (0, 2) is the y-intercept. The y-intercept occurs when x = 0.
Points are in the form (x , y), so x = 0 and y = 2.
Therefore b = 2.
Substitute m = -1/2 and b = 2 into the equation:
y = mx + b
y = -1/2x + 2
Turn the percentage into a decimal.
6% = 0.06
Multiply.
990 * 0.06 = $54.9 (sales tax)
Add.
990 + 54.9 = $1,049.40 (total price)
Best of Luck!
