Answer:
its 11 and 31
Step-by-step explanation:
got it right on test
Answer:
1 Original amount: 20
End amount: 15
<h3>(20 - 15)/20 x 100 = (5/20) x 100 = 25% decrease</h3>
2 Original amount: 30
End amount: 45
<h3>
(45 - 30)/30 x 100 = (15/30) x 100 = 50% increase </h3>
3 Original amount: 625
End amount: 550
<h3>
550/625 =550 ÷ 625 =0.88</h3><h3>
0.88 =0.88 × 100/100 =(0.88 × 100)/100 =88/100 =88% decrease</h3>
4 Original amount: 320
End amount: 112
<h3>
(112-320):320x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =(112:320-1)x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =35-100 = -65% decrease</h3>
5 Original amount: 165
End amount: 222.75
<h3>
165/222.75 =165 ÷ 222.75 ≈0.740740740740741</h3><h3>
0.740740740740741 =0.740740740740741 × 100/100 =(0.740740740740741 × 100)/100 ≈74.074074074074/100 =74.074074074074% ≈74.07% Increase </h3>
6 Original amount: 326
End amount: 423.80
<h3>
(423.8-326):326x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =(423.8:326-1)x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =130-100 = 30% Increase </h3>
7 Original amount: 27
End amount: 38.61
<h3>
(38.61-27):27x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =(38.61:27-1)x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =143-100 = 43% Increase</h3>
8 Original amount: 60
End amount: 70.02
<h3>
(70.02-60):60x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =(70.02:60-1)x100 =</h3><h3>
100 =116.7-100 = 16.7% Increase</h3>
Equations:
Let x=the larger number
1. y=x-3
2. y=1/3(x+9)
<h3>
Answer: 6 ounces</h3>
========================================================
Work Shown:
(6 servings)/(4 oz of sauce) = (8 servings)/(x oz of sauce)
6/4 = 8/x
6*x = 4*8
6x = 32
x = 32/6
x = 5.333 approximately
x = 6 we round up despite 5.333 being closer to 5, than it is to 6.
If we went with 5 ounces, then we wouldn't clear the hurdle needed to serve 8 people.
The section below goes over why this is the case in more detail.
---------
6 servings : 4 ounces
6/4 servings : 4/4 ounces
1.5 servings : 1 ounce
So one ounce of sauce gets us 1.5 servings.
If we multiply both sides by 5, then,
1.5 servings : 1 ounce
5*1.5 servings : 5*1 ounce
7.5 servings : 5 ounces
This shows that 5 ounces of sauce will only produce 7.5 servings, which comes up short compared to 8 servings.
If we multiplied both sides by 6, then
1.5 servings : 1 ounce
6*1.5 servings : 6*1 ounce
9 servings : 6 ounces
This shows that 6 ounces of sauce yields 9 servings. We've gone overboard, but it's better to do that than come up short.
