Answer:

400 people

Step-by-step explanation:

15 = 12

500 = x

Cross multiply

15x = 12 × 500

Divide both sides by 15

\frac{15x}{15} = \frac{12 * 500}{15}  (* means multiplication if you do not know)

\frac{12 * 500}{15} = 100 × 4= 400 people

Divide 500 by 15 that equals 33.33 then multiply that number by 12 and that equals 399.96 which is then rounded up to 400/500 people prefer eating out rather than cooking at home.

A would be (-3, 6).

B would be (-6, 3).

Anytime something is asking you to reflect off of the Y-axis, you put the original but flipped. Also, your answer will always be straight across vertically.

Rudi bought 12.5 yards of fabric to make pillows. Each pillow requires 1.75 yards of fabric. Use compatible numbers to estimate
Ipatiy [6.2K]
Hi there!

Using compatible numbers it would be:

12 ÷ 2 = 6.

Now when you divide it, the answer would be close to 6.

So, 12 ÷ 2 = 6 would be using compatible numbers.

Hope this helps ;)
