Answer:
B) 12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Find amount spent on clothes in July
$2800 * 8% = j
<em>j = $224</em>
2. Find amount spent of clothes in August
$224 + $126 = a
<em>a = $350</em>
3. Find the amount's percentage of the total
$350/$2800 = x
x = 0.125 = 12.5%
Answer:
Option C = 15
Step-by-step explanation:
In principle when a function <em>f(x) </em>varies directly with <em>x</em> it suggests that any changes in x results in the equivalent changes in<em> f(x)</em>. If we have two variables, i.e. <em>y</em> representing<em> f(x)</em> and <em>x</em> representing itself, any increment/decrement in <em>x</em> will result to the same increment/decrement in <em>y</em> by a factor <em>a, thus we can say that y = ax, implying y and x have the same ratio. </em>
In the given question we know that <em>
</em> when
<em>, </em>which translates as

This tells us that
varies by a factor (lets call it)
for a given value of
.
To find this factor we can just divide 45 with 9 which gives: 
Thus the factor
here is
which finally tells us that
Eqn (1) our original function.
Since we now know our function we can plug in the value for
and solve for
as follow:



Looking at the given options in the question we can conclude that the correct answer is Option C = 15

Answer:
Weight on 1 may = 104 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Weight on last may = 110 lb
Weight gain for to week = 2 x 19 = 38 lb
Weight lose for to week = 2 x 22 = 44 lb
Find:
Weight on 1 may
Computation:
Weight on 1 may = Weight on last may - Weight gain for to week + Weight lose for to week
Weight on 1 may = 110 - 44 + 38
Weight on 1 may = 104 lb
