The price:
- last year: $2.25
- this year: $.45
The decrease: $2.25 - $.45 = $1.80
2.25 : 1.80 = 100 : x
2.25 x = 180
x = 180 : 2.25
x = 80
Answer:
The percent of decrease is A ) 80%
Answer:
$320 if your saying how much in all its basically 8 times 4 add a zero to the end
Step-by-step explanation:
When you solve proportions, you have to cross multiply.
9 x
--- = --- Multiply each numerator by the opposite denominator.
11 22
(9)(22) = 11x Then, multiply.
198 = 11x Then, divide.
18 = x
This is how you do it!
So, There is a ratio of 1:2 for the orange to green.
This means that e can write an equation like this:
Let x be the orange picks
x + 2x = 12
3x = 12
x = 4
This means that there are 4 orange picks, and also 8 green picks
Now we can check that by simplifying the ratio --> 4:8 = 1:2
Therefore, your answer would be 8 green picks
Hope this helped!
