Answer:

The equation is (2+x) / 4 = 3

Total amount of chopped vegetables = 10 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Meat=2 pounds

Vegetables=x

Mixture= 2+x

She divides the mixture into 4 equal portions

(2+x)/4

Each portion weighs 3 pounds

(2+x)/4=3

Solve the equation

(2+x)/4=3

Cross product

(2+x) = 4 × 3

2+x=12

x=12-2

=10

x=10 pounds

Total amount of chopped vegetables = 10 pounds

Lunna [17]
C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.

Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395.  We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85.  We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00.  Altogether this gives us 
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%.  This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.

Solve for the formula for the indicated variable. Solve A=1/2bh for b.
choli [55]
B = 2A/h

The way you would get this is first by clearing the fraction. So in order to clear the fraction, you have to multiply the equation by the denominator.

2(A = 1/2bh)

2A = 1bh

2A = bh

Then you have to isolate the variable. So you'd divide bh by h in order to get b by itself. So you'd end up with:

2A/h = bh/h

2A/h = b

AB has endpoints at A(-4, 4) and B(5, -1).<br> Find the coordinates<br> (x, y) of the midpoint.
kramer

Answer:

The midpoint is at ( 1/2, 3/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Midpoint

To find the x coordinate of the midpoint

Add the x coordinates of the endpoints and divide by 2

( -4+5)/2 = 1/2

To find the y coordinate of the midpoint

Add the y coordinates of the endpoints and divide by 2

( 4+-1)/2 = 3/2

The midpoint is at ( 1/2, 3/2)
