Answer:

The answer SHOULD be 7/8=224/x;256 pounds.

You may have made a mistake in inputting it here on Brainly. So look for the one that matches that.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is what we know:

Jasper = 224 pounds

Balin = x

Jasper = 7/8 of x

Now we make an equation for that:

(\dfrac{7}{8})(x) = 224pounds

To match the selections we will isolate 7/8 on one side of the equation:

\dfrac{7}{8}=\dfrac{224}{x}

Using ratio and proportion we can solve for what x is. Multiply 224 by 8 and divide it by 7. Or you can do it this way too:

\dfrac{7}{8}=\dfrac{224}{x}

(7)(x)=(224pounds)(8)

7x=1792pounds

x=\dfrac{1792pounds}{7}=256pounds

So x = 256 pounds

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

The percentage decrease is 27%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent decrease, first find the difference in the two costs.

$205,000 - $149,650 = $55,350

Now divide that number by the original cost.

$55,350/$205,000 = 27%

Answer:

  a_n=-3+7(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive rule tells you the initial term of the sequence is a1 = -3, and the common difference is d=7. (7 is the value added to one term to get the next term.)

Putting these values into the formula for the explicit rule gives ...

  an = a1 +d(n -1)

  an = -3 + 7(n -1)
