Answer:

Proportion states that the two ratios or fraction are equal.

As per the given statement: For every 3 ounces of peanuts, there are 2 ounces of cashews. A batch has 60 ounces of peanuts.

Let x be the ounces of cashew will a batch have.

then by definition of proportion, we have;

\frac{3}{2} = \frac{60}{x}

By cross multiply we have;

3x = 120

Divide by 3 on both sides we get;

x = 40

therefore, 40 ounces of cashews will a batch have for every 60 ounces of peanuts.

The question is ambiguous.

A is right if the second hour is in terms of the original amount (16 grams). That is not how it should be done, but there is nothing in the problem restricting us from doing it that way.

B is right the way most people would do the problem. I would say you should accept this as the right answer. The 4.5% is taken away from what was left after the first hour. I would do it that way left to my own devices.

C. The % conversions are not correct. Those conversions are 35% and 45%
C is not even in contention for being right.

D Same problem as C

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

(f + g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

f(x) + g(x) = 6x - 2 + 2x + 4 = 8x + 2

(b)

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

f(x) - g(x) = 6x - 2 - (2x + 4) = 6x - 2 - 2x - 4 = 4x - 6
