If you take 240 divided by 12 = 20
Then take 180 divided by 12 = 15
Take 20-15=5 after 5 days they had 180lbs left

Answer:

5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up linear equation; food= 240-12(day) f=240-12d

f(1)=240-12(1)=240-12=228

f(2)=240-12(2)=240-24=216

Now set food to equal 180, solve for days:

180=240-12d

-240  -240

-60=-12d

/-12  /-12

5=d

To check: f(5)=240-12(5)=240-60=180

The table shows how much a store charges for certain numbers of pencils. Number of pencils (p) Cost (c) 4 $0.72 7 $1.26 12 $2.16
Arada [10]
Find the rate of change, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), from the data given...

(2.16-1.26)/(12-7)=0.18

(1.26-0.72)/(7-4)=0.18

Since the rate is constant, this is a linear equation of the form y=mx+b.  Furthermore, since 0 pencils cost 0, b=0, so the cost of the pencils is simply the number of pencils times 18 cents...

c(p)=0.18p  (cost with respect to pencils is 0.18 times the number of pencils)

A chemist has 100 g of a 15% saline solution that she wants to strengthen to 29%. The percentage P of salt in the solution by ma
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

D., x= 19.7 or ≈20. g

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x) = [100(15+x)]/(100+x)

When 0 g additional salt is added, x=0. we have

P(0) = [100(15+0)]/(100+0)= 15

x=0, P=15

We can see this point only on the graph D.

P(x) =29 = [100(15+x)]/(100+x)

29 = [100(15+x)]/(100+x)

29(100+x) = 100(15+x)

2900+29x = 1500+100x

2900-1500=100x-29x

1400 = 71x

x ≈ 19.7 g  or ≈20. g

From the graph D, we can see that to get 29% we need to add ≈ 20 g of salt.
