In this question a vital information has been provided. This information can be used for determining the answer to the question that is asked. It is given that 120% of a certain number is 360 pound. The 100% value of the number needs to be determined.
Let us assume the number to be = x
Then
120x/100 = 360
12x/10 = 360
12x = 360 * 10
12x = 3600
x = 3600/12
= 300
Now we can say that the 100% of the number or the actual number is 300 pounds. I hope the problem is clear to you and you can understand the trick involved in the question.
10 (13) 15
35 (37) 40
45 (48) 50
60 (61) 65
90 (93) 95
20 quarts equal 5 gallons. There are 4 quarts in a gallon so:
4 x 5 = 20
When you derive a function from another using the transformation
you're translating the graph of the parent function f(x) horizontally.
More specifically, you translate the graph k units to the left if k is positive, k units to the right if k in negative.
So, starting from the graph of f(x), you have that the graph of
is the same graph of f(x), but shifted 3 units to the left.
