so, you're correct, it is the Food industry, and it went down from 2.7 to 2.5, well, so it really went down 2.7 - 2.5 or 0.2.


well, if we take 2.7 to be the 100% from that row, what is 0.2 off of it in percentage format?


\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\ 2.7&100\\ 0.2&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{2.7}{0.2}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{0.2\cdot 100}{2.7}\implies x\approx\stackrel{\%}{7.4}

How to solve equations with the substitution method
Paul [167]

Answer:

In a system, the substitution method is one of the 3 main ways to solve a system and can be very efficient at times.

<u>Skills needed: Systems, Algebra</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Let's say we are given two equations below:

  y=4x \\ 4x-5y=-32

  We can use substitution here by substituting in for y in the second equation.   This means we put in 4x for y in the 2nd equation so we only have x variables in the equation, allowing us to solve for x.

2) Solving it out:

1) 4x-5(4x)=-32 \\ 2) 4x-20x=-32 \\3) -16x=-32 \\4)x=2\\5)y=4x = 4(2) = 8 \\ 6)y=8

We essentially substitute in that value as seen in step 1. Steps 2 and 3 are just simplifying the left side and allowing for us to solve. Step 4 is where we divide by -16 on both sides to solve for x. Step 5 and 6 show us solving for y using the value for x. We get x=2,y=8

Particle x moves along the positive x-axis so that it's position at time t is less than equal to 0 is given by x(t)= 5t^3 - 9t^2
serg [7]

Answer:

<h3>YES</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the position of the particle expressed using the expression;

x(t)= 5t^3 - 9t^2 + 7 where;

x moves along the positive x-axis

when t = 1

x(1) = 5(1)^3 - 9(1)^2 + 7

x(1) = 5 - 9 + 7

x(1) = -4 + 7

x(1) = 3

<em>Since the position of the particle is positive at t = 1, hence the particle is moving towards the right at time t = 1</em>

A supplier sells 2 and 1/4 pounds of mulch for every 1 and 1/3 pounds of gravel. The supplier sells 172 pounds of mulch and grav
polet [3.4K]

Because ratios can be written as fractions
\frac{mulch}{2.25}=\frac{gravel}{1.33}

172 =\frac{mulch}{2.25}+ \frac{gravel}{1.33}
172 - \frac{mulch}{2.25} = \frac{gravel}{1.33}
76.44 mulch = x amount of gravel = 172
Gravel = 172 - 76.44
            = 95.56

This is for literal equations <br> A=4 πr2 (r2)<br><br> i think you solve for r2
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

r^2=\dfrac{A}{4\pi}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is A=4 πr².

We need to solve the above equation for r².

We have,

A=4πr²

Dividing both sides by 4π, we get :

\dfrac{A}{4\pi}=\dfrac{4\pi r^2}{4\pi}\\\\r^2=\dfrac{A}{4\pi}

Hence, the value of r² is equal to \dfrac{A}{4\pi}.
