To solve this problem, you must set it up like this : 6/x = 15/100
Now, cross-multiply. 15x = 600
Divide by 15 on each side.
x=40.

6 is 15% of 40.

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

22 + x ≤ 40

x ≤ 18 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Maximum weight = 40 pounds

Initial weight = 22 pounds

Let Maximum weight that can be added = x

Mathematically, this means :

Initial weight + additional weight ≤ 40

That is ;

22 + x ≤ 40

Additional weight, x :

x ≤ 40 - 22

x ≤ 18 pounds

If you assume the samples are representative how many whole wheat bagels might you infer are sold at each store

Alexxandr [17]

Maurine owns three bagel shops. Each shop sells 500 bagels per day. Maureen asks her store managers to use a random sample to see how many whole wheat bagels are sold at each store each day. Shop A has total of 50 bagels in sample and 10 are whole wheat bagels. Store B has a total of 100 bagels in sample and 23 are whole wheat bagels. Shop C has 25 total bagels in sample and 7 are whole wheat bagels.

We find fraction of whole wheat bagels to the sample for each shop using given information

Shop A = $\frac{10}{50} = 0.20$
