I always set these up as follows:

12.95 over x equals 30 over 100.

12.95 \div x = 30 \div 100
cross multiply 8 to the right and 100 to the left
12.95 x 100 = 30x
1295=30x
1295/30=x
43.166 or 43.7=x

The difference between one-fifth of a number and 4 is -75
Varvara68 [4.7K]
Think of this as (1/5)x - 4 = -75, where x is the number that we are trying to figure out. To figure this out, we want to get x by itself, so we can go:

(1/5)x=-71
x=-71*5
x=-355

So your number is -355

MNOP is similar to QRST with a scale factor of 5 : 4. MP = 85mm. What is the value of QT?
chubhunter [2.5K]
MNOP is similar to QRST with ratio of 5:4<span>. That means the MP:QT ratio would also be 5:4

The length of QT would be
</span>MP/QT = 5/4<span>
85mm/QT=5/4
85mm*4= 5*QT
5QT= 340
QT=68mm</span>

MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

slope = -1/2 and y-intercept = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

A water tank has 80 gallons of water. But the tank has a leak from which water flows at a rate of 1 gallon every 2 minutes

Rate of change is the slope

Given that rate of change is  1 gallon every 2 minutes that is 1/2. The water flows out at the rate of 1/2. since it flows out the slope is negative.

So slope = -1/2

y intercept is the initial amount of water in the tank

A water tank has 80 gallons of water. so y intercept is 80 gallons of water

y intercept = 80
