It would be 120 because 4% of 125 is 5, so you subtract 5 from 125 to get 120. I am pretty sure that's how you do it

125*\frac{100-4}{100}=125*\frac{96}{100}=\frac{125*24}{25}=5*24=120

A young sumo wrestler decided to go on a special diet to gain weight rapidly. He gained weight at a constar
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

  • <u>5.2 kg per month.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

The measure of how fast the wrestler gained weight, in kg per month, is the  weight gain rate.

The table is:

Time (months)           Weight (kg)

    0.5                             80.6

    2                                 88.4

    3.5                              96.2

The weight gain rate, WGR, for a period may be calculated as:

  • WGR = [ weight gain ] / [period]

  • WGR = [final weight - initial weight] / [final time - initial time]

  • WGR₁ = [88.4 kg - 80.6 kg] / [2 month - 0.5 month] = 7.8 kg / 1.5 month = 5.2 kg / month

  • WGR₂ = [96.2 kg - 88.4 kg] / [3.5 month - 2 month] = 7.8 kg / 1.5 month = 5.2 kg / month.

As you see, the wrestler gained weight at a constant rate of 5.2 kg per month.

zaharov [31]

Answer:

The amount of peanuts to use is 5 pounds and that of cashews is 30 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of peanut to use to be x

Let the amount of cashews to use to be 35-x

Form equations to compare amounts for individual foods and the mixture

8x+15(35-x)=35(14)\\\\8x+525-15x=490\\\\7x=35\\\\x=5\\\\

So the pounds to be used for peanuts is 5 pounds

The pounds to be used for cashews will be 35-x= 35-5=30 pounds

Which equation represents a linear function rule for the following set of ordered pairs?
d1i1m1o1n [39]

The equation that represents the linear function for the set of ordered pairs is: A. y = -3x + 2.

<h3>What is the Equation of a Linear Function?</h3>

Equation of a linear function, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept, is expressed as y = mx + b.

Find the slope (m):

Slope (m) = change in y/change in x = (-7 -(-4)) / (3 - 2)

Slope (m) = -3/1 = -3

Find b by substituting m = -3 and (1, -1) = (x, y) into y = mx + b:

-1 = -3(1) + b

-1 = -3 + b

-1 + 3 = b

2 = b

b = 2

Substitute m = -3 and b = 2 into y = mx + b

y = -3(x) + 2

y = -3x + 2

Therefore, the equation that represents the linear function for the set of ordered pairs is: A. y = -3x + 2.
