Answer:800

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a percentage, convert to decimal and put it over 100. (69/100)

Then we perform "cross multiplication" where we try to find our b if (a/b = c/d [and our c/d is our percentage*]).

So ([552]/b)= (69/[100])

We obtain (ad/b) = c, which is (55200/b)=69.

We then divide ad by our c, (55200/69=800), our b=800.

Therefore, 552 is 69% of 800.

Allison, Brianna, and Celeste went on a hike. Allison brought 9 homemade

poizon [28]

Answer:

Allison = $0.27

Brianna = $1.89

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cookies that the three girls have are:

Allison's cookies + Brianna's Cookies

= 9+15

=24

There is a total of 24 cookies which has to be divided between the 3.

Each girl gets 24/3 = 8 cookies.

Since Celeste had no cookies she will have to pay for the 8 cookies.

Allison had 9, she will give one to Celeste

Brianna had 15 out of which she will use 8 for her self and 7 will be given to Celeste.

Celeste is paying 2.16 for 8 cookies.

Price of one cookie = 2.16/8

=$0.27

So, amount that will be given to Allison = 0.27 * 1 = $0.27

Amount that will be given to Brianna = 0.27 * 7 = $1.89

Use a table of values with at least 5 values to graph the following function:

34kurt

The given expression :

$y=(\frac{1}{2})^x$

For coordinates:

put x = 0 then :

$\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{2})^0 \\ y=1 \end{gathered}$

Coordinate : (x, y) = (0, 1)

Put x= 1 and simplify :

$\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{2})^1 \\ y=\frac{1}{2} \\ y=0.5 \end{gathered}$

Coordinate : (x, y) = ( 1, 0.5)

Put x = (-2) and simplify :

$\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{2})^{-2} \\ y=\frac{1^{-2}}{2^{-2}} \\ y=\frac{2^2}{1^2} \\ y=2^2 \\ y=4 \end{gathered}$

Coordinate : (x, y) = ( -2, 4)

Put x = (-3) and simplify :

$\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{2})^{-3} \\ y=\frac{1^{-3}}{2^{-3}} \\ y=\frac{2^3}{1^3} \\ y=2^3 \\ y=8 \end{gathered}$

Coordinate : (x, y) = (-3, 8)

Substitute x = (-1) and simplify :

$\begin{gathered} y=(\frac{1}{2})^x \\ y=(\frac{1}{2})^{-1} \\ y=\frac{1^{-1}}{2^{-1}} \\ y=\frac{2}{1} \\ y=2 \end{gathered}$

Coordinate : (x, y) = ( -1, 2)

So, the coordinates are :

The graph is :

Plz help!!

1. 5564÷91
I know that 9 * 6 = 56
5564 rounds to 5600
91 rounds to 9
Since 56/9 = 6, then 5600/90 is the same as 560/9 = 60
The estimate is 60

2. 5391÷25
5391 sounds to 5400
25 is 1/4 of 100.
That means when you divide by 25, you can divide by 100 and multiply by 4.
5400/100 = 54
54 * 4 = 216
Estimate: 216

3. explain how to estimate 498÷12
48/12 = 4
498 is little more than 480, so 498/12 is little more than 40

4. which is the closest estimate for 2130÷ 33
A.7 B.17 C.70 D.700

2130/33
Round off the numerator and denominator to
2100/30
Reduce the fraction
210/3
Since I know that 21/3 = 7, then 210/3 = 70
Estimate: 70
