Answer:

12lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the amount of apples you need, then:

x-0.14x= 10 8/25

0.86x = 10 8/25

(10 8/25) : 86 * 100 = x

x=12

Answer:

Total fresh apple needed = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, While drying apple loses 14% of its weight

<u>To find the fresh apple needed</u>

Let x be the total fresh apple needed.

Apple loses 14% of its weight. Final we need 10 8/25 lbs of dried apple

x - 14x/100 = 10 8/25

0.86x = 10 8/25

0.86x = 258/25 = 10.32

x = 12

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

y = (6/11)x + 13/11

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + c

m = (-1-5)/(-4-7) = -6/-11 = 6/11

y = (6/11)x + c

When x = 7, y = 5

5 = (6/11)(7) + c

5 = 42/11 + c

c = 5 - 42/11

c = 13/11

y = (6/11)x + 13/11

11y = 6x + 13
