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

On a highway, you take 3 seconds to increase your speed from 32 to 35 miles per hour. Your speed increases the same amount each
balandron [24]

Answer:

1 to 30 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

3 seconds increases your speed from 32 to 35 miles per hour

Hence 3 seconds = 3 miles per hour(35-32 miles)

1 second = 1 mile

The function for the increase per mile is therefore:

f(x)= 1x

Where x is number of seconds travelled on the highway

The domain of a function are the possible input values for x. Since the speed limit on the highway is 65 miles, the input values for x cannot be more than 30 seconds(current speed is 35 miles per hour, 65-35=30)
