The answer for the question is: Percentage.

The explanation for this answer is shown below:

By definition, a percentage is a number that is computed on the basis of a whole divided into one hundred parts. Therefore, based on this definition, you can write a percent as percentage (with the symbol %), as a fraction (with a numerator and a denominator) and you can also express it as a decimal, as following:

$20$ % $=\frac{1}{5}=0.2$

six friends share 5 meat pies. each friend first eats half of a meat pie. how much more meat pie does each friend need to eat to

Margaret [11]

So at the beginning, the friends eat 3 meat pies in total. So that leaves two meat pies left.
So basically, we divide the meat pies by the number of friends.
2/6 is 1/3
So each friend needs to eat 1/3 of a meat pie

At 82°F, a certain insect chirps at a rate of 61 times per minute, and at 91°F, they chirp 124 times per minute. Write an equati

Ganezh [65]

Answer:

$y=7x-513$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit

y ---->insect chirping rate in times per minute

we have the ordered pairs

(82,61) and (91,124)

step 1

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{124-61}{91-82}$

$m=\frac{63}{9}=7$

step 2

Find the equation of the line

we know that

The equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

where

m is the slope

b is the y-intercept

we have

$m=7$ ---> the units are chirps per minute/degree F

take the point (82,61)

substitute and solve for b

$61=7(82)+b$

$61=574+b$

$b=-513$

substitute

$y=7x-513$

lawyer [7]

Let
x be the distance that the truck has left to travel
t be the the time

The total distance is 1675 miles
The average speed is 55 miles per hour

The equation that represents the distance that the truck has left to travel with respect to time is
55t + x =1675
x = -55t + 1675
