Note that when x increases by 1, y increases by 4. Thus, the slope of the linear function representing this table is 4. What is the y-intercept? Note that as y decreases by 4, x decreases by 1. We have y = 1 and want the y-intercept, (0,y). Start with y=1 and subtract 4; the result is -3. So the y-intercept is (0,-3):
y = 4x - 3 (answer)
A 50% increase followed by a 33% decrease leaves you with a constant 17% increase. It is less than the original.
If 8 3/4 is 25% (1/4) of a number, you can multiply 8 3/4 (8.75) by 4 to get the answer, because 1/4 multiplied by 4 equals one.
(you should get 35)
Answer:
W=50M
Step-by-step explanation:
Since there are 18 workers per 900 minerals, divide out to simplify.
STARTING EQUATION: 900m=18w
SIMPLIFY: divide both sides by 18.
SIMPLIFIED: 50m=1w
There is your answer!
