Y is the amount of food that a manatee eats each day:
the weight is X 
12% or its weight is   X x 12 /100= 12x /100=3x/25
so the equation is y= 3x/25
the dependent variable is y (it depends to the value of x)
and the independent is x

0.661 rounded to nearest hundretg
elena-s [515]
Since you are doing decimals, know that you are mirroring what you would do on the left side

Your decimal number: .661

The first 6, which is .6 is the tenths place

The second 6, which is .06 is the hundredths place

1 which is .001 is the thousands place

The farther you go left, the bigger the digit number value

So when rounding up, you look at the digit after the number you are rounding

So what is after the hundredths place? Its the thousandths place which is 1

Is 61 closer to 60 or 70? Since 1 is smaller than the halfway point which is 5, its closer to 60

Answer: .661 rounded to the nearest hundredths is .660 or just simply written as .66

Clair has 60 yd of fence with which to build a rectangular pig sty. What is the maximum area she can enclose?
inn [45]
Assuming this Fence enclosment will be in the shape of a rectangle we will use the equation used to find the area of a rectangle, b×h=a

Using this formula we then must pick out factors used to create, in which the perimeter will add up to 60

·1,29,1,29 (29)
·2,28,2,28 (56)
·3,27,3,27 (81)
·4,26,4,26 (104)
·5,25,5,25 (125)
·6,24,6,24 (144)
·7,23,7,23 (161)
·8,22,8,22 (176)
·9,21,9,21 (189)
·10,20,10,20 (200)
·11,19,11,19 (209)
·12,18,12,18 (216)
·13,17,13,17 (221)
·14,16,14,16 (224)
·15,15,15,15 (225)



using this we can learn<span> that the maximum area that can be exclosed by this is 225, because the 2 perimeter lengths that define this rectangle would be 15 and 15.

</span>b(15)×h(15)=225(a)

therefore, your answer is 225 Units
