The amount of increase is (180 - 150) = 30 tons.
The increase as a part of the original amount is 30/150 = 0.2
To change a decimal into a percent,
move the decimal point 2 places that way ===> .
0.2 = 20%
If all you want is a horizontal shrink then the answer you choose should not be in brackets. The brackets will alter the way the graph looks.
That means that A and B are not correct.
If you have a graph where a>1 the graph will expand.
If you have a graph where a<1 but greater than 0 the graph will shrink.
y = 1/2 x^3 + 4 is the answer you want.
Just to show you the graphs, I have enclosed a graph of the three choices.
y = x^3 + 4 is red
y = 2x^3 + 4 is blue
y = (1/2) x^3 + 4 is green. The green one is the one you want.

Answer:
<em>He should use 800 pounds of trail mix 5% raisins and 200 pounds of trail mix 20% raisins</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>System of Equations</u>
Let's call
x = pounds of trail mix 5% raisins
y = pounds of trail mix 20% raisins
The distributor wants to make 1,000 pounds of trail mix, thus:
x + y = 1,000 [1]
The mix must be 8% raisings as a combination of x and y, thus:
5x + 20y = 8*1,000 = 8,000
Dividing by 5:
x + 4y = 1,600 [2]
Subtracting [2] and [1]:
4y - y = 1,600 - 1,000
Operating:
3y = 600
y = 200
From [1]
x = 1,000 - y = 1,000 - 200
x = 800
He should use 800 pounds of trail mix 5% raisins and 200 pounds of trail mix 20% raisins
