5(a + 3b) = 5(9 + 3(2)) = 5(9 + 6) = 5(15) = 75
We need to find the percent increase from 38.8 to 82.4, so
x * 38.8 = 82.4
x = 82.4/38.8
x = 2.1237
Multiply by 100 to convert to percentage (move decimal 2 places to the right)
2.1237 = 212.37%
Now we can apply this percentage increase to the onion dip...
0.48 x 212.37% =
0.48 x 2.1237 = 1.019
Round to the nearest cent $1.02 is the amount of increase. Now add it to the original price to get today's price...
$1.02 + .48 = $1.50
To find slope you do y2-y1 over x2-x1. So 4-6 is -2. And 3-1 is 2. So -2/2 is -1. The slope is -1.
J=15b/10g
S=21b/g w/ the ratio 3/2 (15/10=3/2)
1) Form an equation (21/g=3/2).
2) Since you are trying to find the denominator, multiply 3/2 so that the numerators are the same (3×7=21 2×7=14).
3) The answer will be whatever the denominator is at the end.
The answer is there are 14 girls in Steven's class.
