The average rate of change in the monthly rate per year is -$0.056 i.e decreases by 0.056 every consecutive year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; The initial value is $7.69 in 1980 and the final value is $6.13 in 2008.
Difference in values = Final value - initial value = $6.13- $7.69 = -$1.56 (the negative symbol indicates that the cost has gone down with time)
Period between the values =Final year - initial year = 2008 - 1980 = 28 years.
Step 2; To find the rate of change per year, we divide the difference in values in that given period of time by the number of years in that period.
Rate of change per year = Difference in values in that period/ no of years.
= -$1.56 / 28 = -$0.056 (the negative symbol indicates that the cost has gone down with time)
So for every year between 1980 and 2008, the price of the monthly rate for basic able TV reduced by $0.056.
Let's say the first truck weighs x tons
Then, the weight of 2nd truck = x+2 tons
The weight of 3rd truck = (x + 2) + 2 = x+4 tons
The weight of 4th truck = (x + 4) + 2 = x+6 tons
Total weight of 4 trucks:
x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6) = 32
which can be solved easily to give x = 5
I would try a but maybe wait for one more response because I got squared after x and 5x
Answer:
83%
Step-by-step explanation:
83/100 = .83
0.83 x 100 to get in percent
83%
4 3/4 equals 19/4ths so the correct answer would be 19 burgers
