Answer: Yes!
Step-by-step explanation:
If the x and y coordinates form proportional relationships, then there is some non-changing number (a constant) that when multiplied times x will create y. In this example, that number is 3 (y = 3x), and is called the constant of proportionality. ... It is a positive number.
Answer:
70%
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the decrease:
original/current
450/315 = .7
Now multiply .7 by 100 to get a percent
.7 * 100 - 70%
450 * .7 = 315
70% is the answer!
Answer:
First and second box had 80 and 75 lb flour originally.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the two boxes contained x lb and y lb of the flour respectively.
Both the boxes contained 155 lb of flour in total.
So the first equation will be,
x + y = 155 --------(1)
If the 20 lb of the flour is taken out then amount of flour in first box = (x - 20) lb
and added to the second box then flour in second box = (y + 20) lb
After the mixing of flour statement says that "the first box will contain
of the flour now in the second box."
For this statement equation will be

19(x - 20) = 12(y + 20)
19x - 12y = 380 + 240
19x - 12y = 620 ------(2)
Equation (1) × 12 + equation (2)
12(x + y) + (19x - 12y) = 155×12 + 620
31x = 1860 + 620
31x = 2480
x = 
x = 80 lb
from equation (1)
80 + y = 155
y = 155 - 80
y = 75 lb.
Therefore, first and second boxes had 80 lb and 75 lb of flour originally.

Answer: $122.50
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
In Out
8:00 12:00 = 4 hours
12:45 17:30 =<u> 4.75 hours </u>
Total 8.75 hours
8.75 hours x $14/hr = $122.50
Note: to subtract 12:45 from 17:30, borrow 1 hour from 17 and add 60 minutes to 30:
17:30 → 16:90
- 12:45 -<u> 12:45 </u>
4: 45
4 hours 45 minutes =
= 4.75 hours
