To determine the amount of milk that David should be adding, we need to generate and expression that would relate the number of strawberries and the number of cups. From the problem statement, it is said that the number of strawberries is directly proportional to the number of cups of milk. We write it as:
X α Y where X represents the number of strawberries and Y represents the number of cups of milk
To get rid of the proportionality sign, we introduce a proportionality constant k. We calculate this by using the initial conditions given.
X = kY
at X = 14 strawberries Y = <span>2 1/2 cups of milk = 5/2 cups
14 = k(5/2)
k = 28/5
At X = 203
X = kY
203 = 28/5 (Y)
Y = 145/4 or 36 1/4 cups of milk needed</span>
Ok so, here goes:
simple interest: r- rate, A- amount in the end, t- time, P- principal
<span>r = (1/t)(A/P - 1)
</span>Putting in our numbers
r = (1/4)((21236/5309) - 1) = 0.75
r = 0.75
Converting r decimal to R a percentage
R = 0.75 * 100 = 75%/year
The interest rate required to get a total amount, principal plus interest, of $21,236.00 from simple interest on a principal of $5,309.00 over 4 years is 75% per year.
3.75, 3.9, 4.256, 4.258, 4.5
So how do you find out? It is really easy.
First you look the the number, we all know 3 is less then 4 so the 3s go first
Then you look the tenths, the choices are 3.75 and 3.9. The tenth 9 and 7, and we all know 7 is less then 9, so 3.75 is the first one, then 3.9.
Now let's look at the 4s. The choices are 4.5, 4.258, and 4.256. The tenths are 5, 2, and 2. 2 is less then 5 so they go before 4.5.
Then we look at the hundredth, the choices are 4.256 and 4.258. Since they have same hundreds, we look at the thousands. They are 6 and 8. 6 is less then 8 so 4.256 go before 4.258.

Answer:
P(x) = 25x +550
Step-by-step explanation:
The employee's overtime pay for x hours at $25 per hour is 25x. Added to the base salary of $550, the employee's weekly pay is ...
P(x) = 25x +550
