By proportion. First write down the given information systematically:
[1000] drops of liquid equals (1 fl. oz.)
(100) drops of liquid equals ? oz
For problems that are directly proportional, we cross multiply the numbers in the bottom left and top right (in parentheses), divide by the number across ( in square brackets) from the unknown, namely:
Answer:
100 drops * 1 fl. oz / (1000 drops) = (100/1000)* 1 fl. oz = 0.1 fl. oz.
Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation:
A is incorrect because going from -10 to 10 is not 0, it is 20.
C is incorrect because 21 km from sea level is adding 21.
D is incorrect because the total distance biking to school and back is actually 6.2.
B is correct because buying an item for the same price then selling it for the same price results in no increase in profit but consistency therefore being 0.
Answer: Todd earned $40 mowing the neighbor's lawn.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of money that Todd earned, mowing his neighbor's lawn.
He spent one-fourth of his money see a movie. It means that the amount spent in seeing a movie is x/4
Then he spent $6.00 on popcorn and drinks. It means that the total amount spent is
x/4 + 6
The amount left would be
x - (x/4 + 6) = x - x/4 - 6
When he went home, he had $24.00 left. It means that
x - x/4 - 6 = 24
x - x/4 = 24 + 6
x - x/4 = 30
Cross multiplying by 4, it becomes
4x - x = 120
3x = 120
x = 120/3
x = $40
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
In all the cases, the number is multiplied by itself and added 1 to it. so the answer is 26
