25% of x calories is 550 calories.
25% * x = 550
0.25x = 550
Divide both sides by 0.25
x = 2200
Answer: 2200 calories
To solve this problem
Let X be pounds of rose petals needed.
ATQ
0.875 pounds of rose petals are in 1 bottle.
So, 0.875 / 1 = X / 86
( because we have to find how many petals {in pounds}are there in 86 perfume bottles )
cross muliplying both side.
0.875 * 86 = X
75.25 = X
So, there are 75.25 pounds of petals in 86 perfume bottles.
I hope this helps you
x'=2 y'=5
x"=0 y"= -4
slope. (2-0)=5-(-4)
slope. 2=5+4
slope =9/2
You'd have no problem simplifying that expression if it said
-(5 cows) - (1 cow) + ( 14 cows) - (3 cows) .
You'd just add up the cows, and simplify the expression to say
5 cows .
When you see an expression that talks about 'x's instead of cows,
you get scared. It has something to do with algebra and math and
all that stuff, so you freeze.
Relax. Just make each 'x' a cow, and suddenly it almost solves itself.
Y=-3/2x + 2 this is because of algebra
