Answer:
<
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 = 4/8
=> 1/8 < 4/8
=> 1/8 < 1/2
Since they tell us that this is linear, having a constant rate of change, we can express this as a line:
y=mx+b, where m=slope (change in y divided by change in x) and b=y-intercept (value of y when x=0)
First find the slope, or m, which mathematically is:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1), in this case:
m=(880-440)/(2000-1000)
m=440/1000
m=0.44, so far our line is:
y=0.44x+b, now we can use either data point to solve for b, I'll use (1000,440)
440=0.44(1000)+b
440=440+b
0=b, so our line is just:
y=0.44x
Answer: $15
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the markup price just multiply 30% by the amount.
30% * 50
0.3 * 50 = 15
Less than. -20 is not the same as positive 20
Answer:
$0.21
Step-by-step explanation:
So, first let's find the cost of a single cup.
16/13.60 = 1/0.85
Now, we know that each cup is approximately $0.85. Next, we must convert cups into quarts. 1 cup = 0.25 quarts.
1/0.85 = 0.25/0.21
