A school snack bar sells a mix of granola and raisins. The mix includes 2 pounds of granola for every 3 pounds of raisins. How m

kifflom [539]

The easiest way to solve a problem like this is to cross multiply and solve

The problem gives us a ratio
2 pounds of granola = 3 pounds of raisins
which makes a ratio of $\frac{2}{3}$
The other ratio is
? pounds of granola = 24 pounds of raisins
which makes a ratio of $\frac{x}{24}$

To solve, set them equal to each other ...
$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{24}$

Now we must cross multiply...
To cross multiply, we multiply 2 and 24
and we multiply 3 and x
Now we have an equation to solve!
3x = 48
To solve and get your final answer, divide...
x = $\frac{48}{3}$

x = 16
You'll need 16 pounds of granola

If the fuel tank in Jim's car holds 14 gallons of fuel, define a formula to determine the number of gallons of fuel in Jim's fue

salantis [7]

Considering that the car does 50 miles per gallon, the linear function for the number of gallons of fuel in Jim's fuel tank, n, in terms of the number of miles x that Jim has driven since filling his tank is given by:

$y = -0.02x + 14$

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

$y = mx + b$

In which:

m is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.

b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0.

In this problem:

Jim's car holds 14 gallons of fuel, hence $b = 14$ .

Considering it does 50 miles per gallon, and the amount in the tank will decrease, the slope is $m = -\frac{1}{50} = -0.02$ .

Hence, the function is:

$y = -0.02x + 14$

Which angles are supplementary to each other?

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

Angle 4 and Angle 1 are supplementary to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is 180°. Because angle 4 and angle 1 and right next to each other and they share a straight line, both of their angles should add up to 180°, making these two angles supplementary.
