Answer:
If you were trying to find 15% of 18, that would be multiplying a decimal, but, you need to mutliply a whole number. $120 should be your answer. People, correct me if I'm wrong (seriously though, not 100% sure if this is correct).
Step-by-step explanation:
18 = 15% x Y
18 = 15/100 x Y
Y = 18 × 100/15
Y = 18 × 100 ÷ 15
Y = 120
There is a strong, negative relationship between outside temperature and snow shovel sales. As x increases, y decreases.
Answer: 1008
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
5 small containers of capacity 16,72,12,24, and 56 litres is required to fill a big container.
The volume of big container is the LCM of the 5 given containers
Therefore, the capacity of the bigger container is 1008 litres.
Let
x = first consecutive odd
x + 2 = second consecutive odd
Based on the problem, we equate
x + (x + 2) = 32
Solving for x,
2x + 2 = 32
2x = 32 - 2
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15
and x + 2 = 15 + 2 = 17
Therefore, the integers are 15 and 17.
