5 = what percent of 23
5 = x% of 23
5 = (x/100)*23
5 = 23x/100
5*100 = 23x
23x = 5*100
x = 5*100/23
x = 21.739
5 is ≈ 21.739% of 23
Use the point slope formula. then, substitute the values inside the formula.
x1 =3
y1= -2
m = 23
y -y1 = m ( x - x1)
y - (-2) = 23 (x - 3)
y + 2 = 23 ( x - 3)
4.5x5=22.5
not sure if this is right, but hope it helps
Answer:
- y=0.8x
- See Explanation for others
Step-by-step explanation:
The 3 cans of beans had a total weight of 2.4 Pounds
Therefore:
- 1 can of beans = (2.4 ÷ 3) =0.8 Pounds
The following applies from the options.
- y=0.8x where y is the weight and x is the number of cans.
- A 2-column table with 3 rows. Column 1 is labeled number of cans with entries 5, 15, 20. Column 2 is labeled total weight (in pounds) with entries 4, 12, 16.
Using y=0.8x
When x=5, y=0.8 X 5=4
When x=15, y=0.8 X 15=12
When x=20, y=0.8 X 20=16

- On a coordinate plane, the x-axis is labeled number of cans and the y-axis is labeled total weight (in pounds. A line goes through points (5, 4) and (15, 12). This can be clearly seen from the table above as (5,4) and (15,12) are points on the line.
So basically, he wants to make mixture where lemon=lime
it is 6 gallons so
40% of 6=0.4 times 60=2.4=lemon
60% of 6=0.6 times 60=3.6=lime
so to make them equal
3.6-2.4=1.2
he must add 1.2 gallons of 100% lemon juice to make a mixture of 50% lemon and 50% lime
1.2 gallons is the answer
