Answer: The percentage change is 56.67%.
Step-by-step explanation:
From 120 meals to 52 meals, change in meals = ( 120- 52) meals
= 68 meals
The percentage change =
Hence, the percentage change is 56.67%.
Answer:
1. The relation is proportional.
2. The ratio of quarters and to dimes will not remain 5 : 3.
3. y = 6 + x, Hence, not proportional.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. I can do 90 sit-ups in 2 minutes and my friend can do 135 sit-ups in 3 minutes.
If we consider t as the time in minutes and n as the number of sit-ups, then we can write (2,90) and (3,135) as two ordered pairs.
So, the relation between t and n will be
⇒ n = 45t
Therefore, the relation is proportional.
2. The initial ratio of quarters to dimes was 5:3. If I add the same number of quarters and dimes to it then,
a) The ratio of quarters and dimes will not still be 5 : 3.
b) Let, the number of quarters was 5 then the number of dimes was 3. {As the ratio was 5 : 3}
Now, we add 3 new quarters and 3 new dimes in the collection. then, finally, the number of quarters will be (5 + 3) = 8 and the number of dimes will become (3 + 3) = 6.
Therefore, the new ratio will become 8 : 6 = 4 : 3 which is not equal to 5 : 3.
3. I am 13 years old, and my cousin is 19 years old.
So, if my age is given by x and that of my cousin is y, then
y - x = 19 - 13
⇒ y - x = 6
⇒ y = 6 + x
This relation will continue as the year passes. So, the relation is not proportional as the relation is not like y = kx. (Answer)
