Divide each percentage to find a multiplier:

34/3.2 = 10.625

The Dead Sea is 10.625 times saltier than the Indian Ocean.

So if Indian Ocean bucket = 56 grams of salt

Multiply that by our multiplier.

56 * 10.625 = 595 grams

The answer is 595 grams

A cell phone company collected data of  texting speed in words per minute according to time in minutes. explain why a scatterplo
Alexxandr [17]

According to time, texting speed is a two-variable type of data that's represented by a scatterplot. This is because a scatterplot helps graph the data points, so that you can figure out and interpret the relationship.

The other answer is the sample response, so it's better to put it in your own words. :)

TV for $500 and the tax is 5.5 what is the original price of the TV
crimeas [40]

Answer:

(since there is no percentage given i will provide two alternate answers one including percentage and one exclusive of percentage)

cost of TV inclusive of tax = $500

we first multiply the tax with total amount

$500 * 5.5

= $500 * 55/10

=$500 * 11/2

= $250 * 11

=$2750

original price of TV = $2750

alternate answer assuming there is a percentage sign with 5.5

the amount of tax on TV is 5.5%

we first multiply the  percentage of tax with total amount

$500 * 5.5/100

=$27.5

original price of TV = $500 - $27.5

= $472.5
