What you can do in this case is a rule of three to determine the length of each bow.
We have then:
1/4 ---> 2
x ------> 1
Clearing x we have:
x = (1/2) * (1/4)
x = 1/8
Answer:
the length of ribbon in each bow is
x = 1/8
Equivalently:
x = (1/4) / 2
Option 3
Answer: B
3•5=15
Since were finding x it’s going to be
x=3y-15
It’s subtraction because obviously if you see in the problem there’s subtraction
70% of the trip length, t, is 35 miles. Find t:
0.70t = 35. Dividing both sides by 0.70, we get:
35
t = ----------- = 50
0.70
The total trip length is 50 miles.
For number 10 the y-intercept is going to be at -1 1/3 not -1.
