3144/9= 349.33
I used a calculator, but you can also solve this by long division (if a calculator isn’t available)
hope this helps!! :)
Answer:
75.6 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one.
Given data
we are told that the original quantity of food is 63 ounces
and the increase is in food is by 20%
Step two:
let us find the increase in ounces
=20/100*63
=0.2*63
=12.6 ounces
Hence the amount of food in the bag now is
=12.6+63
=75.6 ounces
First, solve for the slope. This can be found by looking at the y and x intercepts. At x = 0, y = 1.5. At x = 2, y = 0.
Slope is defined as Δy/Δx, or the change in y over the change in x. This means that in order to calculate the slope, you must find the difference between the values of y and divide it by the difference in the values of x for the two points to determine the slope between them.
(0 - 1.5)/(2-0) = (-1.5)/2 = -0.75 or -3/4
Now that you have the slope, we can write the equation in slope intercept form, y = mx + b, where m is the slope we calculated and b is the y intercept, 1.5.
y = (-3/4)x + 1.5
The answer is 6/5 (six over five) 100 divided by 20
