Answer: The whole is divided into 3 equal parts. 2 out of 3 parts are shaded. 2/3 (two thirds) of the whole is shaded. 1/3 (one third) of the whole is not shaded.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have no idea how 'x' responds to changes in 'y'.
We don't even know their units, to make a guess with.
-- If 'x' and 'y' are the ages of two people, then when y = 30, 'x' will be 23.
-- If they are the frequency and wavelength of a wave on the lake,
then when y = 30, 'x' will be 2 .
-- If 'x' is the weight of a rock in your front yard and 'y' is the number of pages
in today's newspaper, then 'y' has no effect on 'x'. No matter what happens
to 'y' . . . 'x' will always be 5 .
With the information given in the question, we just don't know.
We need either an equation, or else one more example.
The total of her first six quizzes is 75*6 = 450
Let her seventh score be x
The total of her seven quizzes be 450+x
Then, (450+x)/7 = 77
x = (77*7) - 450 = 89
Her seventh score is 89
x =
Answer:
x < 40
Step-by-step explanation:
1 lbs for 5 pigs
The ratio is 1 lbs/ 5 pigs
Let x be the number of pigs
Take the ratio and multiply by the number of pigs, this has to be less than the amount of food in the stor
x * 1/5 < 8
Multiply each side by 5
x * 1/5 * 5 < 8*5
x < 40
