At age 16, Estelle weighed 110lbs.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

Her weight is increase by 18 lbs over past five years and the slope is 3.6 lbs per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information: Estelle weight is

At age 16 =  110 lbs

At age 21 = 128 ibs

Increase in her weight over the past 5 years is the difference of weight at age 21 and at age 16.

Increase in her weight over the past 5 years = 128 - 110 = 18

Her weight is increase by 18 lbs over past five years.

Let x=age and y=weight, then the weight function passes through the points (16,110) and (21,128).

If a line passes through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2),  then the slope of the line is

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Using the above formula we get

m=\frac{128-110}{21-16}

m=\frac{18}{5}

m=3.6

Therefore the slope is 3.6 lbs per year.

A family paid $26.400 as a down payment for a home. If this represents 16% of the price of the home, find the price of the home.
Vlada [557]
The correct answer is:

How to find X if P percent of it is Y. Use the percentage formula Y/P% = X

Convert the problem to an equation using the percentage formula: Y/P% = X
Y is 26,400, P% is 16%, so the equation is 26,400/16% = X
Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100.
Converting 16% to a decimal: 16/100 = 0.16
Substitute 0.16 for 16% in the equation: 26,400/0.16 = X
Do the math: 26,400/0.16 = X
X = 165,000
So $ 165,000 is the price of the home.

I hope this helps you!!

A sporting goods store manager was selling a ski set for a certain price. The manager offered the markdowns​ shown, making the​
Ilya [14]

Answer:

The original selling price would be $ 515.87 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the original selling price ( in dollars ),

After marking down 10%,

New selling price = x - 10% of x = x - 0.1x = 0.9x

Again after marking down 30%,

Final selling price = 0.9x - 30% of 0.9x

= 0.9x - 0.3 × 0.9x

= 0.9x - 0.27x

= 0.63x

According to the question,

0.63x = 325

\implies x =\frac{325}{0.63}\approx 515.87

Hence, the original selling price would be $ 515.87.

If it takes Charlie 45 minutes walking at 2.5 km/hr to get to the chocolate factory and it takes Willy Wonka 15 minutes walking
Mrac [35]

Answer:

Willy Wonka

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

it takes Charlie 45 minutes walking at 2.5 km/hr

speed = distance /time

distance= speed*time

distance= 2.5*45

distance= 112.5 km

it takes Willy Wonka 15 minutes walking at 3.5 km/hr

distance= speed*time

distance= 3.5*15

distance= 52.5 km

Hence Willy Wonka stays closer
