(400-300)/300 x 100 = 100/300 x 100 = 33.33% increase
If
1 bushel = 48 pounds
and 1 pound = 3 apples
48 pounds = x apples cross multiply
x apples = 48 X 3 ==> 144 apples
1 bushel = 144 apples (because 48 pounds = 1 bushel)
315 bushel = x apples
x apples = 144 X 315
x = 45360 apples
Answer: C. (-1/6)^5
Hope this helped!! Have a nice day :))
With questions like this (to see if theyre parallel), all you have to do is see if lines have a congruent slope. if yes (ex: 2 and 2), then they are parallel. if the slopes are opposites (ex: 4 and -1/4), then they are perpendicular. If they have no such relation (ex: -3 and 1/7), then they are neither.
with this problem, find the slope by separating the same variable in each equations, like this:
2x + 7y = 6
-2x -2x
7y = -2x + 6
(the second equation is already separated) so now we have
7y = -2x + 6 and 7y = 2x + 6
since -2 does NOT equal 2, these two graphs/lines are NOT parallel.
Hope this helped!
