Answer:

  A. 120%

  B. 150%

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Let 'a' represent the percentage of interest.

  600 = a% × 500

  600/500 = a/100 . . . . . . . % means /100

  100(6/5) = a = 120

  600 is <u> 120 </u>% of 500

__

b. Let 'b' represent the percentage of interest. The given statement means ...

  100 = 40 + b% × 40

  100 = 40(1 +b/100) . . . . . factor out 40, use /100 for %

  2.50 = 1 +b/100 . . . . . . . divide by 40

  1.50 = b/100 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

  150 = b . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 100

100 is <u> 150 </u>% more than 40

labwork [276]
No, Joe and Grace don’t have enough together because 11/10 is only 1.1 and 3/4 is .75 and u add that together u get 1.85 which is less 2.

Grace needs 12 cups of sugar to make the cookies because 1 cups of sugar makes 6 cookies and each person is getting 3 that’s only enough for 2 people , so multiple every by 12 to get 24 people, 12 cups of sugar, and 72 cookies .

a beverage is made by mixing 3 parts of water with 5 parts of fruit juice how many parts of water are mixed with 1 part on fruit
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

\frac{3}{5}=0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the initial ratio of 3 parts water to 5 parts fruit juice, you can set up a proportion (equivalent ratios) to determine the amount of water needed with just 1 part of fruit juice:

\frac{water}{fruit}=\frac{3}{5}=\frac{x}{1}

cross multiply: 5x = 3

divide: 5x/5 = 3/5 or x = 3/5

3/5 = 0.6 parts water

Answer:

\large\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{variable}}}}

Variable is a symbol that represents a quantity in a mathematical expression, as used in many sciences. Variable (research), a logical set of attributes. Variable star, a type of astronomical star.

\large\boxed{\boxed{\boxed{\mathfrak{constant}}}}

A constant, sometimes also called a "mathematical constant," is any well-defined real number which is significantly interesting in some way. A function, equation, etc., is said to "be constant" (or be a constant function) if it always assumes the same value independent of how its parameters are varied.
