Answer:
b. 80
Step-by-step explanation:
!5% is equivalent to 15 parts over the whole 100 part. It is written in proportions as 15/100.
Similarly, you need to find how many parts in 80 are equivalent to 15%or 15/100. So, just equate both equation with x as an unknown.
x/80 = 15/100
x = (15/100)*80
x = 12
Thus, the 15% of 80 is 12.
Answer:
b, e
Step-by-step explanation:
a, b) ordinarily, we claim the variable on the vertical axis is a function of the variable on the horizontal axis. By that claim, <em>temperature is a function of time</em>.
If the graph passed the horizontal line test (a horizontal line intersects in one place), then we could also say time is a function of temperature. The graph does not pass that test, so we cannot make that claim.
c) The graph has negative slope between 4:00 and 5:00. Temperature is decreasing in that interval, not increasing.
d) The graph has two intervals in which it is horizontal: 5:00-9:00 and 11:00-12:00. In those intervals it is neither increasing nor decreasing.
e) The graph shows a minimum in the interval 11:00-12:00. <em>The lowest temperature first occurs at 11:00</em>.
The answer you are looking for is 12.0
We use algebraic equations in our daily lives without knowing it. For example, when we go shopping, calculate grocery expenses, or even fill our gas tanks, we are using equations. Let's say we needed to fill our gas tank, but we only had $15.00 to do so. If the price of gas is $3.00 per gallon, how many gallons could we buy? We use the simply algebraic equation of

to calculate the total gallons that can be bought. x = the money we have. y = price per gallon of gas.

= 5. So with $15.00, we can buy 5 gallons of gas; and that is just one example of using an algebraic equation in everyday life!
