You can solve this problem two ways.
1. Divide 68g by 100 to get how many grams per pound and multiply that by 150. This is the hard way.
2. Multiply 68 by 1.5 to get your answer. This is possible because 150 is 1.5 of 100, so multiplying the amount for 100 by 1.5 gives you your answer.
Answer:
X=132-13A/A, A cannot equal 0
A=132/X+13, X cannot equal -13
To help solve this, we need to use the slope formula.
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1). We get these values by picking two points on a line.
We will use points (-3, 1) and (-17, 2).
y1 = 1
y2 = 2
x1 = -3
x2 = -17
Let's plug these into our formula.
(2) - (1) / (-17) - (-3) = 1 / - 14
The slope is 1 / -14
