Answer:
500 lbs of mixed nuts
Step-by-step explanation:
15.4% of mixed nuts = 77 lbs of pecans
Divide the weight of pecans by the percent of mixed nuts to find how many pounds of pecans equal 1% of the mixed nuts:
77 / 15.4 = 5, so 5 lbs equals 1% of mixed nuts
Now multiply that number by 100 to get 100% of mixed nuts:
5 x 100 = 500
Therefore, there are 500 lbs of mixed nuts in a batch altogether.
To check, 15.4% = 15.4/100 = 0.514
Therefore, 15.4% of 500 = 0.514 x 500 = 77
Thereby proving that 15.4% of 500 is 77.
To find x, divide 13.1 by 150 to get <span>0.08733333333.</span>
Answer:
its 61.4x+15
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
gradient = slope or several other words.
it describes how strongly a line (or tangent to a bent curve) is going up or down or ... if it is changing at all.
it is represented by the ratio
(y coordinate change / x coordinate change)
when going from one point on the line to another.
in our case, when going from A to B we have
x changes by -2k (from 3k to k).
y changes by -11 (from 8 to -3).
so, the gradient or slope is
-11/-2k = 3
11/2k = 3
11 = 3×2k = 6k
k = 11/6
A = (33/6, 8) = (11/2, 8)
B = (11/6, -3)
Use the slope formula
and plug in the values for x and y.
