Answer:
x = 5.4
Step-by-step explanation:
3/x = 4/7.2
cross-multiply:
4x = 21.6
x = 5.4
4/5 of the original amount at the start of the month will remain. The amount at the start of every month will change. Thus:
an = 4/5 (an-1) ; where a1 = 500.
Is/of = %/100 plug the numbers in 24/x = 16/100 then cross multiply then you get 2400 = 16x so you get x by itself so you would have to divide by 16. 2400/16 = 16x/16 the 16 on the x side cancel out so you get x = 150 (I used proportions)
Graph K. This is because the cost of a gallon of milk is not increasing constantly, as in a linear rate, but it has only increased a few times in a year. Therefore, graph K shows that a gallon of milk is a steady, unchanged price, then the cost rises and stays the same, then rises again and stays the same. So, it is not a linear graph because the cost of the milk is not going up at a constant rate.
