Answer:
The constant of proportionality is 2
The equation is y=2x
Step-by-step explanation:
The unit price or unit rate is $2
Let y represent the price of tomatoes, then the price of x tomatoes is
dollars.
This represents a direct variation.
This equation is of the form , where k=2 is the constant of proportionality.
Answer:
-28
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we must find 35% of 280.
Kerrie gets 10% and then 25%. So:
10% of 280:
280 ------------> 100%
x -----------------> 10%
Where "x" represents the amount given by 10% of 280.
Thus, 10% of 280 is 28.
Now, we find 25% of 280:
280 ------------> 100%
x -----------------> 25%
Where "x" represents the amount given by 25% of 280.
Thus, 25% of 280 is 70.
So we have that 35% of 280 is given by:
So, Kerrie's solution is correct.
Answer:
Option A
Your estimate of the baby pig's weight is 2 pounds. However the actual weight of it is only 16 pounds.
Let's solve for the percentage error of this.
=> 20 - 16 = 4 pounds
=> 4 / 16 = 0.25
=> 0.25 * 100% = 25%
Thus, you added 25% of the baby pig's weight
