Well first you would start by setting up with a proportion.
In total, the girls paid $54+$22= $76
Thus 1 sister contributed $54/$76=x/100
The other sister contributed $22/$76=x/76
For each proportion, cross-multiply and simplify to get the percentage. The percentage will be the x
Answer: jimmy needs a new job
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Cost of 18 pounds candy = $22.5
Cost of 10 pounds candy = $12.5
Cost of 1 pound of candies = $1.25
Step-by-step explanation:
6 pounds of butterscotch candies cost $7.50
⇔ 1 pound of same candy costs $1.25
Now, we need to find the cost of 18 pounds of candy:
as, the cost of 6 pounds candy = $7.50
⇔ Cost of 6 x 3 = 18 pounds candy = $7.50 x 3 = $22.5
Cost of 10 pounds candy = 10 x (Cost of 1 pound candy)
= 10 x ($1.25) = $12.5
The unit rate for butterscotch candies = Cost of 1 pound of candies
= $1.25
Answer:
x= 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the three angles is 90 degrees
x+2x+x+10 = 90
Combine like terms
4x+10 = 90
Subtract 10
4x+10-10 = 90-10
4x= 80
Divide by 4
4x/4=80/4
x = 20
Considering an inverse proportional relationship, you find k taking a point (x,y), and multiplying the values of x and y.
<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>
A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:
y = kx
In which k is the constant of proportionality.
For an inverse relationship, the function is:
.
Then:
k = xy.
Which means that to find k, you take a point (x,y), and multiply the values of x and y.
