A farm yielded 1200 bags of wheat in 2006 . This was was a 20% decrease in yield from 2005. what was the decrease in the number of bags?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

300 bags of wheat

Step-by-step explanation:

We can get the answer by using algebraic expressions. If 1,200 bags means a 20% decrease in the yield from 2005, then it is 80% of the yield in 2005.

Let's solve.

Let x be the number of bags yield from 2005.

We can say: 1,200 is 80% of x

1,200 = 80% of x

1,200 = 0.80(x)

x = [tex]\frac{1,200}{0.80}[/tex]

x = 1,500

The number of bags yield from 2005 is 1,500.

Let's check.

Let x be the decrease in yield.

1,500 x 20% = x

1,500(0.20) = x

x = 300

The 20% decrease in yield is equal to 300 bags of wheat.

1,500 - 300 = 1,200 bags

The answer is correct.

Answer: No, they don't.

Step-by-step explanation: Liz uses a 3 to 8 ratio of brown sugar to flour while Larry uses a 2 to 5 ration of brown sugar to flour. I hope this helps!

Answer:

The answer is no

Step-by-step explanation:

It is imposibble for  Liz and Larry to use the same ratio of brown sugar to flour,

The rotio of liz cup = 3:8

the ratio of larry = 2:7

The ratio of liz cup is greater than the ratio of larry.

so they are deffinetly not the same ratio,

therefore the answer is No

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to the graph of 3y = 2x − 3 and passes through the point
(−3, 4).

Answers

Answer:

y = 2/3x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

First, put the original equation in y = mx + b form

3y = 2x − 3

y = 2/3x - 1

The slope of the other line will also be 2/3, since parallel lines have the same slope.

Plug in this slope and the given point into y = mx + b, and solve for b:

y = mx + b

4 = 2/3(-3) + b

4 = -2 + b

6 = b

Plug in the slope and b:

y = 2/3x + 6 is the equation of the line

(05.01)A picture is 5 inches wide and 8 inches tall: A rectangle is shown. The length of the rectangle is labeled 5 inches. The width of the rectangle is labeled 8 inches. A photographer wants to use a scale factor of 2.5 to enlarge a picture. What will the area of the picture be after it is enlarged? 40 in2 250 in2 100 in2 81.9 in2

Answers

Answer:

B. 250 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the picture:

5 in and 8 in

Area of the picture:

5*8 = 40 in²

Scale factor = 2.5

Enlarged picture's area:

40*2.5*2.5 = 250 in² (scale factor affects both dimensions)

Option B is correct

The area of the picture after it is enlarged is 250 inches².

Given that,

The length of the rectangle is labeled 5 inches. The width of the rectangle is labeled 8 inches.

A photographer wants to use a scale factor of 2.5 to enlarge a picture.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

Here, the dimensions of the picture are 5 in and 8 in

Hence, the area of the picture is,

5 × 8 = 40 in²

Since, Scale factor = 2.5

So, the enlarged picture's area would be,

40 × 2.5 ×2.5

= 250 in²

What is the y-intercept of this function?

6.50
17.13

Answers

Answer:

4.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x:   2  ,      5   ,     8     , 12

y: 8.50, 15.25, 22.00. 31.00

Required

Determine the y intercept

First, we calculate the slope:

[tex]m = \frac{y_2- y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

Where

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (2,8,50)[/tex]

[tex](x_2,y_2) = (12,31.00)[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{31.00 - 8.50}{12 - 2}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{22.5}{10}[/tex]

[tex]m = 2.25[/tex]

Next, we calculate the equation:

[tex]y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)[/tex]

Where:

[tex](x_1,y_1) = (2,8,50)[/tex]      

[tex]m = 2.25[/tex]

The equation becomes:

[tex]y - 8.50 = 2.25(x - 2)[/tex]

[tex]y - 8.50 = 2.25x -4.5[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = 2.25x -4.5+8.50[/tex]

[tex]y = 2.25x +4[/tex]

Take [tex]x =0[/tex]; to get the y intercept

[tex]y = 2.25*0 +4[/tex]

[tex]y = 4[/tex]

Hence, the y intercept is 4.00
