Answer:

w/2 = 7.5/5

3kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Remaining question below:

Which proportion could Maddy use to model this situation?

a. w/2 = 7.5/5

b. w/7.5 = 5/2

Solve the proportion to determine the weight of a 2 liter jug.

_____kg

5 liters jug of sport drink weighs 7.5kg

2 liters jug of sport drink will weigh x kg

Find w

Ratio of weight to volume

7.5kg : 5liters=7.5/5

wkg : 2 liters=w/2

Equates the ratio

7.5 / 5 = w / 2

Cross product

7.5*2=5*w

15=5w

Divide both sides by 5

3=w

w=3kg

Therefore, weight of the 2liters jug of sport drink is 3kg

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

BC:BN=8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

ABCD is a trapezoid and there is a point m which belongs to AD such that AM:MD=3:5.Line "l" parallel to AB intersects the diagonal AC at p and BD at N.

Now, we know that the parallel lines divide the transversal into the segments with equal ratio, therefore, BN:NC=AM:MD

But, BC= BN+NC

Therefore, BC:BN=(BN+NC):BN

⇒BC:BN=(3+5):3

⇒BC:BN=8:3

5. the price of an ipod dropped from $299.99 to $180.55. what was the percent decrease in price? (round to nearest hundredth per
max2010maxim [7]
If you would like to know what was the percent decrease in price, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x% of $299.99 is $180.55
x% * 299.99 = 180.55
x/100 * 299.99 = 180.55
x = 180.55 * 100 / 299.99
x = 60.19%

100% - 60.19% = 39.81%

The correct result would be 39.81%.

horrorfan [7]
The slope:
m = ( y2 - y1 ) / ( x2 - x1 ) = ( 8  2 ) / ( 3 - 2 ) = 6 / 1 
m = 6  ( we have the same slope for AB and A`B` )
AB = √[( 3 - 2 )² + ( 8 - 2 )²] = √37
A`B` = 3.5 √37 = 21.29
