Answer:
1 1/8 or 9/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion. The proportion will be teaspoons of chili powder over pound of vegetables.
The first proportion will be..
x is 3/4 and y is 1/2. Across from that proportion make another one
x is "n" because you're trying to figure out how much chili powder you need. y is 1 3/4.
Multiply 3/4 and 1 3/4, which is 9/16. Then, divide 9/16 and 1/2, which is 9/8. Simplify it to 1 1/8, and Maxwell will need 1 1/8 teaspoons of chili powder.
Hope this wasn't too confusing :)
Answer: Straight piecework plan
Step-by-step explanation:
The Straight piecework plan is a type of incentive system in which the rate per unit output is constant and fixed at a specific value. And the total earnings of a worker is calculated by multiplying the value of its total output by the rate per unit output.
In the case above the rate per unit invoice processed is fixed, so employees are paid based on the number of invoice processed per hour which makes it a Straight piecework plan system.
1. multiply 250 by 10% (250 * .1= 25)
2. Then subtract 25 from 250 (250 -25= 225)
2. Then multiply 225 by 16% (225 * .16 = 36)
3. Add 225 + 36 = 261.
4. 261 is your final answer
The fifth term of the geometric sequence would be 0.972
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Set this up as ratio of vinegar to oil in fraction form:
That's what we're given. If we are looking to find how much oil he needs if he's using 9 ounces of vinegar, then 9 goes on top with the vinegar stuff and x goes on bottom as the unknown amount of oil:
Cross multiply to get
5x = 90 and
x = 18
Which you probably could do without the proportions. If he is using 5 ounces of vinegar and double that amount of oil, then it just makes sense that if he uses 9 ounces of vinegar he will double that amount in oil to use 18 ounces.
