one colon one

three colon four

four colon three

sixteen colon four

Answer 16

its 17% of regular price...so 17% of 32 = 0.17 * 32 = $5.44
========================
protein in Brandy's = 9
protein in Tori's = 12
9:12 is the same as 9/12, which reduces to 3/4, which is the same as 3:4 (your answer)

Answer 26

what about this Match each actual value with the predicted value that results in a fifteen percent error.

Match Term Definition
Actual: eighty A) Predicted: ninety−two
Actual: one hundred twenty B) Predicted: one hundred two
Actual: one hundred C) Predicted: one hundred nineteen
Actual: one hundred forty D) Predicted: eighty−five

Answer 27

It does not say if the error is positive or negative

0.15(80) + 80 = 12 + 80 = 92 (15% increase) -- A

120 - 0.15(120) = 120 - 18 = 102 (15% decrease) -- B

100 = 0.15(100) = 100 - 15 = 85 (15% decrease) -- D

140 = 0.15(140) = 140 - 21 = 119 (15% decrease) -- C

sorry it took so long...had to figure out how to do it
