6. Jeremy runs a steel mill. To make a certain steel, 3 lbs of titanium is alloyed with 150 lbs of iron. If Jeremy wants to make that same steel using 4.3 tons of titanium, which equation can he use to find the number of tons of iron he must procure? 3 X 4.3 4.3 a) 4.3 X 150 3 b) 3 150 4.3 150 d) 150 3

x = 3, y = 150

k = y/x

k = 150/3 = 50

y = 50xwhen  x = 4.3

y = 50(4.3) = 215 tons of steel

step-by-step explanation:

when a number is between two straight lines it means the absolute value.

to find absolute value you need to know how many numbers is that number away from 0.

when finding absolute value the number will always come out positive

so absolute value of -3 is 3

absolute value of 3/2 is 3/2

absolute value of -2 is 2

absolute value of 3.5 is 3.5

absolute value of -1 is 1

now put these numbers in order:

a)   |-1|, |3/2|, |-2|, |-3|, |3.5|

25% is the answer
