The amount of garbage, G, in tons per week, produced by a city with population p, measured in thousands of people, is given by G = f ( p ) The town of Tola has a population of 40,000 and produces 12 tons of garbage each week. Express this information in terms of the function f. Write your answer as an equation involving the function f.

12 = f(40)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

We are being told that:

G = tons per week

p = people in thousands

However, the relation existing between the amount of garbage that is produced by a city with population p can be expressed as:

G = f(p)

Similarly, they said there exists a total population of 40000 persons in the town of Tola. i.e. 40 thousand and also 12 tons of garbage is produced by week i.e. that will be the value for G.

Then, we have:

12 = f(40)

26 is 33.33% of 78

step-by-step explanation:

26 is what percent of 78?

26 is p% of 78

equation: y = p% * x

solving our equation for p

p% = y/x

p% = 26/78

p = 0.3333

convert decimal to percent:

p% = 0.3333 * 100 = 33.33%
