so every 3 orange picks there are 2 green picks so 6 orange picks leads to 4 green pick and just keep adding to each side. 9 orange picks is 6 green picks, 12 orange picks is 8 green picks. Therefore you add 3 to 12 and get 15 which means 15 orange picks is your answer.

Josie read 246 pages of a book last month her older brother says he read about 3 to 4 times as many pages as Josie explain why 2

Answer:

2500 is not a reasonable estimate.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Number of pages read by Josie = 246

Pages read by older brother = 3 to 4 times as many pages as Josie

If x represents the number of pages read by her brother, we can write:

$3(\text{Pages read by Josie})\leq x \leq 4(\text{Pages read by Josie})$

Putting values, we get,

$3(246) \leq x \leq 4(246)\\738 \leq x \leq 984$

Since, 2500 does not lie in this interval

$738 \leq 2500 \nleq 984$

Thus, 2500 is not a reasonable estimate for the number of pages that Josie's brother read.

Select the correct locations on the graph<br><br> select the lines that represent functions

SpyIntel [72]

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the vertical line test, we can see which lines are functions, and which are not. If a vertical line were to hypothetically appear, would it touch more than one part of the line? If so, it is not a function.

The lines outlined in a black box are the correct answers.
