To subtract a negative number from one you will need to set it up like this

1- (-x) x equals the negative number you're talking about

so we use the method KCC (keep change change)

So we KEEP the positive one, CHANGE the subtraction sign in to a plus sign "+" then CHANGE the negative number to a positive

lets say the negative number is 2

1-(-2)

1+ (+2)

1+2 = 3

when you subtract a negative number from any platitude number the equation changes to addition so you would add the value of the negative number to 1.

At a grocery store, the price of a watermelon is determined by how many pounds the watermelon weighs. The price of a watermelon
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

p=0.60w

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

p ----> the price of a watermelon in dollars

w ---> the weight of a watermelon in pounds

In this problem we have a proportional relationship

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem

p=kw

The value of the constant of proportionality k is the same that the unit rate

Find out the unit rate

Divide the total cost by the total weight

k=\frac{4.38}{7.3}=\$0.60\ per\ pound

substitute in the equation

p=0.60w

Find the inequality represented by the graph.
Rainbow [258]

Answer:

y>-2/3x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at the line, we notice that the y-intercept is 3, and the slope is -2/3, so using that information, we find the slope intercept form of the inequality, which is y(?)-2/3x+3 (the question mark is where the inequality symbol will be).

Looking at the line again, we see that it is shaded above (not below), so y is greater than the other side of the inequality.

Looking at the line AGAIN, we see the graph has a dashed line (not solid), so we are not dealing with an "or equal to" inequality.

Therefore, we should use the greater than symbol, creating the answer y>-2/3x+3.
