At a pet store, Davina counted 12 parrots out of 20 birds. Which is an equivalent ratio of parrots to birds at the pet store?

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the equation?

To solve this you want to plug in your x's and y's to see if they match.

A. 3(11)-4=33-4=29 and 29 is not equal to 5 so A is not a solution

B.3(5)-4=15-4=11=11 3(3)-4=9-4=5 and 5 is not equal to 2 so B is not a solution

C. 3(2)-4= 6-4=2 2 is not equal to 3 so C is not a solution

D is the answer. 3(5)-4=11 and 3(2)-4= 2

What is the equation of the line?

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

y = 1/2 - 3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

All we need to do is find the y-intercept of the line using the formula for slope intercept form [ y = mx + b ].

-3 = 1/2(-3) + b

-3 = -1.5 + b

-1.5 = b

We can put all the information we know/solved for into the formula.

y = 1/2 - 1.5

Best of Luck!

What multiplies to 378 and adds to -51

Oliga [24]

Your answer would be -9 & -42.

Here's why ...
(-9)*(-42) A negative times a negative equals a positive (378).
Now, -9-42=-51 & you add these because you have two negatives.

Hope this makes sense & helps you ! (:

A 12.5 oz bag of Doritos costs $3.79. A 3 oz bag costs $1.00. What is the difference in unit rates?

Furkat [3]

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

12.5/3.79 = 3.2981530343

3.2981530343 rounded = 3.3

1/3 = 3.33333333333333

3.33333333333333 rounded = 3.3

3.3 - 3.3 = 0

Mrs. Nguyen used 1.48 meters of netting to make 4 identical mini hockey goals. How much netting did she use per goal?

snow_tiger [21]

0.37 meters of netting

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

<u>Given:</u>

Mrs. Nguyen used 1.48 meters of netting to make 4 identical mini hockey goals.

<u>Question:</u>

How much netting did she use per goal?

<u>The Process:</u>

We will solve the problem of conversion or in other words the ratio or proportion.

Option A: the conversion

Mrs. Nguyen used 1.48 meters of netting to make 4 identical mini hockey goals.

Then for every 1 goal, she needs 0.37 meters of netting.

Because $\boxed{ \ 1 \ goal \times \frac{1.48 \ meters}{4 \ goals} = 0.37 \ meters \ of \ netting.}$

Option B: the ratio (or proportion)

In the ratio, we process as follows:

$\boxed{ \ 4 \ goals : 1.48 \ meters \ of \ netting \ }$

Both are divided by 4.

$\boxed{ \ 1 \ goals : 0.37 \ meters \ of \ netting \ }$

Thus, she uses 0.37 meters of netting per goal.

Alternative problem

How much netting did she use for 8 goals?

$\boxed{ \ 8 \ goal \times \frac{1.48 \ meters}{4 \ goals} = \ ? \ }$ meters of netting.

We cross out eight and four because they can be divided.

$\boxed{ \ 2 \times 1.48 \ meters = 2.96 \ meters \ of \ netting. \ }$

She uses 2.96 meters of netting to make 8 identical mini hockey goals.
