15. 3x - 2y = -2
3x - 3x - 2y = -3x - 2
-2y = -3x - 2
-2 -2
y = 1.5x + 1
y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
y - 3 = ⁻²/₃(x - (-2))
y - 3 = ⁻²/₃(x + 2)
y - 3 = ²/₃(x) - ²/₃(2)
y - 3 = ⁻²/₃x - 1¹/₃
+ 3 + 3
y = ⁻²/₃x + 1²/₃
16. 230 = 0.2s + 150
- 150 - 150
80 = 0.2s
0.2 0.2
400 = s
17. y = 2x + 2
So, 8 ounces is equivalent to .5 pounds. Therefore, 32 ounces is equivalent to 2 pounds. Or, there are 4 8ounce measurements to get to 2 pounds.
752 calories * 4 = 3008 calories in 2 pounds of ice cream.
a.
h = 2c - 3
b.
3h + 1.5c = 201
c.
We have a system of equations from part a and b.
h = 2c - 3 (equation 1)
3h + 1.5c = 201 (equation 2)
We use substitution method to solve this system.
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2 to get
3h + 1.5c = 201
>> 3(2c - 3) + 1.5c = 201
>> 6c - 9 + 1.5c = 201
>> 7.5c = 201 + 9
>> 7.5c = 210
>> c = 210 / 7.5
>> c = 28
Plug this value back in equation 1 to get
h = 2c - 3
>> h = 2(28) - 3 = 56 - 3 = 53
So, c = 28 and h = 53 implies that <u>28 corndogs</u> and 53 hotdogs were sold.
let
r--------> Alvin's average paddling rate in km/hour
y -------> speed of the current
in km/hour
we know that
speed= distance/time
------> solve for distance
distance=speed*time
to Campsite against the current
speed=r-y-----> speed=(r-3)
time=8 hours
distance=(r-3)*8------> equation 2
From Campsite with the current
speed=r+y-----> speed=(r+3)
time=3 hours
distance=(r+3)*3------> equation 1
equate equation 1 and equation 2-----> because is the same distance
(r+3)*3=(r-3)*8----> 3r+9=8r-24----> 8r-3r=24+9-----> 5r=33----> r=6.6 km/hour
therefore
the answer is
Alvin's average paddling rate is 6.6 km/hour
