Answer:
The answer to your question is Katie had 15 rocks and Oliver 45 rocks.
Step-by-step explanation:
Conditions
Katie has x amount of rocks
Oliver has 3x amount of rocks
The final amount of rocks
Oliver = 3x + 75
Katie = x + 105
Now, they have the same amount of rocks, then we can equal both equations
3x + 75 = x + 105
Solve for x
3x - x = 105 - 75
2x = 30
x = 30/2
x = 15
Conclusions
At first Katie had 15 rocks and Oliver had 3(15) = 45 rocks
In an isosceles triangle, two sides are equal to each other. So, we know that the third side is either 6 or 15 inches.
If the third side is 6 inches, it would not make a triangle. The sum of any to sides of a triangle must be larger than the third side. However, 6+6 is LESS than 15, so 6 inches would not be the answer.
By process of elimination, the third side is 15 inches. Good luck!
Since they tell us that this is linear, having a constant rate of change, we can express this as a line:
y=mx+b, where m=slope (change in y divided by change in x) and b=y-intercept (value of y when x=0)
First find the slope, or m, which mathematically is:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1), in this case:
m=(880-440)/(2000-1000)
m=440/1000
m=0.44, so far our line is:
y=0.44x+b, now we can use either data point to solve for b, I'll use (1000,440)
440=0.44(1000)+b
440=440+b
0=b, so our line is just:
y=0.44x
Answer:
This is False
