This is a linear function, of the kind y = mx + b
where x is the number of visit, b is the weight when x = 0, and m is the predicted change of weight for every visit.
m = - 4 ounces / visit, which must be converted to pounds (the negative sign indicates that the change is a decrease)
1 lb = 16 ounces = 4 ounces = 0.25 lb
Then m = - 0.25 lb / visit.
Now, for x = 1, y = 126 => 126 = - 0.25(1) + b => b = 126 + 0.25 = 126.25
Then the function is y = 126.25 - 0.25x
Now round to the nearest tenth:
y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer: y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer:
6.2+8.7+8.9x
Step-by-step explanation:
For expressions to be equivalent, they must simplify to the same lowest form. 8.9x+6.2+8.7 simplifies to 8.9x +14.9.
Each of the expressions below must simplify to 8.9x + 14.9 to be equivalent.
9x+6+9 = 9x + 15 NO
3.9+6.2+8.7x = 8.7x + 10.1 NO
3.7+8.9+6.2 = 18.8 NO
6.2+8.7+8.9 = 23.8 NO
6.2+8.7+8.9x = 8.9x + 14.9 YES
3.9+6.2x+8.7 = 6.2x + 12.6 NO
3.9x+8.7+6.2 = 3.9x + 14.9 NO
Answer:
9x+3.45
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's simplify step-by-step.
6x+3(x+1.15)
Distribute:
=6x+(3)(x)+(3)(1.15)
=6x+3x+3.45
Combine Like Terms:
=6x+3x+3.45
=(6x+3x)+(3.45)
=9x+3.45
