Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 7 coins total and 4 of them are nickels

if I take a coin out the probability that it WONT be a nickel is 3/7 or 0.57 because the total amount of coins is always the bottom number and 7- those 4 nickels would be 3. So therefore the answer would be D.

Which shows a correct order to solve this story problem? Kent and Curtis went to the state fair. They had to pay a total of $7.1
KiRa [710]
The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:

S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people

We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:

Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer

Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.

Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.

Find a linear equation whose graph is the straight line with the given property.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 9/8

Then read explanation and see here with 2 coordinates would make

if 3/4 = -6 then 1 = -8

y = -6x + c

-6 / 3/4  + 9/8 / - 0.5  = -2.25

therefore c = -2.25

y = -6x - 2.25

y = -6x - 9/4  and again 9/4 can be found easily if round up fraction decimal to 225/100 and divide by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

C1)    (0.5 , -0.75)

C2)   ( 1. -3.75)

y = mx + c

-3.75 - - 0.75  /   1 - 0.5  = -3.75 + 0.75 / 0.5

= -3 / 0.5 = m

m = -6

y = -6x + c

then this works given just one coordinate to solve for 1 or 2 sets given points

y - y1 = mx+c

y - - 0.75 =  0.75 (x - x1)

y + 0.75 = 0.75 (x - 0.5)

y + 0.75 = 0.75x - 0.375

y = 0.75 - 0.75   =  0.75x( - 0.375 - 0.75)

y = 0.75x -1.125

y = 3/4x - 9/8    as common denominators of 1125/1000 is 9/8 as we divide by  125 into the fraction as we start at 250 and check its half just like when finding common denominators we 1/4 the lower number and see if we can find its half or its double etc with the other num er as first step for 3sf numbers.
