Multiple values of y for a single value of x is a sure giveaway that this is NOT a function. Please review definitions of "function." A function would be represented if no x value has more than one y value associated with it.
In order to find the price per bar, we divide the price by the amount of bars. For the first one:
15.37/10 = $1.54 per bar
The second package:
15.35/12 = $1.28 per bar.
The 10-pack costs $1.54 per bar and the 12-pack costs $1.28 per bar. The 12-pack has the better price per bar.
Now, let's look at the price per ounce. We do this in a similar way. We find the total amount of ounces in the package, and divide the price by the number of ounces.
In the first package, we multiply 10*2.1=21. We have 21 ounces in the first package. Now we divide 15.37/21. In the first package, we have 0.73 dollars per ounce.
Now, let's look at the second package. We start by multiplying 1.4*12=16.8. There are 16.8 ounces in the package. Now, we divide 15.35/16.8=0.91. So, in the second package, we have 0.91 dollars per ounce.
The cost per ounce of the 10-pack is $0.73 and the cost per ounce of the 12-pack is $0.91. The first package has the better price per ounce.
The better explanation is the second one, because I prefer the lower price per ounce, I think that the 1st pack is the better buy.
Answer: There are 12 bills for $20, 13 bills for $10 and 14 bills for $5.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of twenties be x
Let the number of tens be x+1
Let the number of fives be x+2
Amount from twenties will be given as
Amount from tens will be given as
Amount from fives will be given as
According to question,
So, there are 12 bills for $20, 13 bills for $10 and 14 bills for $5.
I believe it would be b.
explanation: use this rule: (x^a)^b = x^ab
