Answer:

linear equation in Standard form that can be used to determine how many of each prize Caleb can buy is 1.25x+ 2.50y = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total cost spent on prizes for games = $25

Cost of one lip balm = $1.25

Cost of one mini notebook  = $2.50

A) linear equation in STANDARD FORM that can be used to determine how many of each prize she can buy.

Let the number of lip balms be x and the number of mini note books be y. Then

1.25x+ 2.50y = 25

B. Graph the equation using x- and y- intercepts.

Now by trial and error method

1.25(0)+ 2.50(10) = 25

1.25(2)+ 2.50(9) = 25

1.25(4)+ 2.50(8) = 25

1.25(6)+ 2.50(7) = 25

1.25(8)+ 2.50(6) = 25

1.25(10)+ 2.50(5) = 25

1.25(12)+ 2.50(4) = 25

1.25(14)+ 2.50(3) = 25

1.25(16)+ 2.50(2) = 25

1.25(18)+ 2.50(1) = 25

1.25(20)+ 2.50(0) = 25

Thus Caleb can buy 0,2,4,6,8,9,10,12,14,1,6,18,20 lip balms and

0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10 mini note books respectively

Now plotting these value in the graph, we get the below graph

For what value of x does (x + 3)^2-5=0
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

x = -3±sqrt( 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 3)^2-5=0

Add 5 to each side

(x + 3)^2-5+5=0+5

(x + 3)^2 = 5

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x + 3)^2 )=±sqrt( 5)

x+3 = ±sqrt( 5)

Subtract 3 from each side

x+3-3 = -3±sqrt( 5)

x = -3±sqrt( 5)

Tom sells baseball cards at 10 for 35 cents. Is that a better deal than 12 for 40 cents?
AVprozaik [17]
For either one of the deals, just find what one card equals and times it by how many cards the other equation has.

e.g. 0.35 cents divide by 10 = 0.035. And now, you times it by 12 since the other deal is 12 cards for 40 cents.

0.035 x 12 = 0.48

So, 10 cards for 35 cents is not the better deal.

Write the standard form of the equation y+4=12/7(x-1)
Goshia [24]
This is the eqn of a str line.    <span>y+4=12/7(x-1) would be clearer if written as

</span><span>y+4=(12/7)(x-1).     y+4 = (12/7)x - 12/7.  

Multiply all terms by 7 to remove the fractions:  7(y+4) = 12x - 12.

Complete the multiplication:                            7y + 28 = 12x - 12.

Arrange the x and y terms on the left side and the constants on the right:

-12x + 7y = -40.  This is standard form.  Some people might disagree and say that -12x + 7y + 40 is standard form.  They are equivalent.
