Hi there! 5 bottles of water for $3 would make $0.60 per bottle. 0.6 * 15 = 9. That means 15 bottles of water should equal $9, but instead it is $8. Based on that, no. The costs for bottles of water is not proportional to the numbers sold. Basically, you can divide to find unit prices and multiply the number of another item to see if the numbers are proportional.

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

a)

Step-by-step explanation:

hello,

because of the end behaviour the constant in  x^2 should be positive so we have a) or d)

f(0)=-3 in both cases

for A) f(x)=

x^2-3=(x-\sqrt{3})(x+\sqrt{3})

so f(x)=0 for x=\sqrt{3} \ or \  x = -\sqrt{3}

so the correct answer is A)

hope this helps

I don’t understand someone help me <br> 4-16=2+5 (s+14)
mel-nik [20]

Answer: s= - 8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify  4-164−16  to  -12−12.

-12=2+5(s+14)

−12=2+5(s+14)

2 Subtract 22 from both sides.

-12-2=5(s+14)

−12−2=5(s+14)

3 Simplify  -12-2−12−2  to  -14−14.

-14=5(s+14)

−14=5(s+14)

The answer to this problem
horrorfan [7]
Work backwards with pythagoras' theorem:
c^2=a^2+b^2
Here, a and b both equal to x. Therefore, you can write this as 8^2=2x^2. So 64=2x^2. Sqrt on both sides to give you 8=2x, hence x=4. However I must warn you that this working out may have a flaw, as I found that x actually equals to 5.66
