Answer:

Answer is C P = 2x + 3y

Step-by-step explanation:

Selling price of candy bar X =$2

Selling price of candy bar Y =$3

So if Julie sells x from X candy bars and y bars from Y candy bars,

Profit made from selling X candy bars = 2\times x

Profit made from selling Y candy bars = 3\times y

Therefore, assuming that there is no cost for the candy bars the profit by selling candy bars can be represented by the following objective function:

P = 2x + 3y

Therefore, answer is C

Which expression is equivalent to 2 (14x-37+28x+12.2-5y-17.5)?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

A. 84x - 16y - 10.6

Explanation:

\sf \rightarrow 2(14x-3y+28x+12.2-5y-17.5)

\sf \rightarrow 2 (42x-8y-5.3)

apply distributive method: a(b + c) = ab + ac

\sf \rightarrow 2 (42x) -2(8y)-2(5.3)

\sf \rightarrow 84x -16y-10.6

How can you determine which two whole numbers an improper fraction will be located between on a number line
topjm [15]
Turn it into a proper fraction or even a decimal number.

For instance 13/2 = 6 1/2 or 6.5 which you can see would be between 6 and 7.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-2,-1) and has a slope of 5/2
Darya [45]

Answer:

y = (5/2)x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We'll look for an equation in the format y = mx + b, where mn is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

y = mx + b

m is (5/2)

y = (5/2)x + b

We need a value of b that will force the line through point (-2,-1).  Enter the point (-2,-1) in the equation and solve for b:

y = (5/2)x + b

-1 = (5/2)(-2) + b

-1 = -5 + b

b = 4

<u>The equation is y = (5/2)x + 4</u>

A direct variation function contains the points (-9, -3) and (-12,4). Which equation represents the function?
Triss [41]

Answer:

y = -\frac{7x}{3} - 24

Step-by-step explanation:

We can model this function using the equation of a line:

y = ax + b

Where a is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

To find the values of a and b, we can use the two points given:

(-9, -3):

-3 = a * (-9) + b

-9a + b = -3

(-12, 4):

4 = a * (-12) + b

-12a + b = 4

If we subtract the second equation from the first one, we have:

-12a + b - (-9a + b) = 4 - (-3)

-12a + 9a = 4 + 3

-3a = 7

a = -7/3

Then, finding the value of b, we have:

-12a + b = 4

28 + b = 4

b = -24

So the equation is:

y = -\frac{7x}{3} - 24
