Answer:
<u>Fraction form:</u>
<u />
For every 3 dollars, there are 4 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the constant, find the rise (y-direction) and the run (x-direction). Of the two points on the line, the rise is 3 and the run 4. The constant is rise over run. So, it’s . This means that for every 3 dollars, there are 4 cookies.
Hope this helps! :)
Here's what I mean when I write <em>x/</em><em>2</em><em> </em><em>JUST </em><em>IN </em><em>CASE.</em>
а.
Let the total number of pencils be x, then this implies that Maggie received <em>x/</em>2 pencils from Katie. Maggie keeps 5 and give the rest to Jamil, this means
that Jamil receives
<em>x/</em>2-5 pencils.
b. Expression of pencils given to Jamil is: <em>x/</em>2-5
Substitute <em>x</em><em>=</em><em>1</em><em>6</em><em> </em>in this expression: <em>x/</em>2-5
Simplify and evaluate: = 8-5= 3
Maggie gives 3 pencils to Jamil.
c. Expression of pencils given to Jamil is: x/2-5 to
Equate this expression with 1 to form an equation and solve for <em>x</em> all, the total
number of pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil:
<em>x/</em>2 - 5 = 1
Solve for x:
<em>x</em> = 2(1+ 5)
Evaluate:
<em>x</em> = 2(6) = 12
Katie had 12 pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil.
RESULT
a. Expression of number of pencils given to Jamil is <em>x</em>/2-5, where x is total number of pencils.
b. Maggie gives 3 pencils to Jamil.
c. Katie had 12 pencils if Jamil received 1 pencil.
