Let x represent the cost of a dozen roses. 5 dozen roses can be purchased for $62.50 . Consider the following equation. 5x = $62.50. Here the product and factor are known, thus divide by the factor on both sides of the equation.
5x $62.50
-- = --
5 $12.50
Now to find out the cost of 8 dozens multiply the value of x by 8.
8x=8 ($12.50) = $100
Answer would be $100.
64+(2x)=35(x-1)
expand
64+2x=35x-35
minus 2x from both sides
64=33x-35
add 35 to both sides
99=33x
divide both sides by 33
3=x
the number is 3
The equation would be:
y = 3x + 15
1) Table: It is pretty easy to do so, just plug in 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. for x and solve for y
2) graph (find slope): slope would be 3 shells/day that has a y-intercept of 15
3) you already defined the variables
4) 3(5)+15 = 15+15 = 30 seashells
I hope this helps!
Inversely proportional : it is relationship between two variables in which when one variable's value is increasing than other one is decreasing.
Situation A : The number of miles Rashid drives increases over a period of 5 hours.
→ in this situation both variable no. of miles and period of time are increasing. so it is not represent a inversely proportional relationship.
in next two situation , two variables are increasing with each other.
so we take last situation ↓
Situation : Robin has $100 to share evenly with his cousins at the fair. As the number of cousins who arrive increases, the amount that each person receives
decreases.
→ in this situation , both variable viz no. of cousins and amount they got is inversely proportional to each other. when no. of cousins are increasing than amount is decreasing. so this last one situation represent the inversely proportional relationship.

x= 5 x z= 3 = 15 (4y - 2z) = 60 - -30 = 30 so its C
