Answer:

7 7/8 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a bag of oranges weighs 5 1/4 pounds and you want to know how much do 1 1/2 bags weigh, the next proportion must be satisfied:

(5 1/4 pounds)/(1 bag of oranges) = (x pounds)/(1 1/2 bag of oranges)

Isolating x:

x = (5 1/4)*(1 1/2)/1

x = 7 7/8 pounds

One bag is 5 1/4 pounds so you need to multiply that by 1 1/2 or 3/2 as an improper fraction

21/4 x 3/2 =63/8   change that to a proper fraction to get 7 7/8 lbs

Leon graph y=12- 0.05 x to represent the number of gallons of gas left in his car after driving x miles.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Range of the graph is the ALLOWED y-values. The y-axis is number of gallons left in tank. So, <u><em>it cannot be NEGATIVE number of gallons, so 0 is the lower limit of the range.</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

As we can see from the axis of the graph, we see where the line cuts the y-axis, that is the upper limit of number of gallons he starts off with. The y-intercept (y-axis cutting point) is 12.

So we can say that the range is  0 ≤ y ≤ 12

Correct answer is B

Answer:

x + y = 1042

1.5x + 0.75y = 1140

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of regular fares paid.

y is the number of reduced fares paid.

1,042 total fares were paid

This means that x + y = 1042

A city bus collected $1,140 in fares on a given day. The regular fare is $1.50, and the reduced fare is $0.75.

This means that:

1.5x + 0.75y = 1140

System of equations:

The system of equations is:

x + y = 1042

1.5x + 0.75y = 1140
