Answer:
The temperature had dropped by 15 degrees (-15 if you don't want it positive.)
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay!
This is a subtraction problem.
If it started off at 10, and went down to -5, we can do |-5 - 10| (I am using the two bars because it said change.) And we get 15!
When x=-5, y=(1/5)*(-5)-1=-2, so the first order pair is (-5,-2)
when y=-1, -1=(1/5)x-1, (1/5)x=0, x=0, so the second ordered pair is (0, -1)
Answer:
6.25n + 3.50
$34.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Break down the important information given in the problem.
The one-time delivery fee is 3.50. This is only paid one time an never again, making it the <u>constant</u>, a number that does not change.
Each lunch costs 6.25. This amount will increase depending on how many times Mr. Jackson orders lunches, "n" times. This number is the <u>rate</u> because it changes. The rate is attached to the variable.
If you add the amounts together, that is the total cost of ordering lunches.
6.25n + 3.50
(Reember expressions do not have the equal sign).
To find the cost of ordering 5 lunches, use the expression. Substitute "n" for 5 because "n" represents the number of lunches ordered.
6.25n + 3.50
= 6.25(5) + 3.50 Simplify by multiplying 5 and 6.25
= 31.25 + 3.50 Add the two values
= 34.75 Total cost of 5 lunches
Therefore the cost of ordering 5 lunches is $34.75.
