Brand 2 is the best value ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us write the Brand, Number of Packets and Cost

→ Brand : Number of Packets : Cost
→ 1 : 12 : $10.68
→ 2 : 16 : $9.44
→ 3 : 18 : $15.30
→ 4 : 24 : $21.84
→ 5 : 30 : $20.40

We need to find what brand is the best value

To find that let us find the price of each packet in each brand, by dividing the price of the brand by the number of the packets, the cheapest price is the best

∵ Brand 1 has 12 packets

∵ The price of Brand 1 is $10.68

∴ The price of each packet = 10.68 ÷ 12 = 0.89

∴ The price of each packet in Brand 1 is $0.89

∵ Brand 2 has 16 packets

∵ The price of Brand 2 is $9.44

∴ The price of each packet = 9.44 ÷ 16 = 0.59

∴ The price of each packet in Brand 2 is $0.59

∵ Brand 3 has 18 packets

∵ The price of Brand 3 is $15.30

∴ The price of each packet = 15.30 ÷ 18 = 0.85

∴ The price of each packet in Brand 3 is $0.85

∵ Brand 4 has 24 packets

∵ The price of Brand 4 is $21.84

∴ The price of each packet = 21.84 ÷ 24 = 0.91

∴ The price of each packet in Brand 4 is $0.91

∵ Brand 5 has 30 packets

∵ The price of Brand 5 is $20.40

∴ The price of each packet = 20.40 ÷ 30 = 0.68

∴ The price of each packet in Brand 5 is $0.68

∵ The least price of a packet is in Brand 2

∴ The cheapest price is Brand 2

Brand 2 is the best value

Drag expressions into order to show a way to find 3 × 56.

lina2011 [118]

As we could "drag" these together, we could then do it the easy way.

56
+56
+56
-------
168
------------------------

Or we could also do the following:

56 $*$ 3:

6 $*$ 3= 18.

Carry the one.

5 $*$ 3 = 15+1 (which was carried). = 16

(16+8) = 168

Recall from Intermediate Algebra that two non-vertical lines are perpendicular if and only if they have negative reciprocal slop

OLEGan [10]

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

The line is $y = -4 x$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The line is $y = \frac{1}{4} x + 8$

The point is P(0,0 )

Generally the equation for a line is $yn = mx + c$

Now comparing this with the given equation we see that

$m =\frac{1}{4} = slope$

$C =8 = intercept$

Generally the slope of the perpendicular to the given line is mathematically evaluated as

$m_1 = - \frac{1}{m}$

=> $m_1 = - \frac{1}{ \frac{1}{4}}$

=> $m_1 = -4$

Generally from the univesal equation of a line and the given point we have that

y = mx + c at p(0,0) and $m_1 = -4$ is

0 = -4 (0 ) + c

=> c = 0

Hence the equation perpendicular to the line given at the point given is

$y = -4 x$

Solve the equation.<br><br>5/7=10/x+2

skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

$x=-\frac{70}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable by doing operations to both sides of the equation.

The work is shown below:

$\frac{5}{7} =\frac{10}{x} +2\\\\\frac{5}{7} - 2=\frac{10}{x} +2 - 2\\\\-\frac{9}{7} = \frac{10}{x}\\\\ -\frac{9}{7}*x = \frac{10}{x}*x\\\\ -\frac{9}{7}x = 10\\\\ -\frac{9}{7}x * (-\frac{7}{9})= 10 * (-\frac{7}{9}) \\\\x=-\frac{70}{9}$
