Answer:

\frac{1}{4} lbs/person

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question: Find the rate of change for the situation:

A chef cooks 9 lbs of chicken for 36 people and 17 lbs of chicken for 68 people.

Given: 1st situation, A chef cook 9 lbs chicken for 36 people.

           2nd situation, chef cook 17 lbs chicken for 68 people.

∴ 1st situation, weight of chicken per person= \frac{9\ lbs}{36\ person} = \frac{9}{36}

  Weight of chicken per person= \frac{1}{4} lbs/ person

2nd situation, weight of chicken per person= \frac{17\ lbs}{68\ person} = \frac{17}{68}

Weight of chicken per person= \frac{1}{4} lbs/ person

In both the situation chef cook same amount of chicken per person, which is \frac{1}{4} lbs/ person

∴ Rate of change is \frac{1}{4} lbs/ person

snow_tiger [21]
9.4 Ft for the first one

7.5 Ft for the second piece

12 Ft for the Third

he uses 5.2 Ft from the first piece of wood so 9.4 - 5.2= 4.6ft
he uses 6.1 ft from the second piece of wood , 7.5 - 6.1 = 1.4 ft
Nathan didnt use any of the 3rd piece of wood , so he still have 12 Feet of wood remaining so, 12+4.6+1.4 = 18 feet of wood left that he didnt use.

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope intercept form
yan [13]

The equation of the given line is y = 5/6x - 2

The standard equation of a line in slope-intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + b

m is the slope of the line

b is the y-intercept

Using the coordinate point (0, -2) and (-6, 3)

Slope m = 3-(-2)/-6-0

m = 5/6

Since the line cuts the y-axis at y = -2, hence the y-intercept is -2.

Find the equation of a line;

y = mx + b

y = 5/6x + (-2)

y = 5/6x - 2

Hence the equation of the given line is y = 5/6x - 2

You and your friend are selling your old CDs. Your friend sells 14 the first day, and x the next day. You sell y the first day a
Deffense [45]

Answer: 30+x+y

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Commutative Property of Addition : a+b= b+a , where a and b are any arbitrary numbers.

Given : Number of CDs sold by friend on first day = 14

Number of CDs sold by friend on next day = x

Total CDs sold by friend  = 14 +x

Number of CDs sold by you on first day = 16

Number of CDs sold by you on next day = y

Total CDs sold by you  = 16+y

The expression that shows the total number of CDs sold both days =

Total CDs sold by friend  + Total CDs sold by you

=  14 +x+ 16+y

= 14 +(x+ 16)+y

= 14 +(16+x)+y   [By Commutative Property of Addition.]

= 14+16+x+y

= 30+x+y

Hence, the expression that shows the total number of CDs sold both days :

30+x+y
