I think your best option for an answer would be C. 8
Answer:
3 is the right one
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: Yes, they are similar- and the Scale Factor is 2.5
Step-by-step explanation: To find the scale factor, simply divide the larger number on the bigger shape by its counterpart in the smaller image, so for example: 60 divided by 24 is 2.5, and there is your scale factor. You can further test this by multiplying 4 x 2.5 which gives us 10, the other value on the larger shape.
Unless you just want to give money to the ice cream truck, for 0 items, you will pay 0.
Since the price of each item is $0.77, for one item you will pay $0.77. (Is that a surprise?)
Then for two items, you will pay $0.77 for each one, or $0.77 + 0.77 = $1.54. You can also compute this by making use of the fact that multiplication is a shortcut for repeated addition. The price can be found by $0.77×2 = $1.54 = f(2).
Similarly, for 3 items, you can add $0.77 three times: $0.77 + 0.77 + 0.77 = f(3), or you can use multiplication: $0.77×3 = $2.31 = f(3).
a) Our table looks like
(x, f(x))
(0, 0)
(1, 0.77)
(2, 1.54)
(3, 2.31)
b) By now, I'm sure you have realized that to find the price of x items, you multiply 0.77 by x.
f(x) = 0.77x
This equation is written in slope intercept form (y=mx+b where m is slope and b in the y intercept).
The m value here is -5 so that is the slope.
The b value here is 0 so the y intercept is at 0.
You can also find this by plugging 0 for the value of x.
y= -5(0)
y= 0
