Games Played by Alex = y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Games played by Sam

Let y = Games played by Alex

Making Equations of given statements:

Sam played 4 more games than Alex did : 4+x=y

together they played 12 games: x+y = 12

Putting value of y=4+x into the equation x+y = 12

x+y=12\\x+(4+x)=12\\x+4+x=12\\2x=12-4\\2x=8\\x=4

Putting value of x=4 into 4+x=y

4+x=y\\4+4=y\\8=y

So, Games Played by Alex =y= 8

Sylvie bought 13 bagels and a container of cream cheese.Each bagel cost the same price.The cream cheese cost $2.95.Sylvie spent
Taya2010 [7]
Ok, first set this up as an equation with your given variables. You know that Sylvie bought 1 container of cream cheese, which is $2.95, and you know that Sylvie spent $7.50 <u>(my best assumption is this is the subtotal)</u><u /> on the cream cheese and 13 bagels. As an equation, it would come out as:

7.50=2.95+13(b)

To start solving the algebraic equation, wou can subtract 2.95 on both sides, resulting as 

4.55=13 (b)

Now, to get "b" by itself, you must divide 13 on both sides, resulting as

.35=b

This will answer your question as the cost of 1 bagel would be $0.35 per bagel.

Answer A, B, C, Please, and Thanks!
DochEvi [55]

A) The variable on the horizontal axis of the graph (the independent variable) is "pounds of rice". That is what the first number in the ordered pair (6, 18) represents.

The variable on the vertical axis of the graph (the dependent variable) is "total cost in dollars". That is what the second number in the ordered pair represents.

(6, 18) represents that the total cost of purchasing 6 lbs of rice is $18.

B) The unit price is found at the point where the independent variable has the value 1. That would be at the point (1, 3), which indicates the unit price is $3 per pound.

C) You would have to buy 4 lbs of rice for the total cost to be $12. There are at least two ways to find the answer.

  1. Draw a horizontal line on the graph at cost = $12. It intersects the graph at lbs = 4.
  2. Divide the total cost by the unit price. $12/($3/lb) = 4 lb.

answer to #10 and #13. can’t figure out how to use interval notation to write domain and range for graphs.
Lyrx [107]
Interval notation is used to write a set of real numbers from one value to another value.
On the left, you start with left parenthesis or left bracket.
Then you follow by two numbers separated by a comma.
You then finish with a right parenthesis or right bracket.
To include a number, use a square bracket.
To exclude a number use parenthesis.
To write the set of numbers, you need to list the smallest number in the set followed by the largest number in the set. An interval is always stated with two numbers, from the smallest in the set to the largest in the set. The numbers are always separated by a comma.

Examples:

1) All numbers from 6 to 10, including 6 and 10.
Algebra: 6 <= x <= 10
Interval: [6, 10]
Notice brackets since both 6 and 10 are included in this interval.

2) All number from 5 to 20, including 5 but not including 20.
Algebra 5 <= x < 20
Interval: [5, 20)
Bracket with 5 means include 5. Parenthesis with 20 means 20 is not included.

3) All numbers greater than or equal to 7.
Algebra: x >= 7
Interval: [7, ∞)
The 7 has a bracket because it is included. Infinity always has parenthesis.
With the infinity symbol, always use parenthesis, not square bracket.

4) All numbers less than -5.
Algebra: x < - 5
Interval: (-∞, 5)

Now for your problems.

10.
This is a line. Both the domain and range all all real numbers.
That means the interval is from negative infinity to positive infinity.
(-∞, ∞)
Both the domain and range are that same interval, all real numbers, from negative infinity to positive infinity.

13.
The domain is all real numbers as you can see the x-coordinates extend left forever and right forever. The domain is the same interval as the domain and range of problem 10.

The range is zero and all positive numbers.
You can think of it a all values of y such that y is greater than or equal to zero. Notice that zero is included in the interval.

[0, ∞)

Since zero is included, we use a left bracket, not left parenthesis.
With infinity, we alyways use parentheses, not brackets.
