nces of fruit punch per person and 2 ounces of cheese per person. Including herself, there are 12 people in the club. A package of cheese contains 16 ounces and costs $3.99. A one-gallon jug of fruit punch contains 128 ounces and costs $2.50. Let represent number of people in the club, represent the ounces of fruit punch, represent the ounces of cheese, and represent Priya's budget in dollars. Select all of the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation.

Answer:

i) Number of people in club = 12

ii) 96 ounces of fruit punch for 12people

iii) 24 ounces of cheese for 12 people

iv) Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $7.87

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not given the options for the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation. We can tell we are to represent the information given above.

Number of people in the club = 12

8 ounces of fruit punch per person

For 12 people = 12×8 = 96 ounces of fruit punch

2 ounces of cheese per person

For 12 people = 12×2 = 24 ounces of cheese

A package of cheese = 16 ounces

The costs for 1package = $3.99

The costs for 16 ounces of cheese = $3.99

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = (24×3.99)/16 = 5.985

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = $5.99

One-gallon jug of fruit punch = 128 ounces

The cost of One-gallon jug of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs of 128 ounces of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = (96×2.5)/128 = 1.875

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = $1.88

Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $5.99 + $1.88 = $7.87

Cost per item for x number of people:

y = x(2.5/128) + x (3.99/16)

y = x(0.0195) + x(0.2494)

Cost equation for Priya's budget:

y = 96x(2.5/128) + 24x (3.99/16)

y = 96x(0.0195) + 24x(0.2494)

Since the total number of people to attend the meeting is 12, the constraint = 0≤x≤12

Each statement describes a transformation of the graph of y = x2. Which statement correctly describes the graph of y = (x + 4)2
alina1380 [7]
  • Vertex Form: y=(x-h)^2+k , with (h,k) as the vertex.

So the new equation is in vertex form. And looking at this equation, we see the vertex as (-4,-7) <em>(Remember that y = (x + 4)^2 - 7 can be also written as y = (x - (-4))^2 - 7).</em>

Since negative x-coordinates go to the left on the x-axis and negative y-coordinates go down on the y-axis, <u>your answer is going to be C. It is the graph of y = x^2 translated 7 units down and 4 units to the left.</u>

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (8, −2) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 3x + 4y = 15?
Inga [223]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the point-slope formula by the line

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)      when  x_1 =8   and  y_1 = -2    m :  is the slope (same slope for the line whose equation is 3x + 4y = 15 because are  parallel)

calculate : m

3x + 4y = 15

4y = -3x +15

y = (-3/4)x +15/4     so   m = -3/4

an equation is : y +2 =(-3/4)(x-8)
