Gwen volunteered to work at the ticket booth for her school's Halloween carnival. The chart below gives the number of hours Gwen
n200080 [17]

A linear relation is a relationship between two variables that when the corresponding pair of values of the variables are plotted, a straight line is obtained

The equation for the relationship between hours Gwen worked and number of tickets is <u> t = </u><u>15·h</u>

<u />

The reason the above equation is correct is as follows:

The given parameters are;

The table of values;

Hours(h): 1, 2, 3, 4

Tickets (t): 15, 30, 45, 60

Required: To write an equation that gives the relation between the number of hours Gwen worked and the number of tickets sold

Solution:

From the given table, we have;

The common difference between successive <em>h-values </em>is 1

The <em>common difference</em> between successive t<em>-values </em>is 30 - 15 = 45 - 30 = 60 - 45 = 15 = Constant

Given that the common difference of the <em>h</em>, and <em>t-values</em> are constant, the relationship is a linear relationship of the form, t = m·h + c

Where;

m = The rate of change of <em>t</em> with <em>h</em>, as follows;

m = (30 - 15)/(2 - 1) = 15

∴ t - 15 = 15 × (h - 1)

t - 15 = 15·h - 15

t = 15·h - 15 + 15 = 15·h

t = 15·h

The equation for the relation between the number of hours Gwen worked and the number of tickets she sold is<u> t = </u><u>15·h</u>

<u />

An isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length, a, and a base, b. The perimeter of the triangle is 15.7 inches, so the equa
yarga [219]

Answer:

  [c] The value of w cannot be a negative number.

  [d] Substitution is used to replace the variable l with a value of 20.

  [e] The subtraction property of equality is used to isolate the term with the variable w.

Step-by-step explanation:

     To figure out which steps of the solution are true, let us solve.

2 l plus 2 w equals 62 -> 2l + 2w = 62

----

2l + 2w = 62

2(20) + 2w = 62  <- Substitution is used to replace the variable l with a value of 20.

40 + 2w = 62

2w = 22 <- The subtraction property of equality is used to isolate the term with the variable w.

w = 11

     This means that the value of w is <em>not</em> 10 feet so the first option is incorrect. This shape is a rectangle, so the value of w cannot be 0. Since we cannot have a negative measurement, option three is incorrect. This leaves us with the last three options as our answer, shown by the work above.

maxonik [38]

Answer:

$70.20

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to first find the cost per gallon of the gas.

The person in front bought 15 gals at $40.50. The price of each gallon will therefore be:

40.50 / 15 = $2.70

You need to buy 26 gallons. The cost will be:

26 * 2.70 = $70.20

You will spend $70.20.
