4b+2c=36, solve for b, subtract 2c from both sides

4b=36-2c  divide both sides by 4

b=9-0.5c

Then we are told that:

7b+3c=59, using b=9-0.5c we get:

7(9-0.5c)+3c=59  perform indicated multiplication on left side

63-3.5c+3c=59  combine like terms on left side

63-0.5c=59  subtract 63 from both sides

-0.5c=-4 divide both sides by 0.5

c=8

So each souvenir cup costs $8.

(and each bag of cotton candy is $5)

On a piece of paper, graph y≥ x - 1. Then determine which answer choice
zhannawk [14.2K]

Based on the given inequality of y≥ x - 1, the graph that matches it best is C. Graph A.

<h3>How are inequalities graphed?</h3>

When graphing an inequality with the "greater or equal" and "less or equal" signs, the line will be a steady line as shown by graphs A and B.

If y is the larger or equal variable, the shaded area will be to the left of the line.

The inequality is y≥ x - 1 which means that the line should be steady and the shading should be on the left of the line. Graph A is therefore the correct graph.

What set of ordered pairs represents y as a function of x?
rusak2 [61]
The set {(1, 2), (2, -3), (3, 4), (4, -5)} represents y as a function of x
Question 2:
The best statement describes the relation is "The relation represents y as a function of x, because each value of x is associated with a single value of y" ⇒ 3rd answer
Question 4:
There are missing options so we can not find the correct answer
Question 5:
The sets {(1 , 1), (2 , 2), (2 , 3)} and {(1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 1)} do not represent y as a function of x ⇒ 1st and 4th answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The relation is a function if each value of x has ONLY one value of y
Ex: The set {(3 , 5) , (-2 , 1) , (4 , 3)} represents y as a function of x because x = 3 has only y = 5, x = -2 has only y = 1, x = 4 has only y = 3
The set {(4 , 5) , (-2 , 1) , (4 , 3)} does not represent y as a function of x because x = 4 has two values of y 5 and 3
