Mathematics

Answer:

Not Linear

Step-by-step explanation:

A linear equation is an equation of a straight line, which means that the degree of a linear equation must be 0 or 1 for each of its variables. In this case, the degree of variable y is 1 and the degree of variable x is 3.

Abby filled her goodie bags with 4 cookies and 3 candy bars and spent a total of $10.25 per bag. Marissa filled her goodie bags
Paladinen [302]
Let's start by writing a system of linear equations:
c -> cookies 
cb -> candy bars
(You can use any abbreviations to your preference)

Abby:
4 cookies 
3 candy bars
$10.25 per bag
The equation would be:
4c+ 3cb = $10.25

Marissa:
2 cookies
7 candy bars
$14.75 per bag
The equation would be:
2c + 7cb = $14.75

So our linear equation system would be:
<span>4c+ 3cb = $10.25
</span><span>2c + 7cb = $14.75

I would try to get rid of one variable so I can solve for the other variable. In this case, it is easier to get rid of c since I can multiply the second equations by 2. Then it would subtract the two equations.

(2c + 7cb = $14.75) 2 = 4c + 14 cb = $29.50

      4c + 3cb = $10.25
   -  4c+14 cb = $29.50                    (4c would get canceled.)
---------------------------------
             -11 cb = - $19.25                (Divide by -11 to solve for cb)
</span>             ---------   -------------
              -11           -11
            
             cb = $1.75

Now we know cb (candy bar) cost, we would substitute this value into cb into one of the equations. It doesn't matter which equation you put it in. I will substitute it in the first equations. 

  4c + 3 (1.75) = $10.25
  4c + 5.25 = $10.25                       (Multiply 3 by 1.75)
       -5.25       -5.25                         (Subtract 5.25 on both sides)
             4c = 5                                 (Divide by 4 on both sides to get c)
             ----   ---
              4      4
         
         c= 1.25

Check the work:
4(1.25) + 3(1.75) 
  = $10.25

2(1.25) + 7(1.75)
   = $14.75

Total cost:
cookies = $1.25
candy bars = $ 1.75

Hope this helps! :)

Shawna found coins worth $4.32. One- fourth of the found coins are pennies and one- sixth are quarters. The number of nickels fo
eduard

Answer:

8 quarters

12 nickels

12 pennies

16 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

The trick is to ASSUME the dimes.

Start by thinking about the three explicit premises and the one implicit premise.

1) Quarters = 1/6 of total coins

2) Nickels = 1.5 the number of quarters

3) Pennies = 1/4 of total coins

Also, ASSUME an unknown number of dimes to fill in the gap.

48 Total Coins = $4.32

⅙ of 48 = 8 8 quarters = $2.00

1.5 x 8 = 12 12 nickels = $0.60

¼ of 48 = 12 12 pennies = $0.12

Add those coins = $2.72

Take the known total and minus this sum.

$4.32 - $2.72 = $1.60

16 dimes = $1.60

Thus, you have the following:

8 quarters (⅙ of total coins)   $2.00

12 nickels (1.5 the number of quarters) $0.60

12 pennies (¼ the number of total coins) $0.12    

+ 16 dimes     $1.60

Total Coins 48      $4.32

Answer:

y = 3/4x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Put it in point-slope form:

y - 4 = 3/4(x - -4)

y - 4 = 3/4(x + 4)

y - 4 =3/4x + 3

y = 3/4x + 7
