Answer: Allison has 3/4 cups of flour left.

Step-by-step explanation:

Allison used flour twice, the first time she used 2.5 cups of flour, and the second time she used 3/4 cups of flour. Let's convert these two the the same unit.

2.5= 2 1/2 or 5/2

Let's make this have the same base so it will be easier to add 3/4 to it.

5/2=10/4

We know she used both of these amounts of flour so let's add them. 10/4+3/4=13/4

We know she used 13/4 cups of flour. Let's convert 4 cups of flour to have the denominator of 4.

4=16/4

Now, we just have to subtract how much flour she used to make the pie and cake.

16/4-13/4=3/4

Allison has 3/4 cups of flour left.

The monthly cost of driving a car depends on the number of miles driven. Lynn found that in May it cost her $420 to drive 500 mi
djyliett [7]

Answer:

C(d) = \frac{1}{5}d + 320

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

d \to miles

C \to cost

So:

(d_1,C_1) = (500,420) --- May

(d_2,C_2) = (620,444) --- June

Required

Express as a function

Start by calculating the slope (m)

m = \frac{\triangle C}{\triangle d}

m = \frac{444-420}{620-500}

m = \frac{24}{120}

Simplify

m = \frac{1}{5}

The equation is:

C(d) = m(d - d_1) +C_1

C(d) = \frac{1}{5}(d - 500) +420

C(d) = \frac{1}{5}d - 100 +420

Take LCM

C(d) = \frac{1}{5}d + 320
