Answer:

1:5

Step-by-step explanation:

  Their is 2 red pens, because 20(pens) - 8(blue pens) = 12(pens [blue excluded]) and there are 10 black pens (12 - 10 = 2)

  So we can get an un-simplified ratio of 2:10, however in the list of answers you gave us:

  • 1:10
  • 1:5
  • 4:5
  • 5:1

  Their is no 2:10, so now we need to simplify our ratio by dividing both 2 and 10 by 2, 2 divided by 2 = 1 and 10 divided by 2 = 5. As we can now see this gives us the ratio of 1:5 which is our second answer choice, and therefore since 1:5 is equal to 2:10 our answer is 1:5

The price of a gym membership has a one-time sign-up fee and a monthly fee. The price can be modeled by the function y = 10x + 1
monitta
15; it represents the one-time sign-up fee

The y-intercept can be found either on the graph where the line intercepts the y-axis, or b in the equation y=mx+b.

It represents the fee because it will be charged even if the number of months (x) is zero. 10 is the monthly fee because it is multiplied by x, the number of months.
