<u>Answer-</u> C. For every extra person served, the time it takes to prepare a meal increases by 7  minutes.

<u>Solution- </u>

<em>y = 7x+25</em>

Where y = the number of minutes it takes to prepare a meal

           x = the number of people being served.

If the number of persons increased by one, so x' = (x+1)

Then y' = 7x' + 25 = 7(x+1) + 25 = 7x + 7 + 25 = 7x + 25 + 7 = y + 7

∴ As y gets increased by 7 for every 1 more person , so C is the correct answer.

Mashcka [7]

Answer:

E.200.5ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the composite figure we simply split it into two regular shapes, a half circle and a square, we then find the area of the two shapes individually and add them together.

Area of square = s² where s = side length

It appears the given side length is 12 so s = 12

Which means area = 12² = 144ft²

For semi circle

Area = 1/2(πr² ), where r is the radius

The side length of the square is shared with the diameter of the semi circle meaning that the diameter of the semi circle is 12

To convert to radius from diameter we simply divide by 2 so r = 12/2 = 6

We have area = 1/2(πr² ) and r = 6

So area = 1/2(π6²)

==> evaluate exponent

Area = 1/2(36π)

==> take one half of 36

Area = 18π

==> multiply 18 and π

Area = about 56.5

Finally we add the two areas together

Total area = 56.5 + 144 = 200.5ft²

Which expressions are equivalent to 6 (–x) 2x (–7) 2x? Check all that apply. X x 6 – 7 x 2x 2 x 3 – x 2x – 4 2x x – 1 x 1.

Equivalent expression is the expression which is equal to the original equation but the way of representation is different. The equivalent expression of the given expression are,

x+x+6-7+x

3-x+2x-4+2x=3x-1

Given information

The given expression in the problem is,

6+(-x)+2x+(-7)+2x

<h3>Equivalent expression</h3>

Equivalent expression is the expression which is equal to the original equation but the way of representation is different.

The given equation is,

6+(-x)+2x+(-7)+2x

As the product of the negative and positive is negative. Thus solve the equation by opening the bracket.

6+(-x)+2x+(-7)+2x=6-x+2x-7+2x\\&#10;6+(-x)+2x+(-7)+2x=-x+2x+2x+6-7\\&#10;6+(-x)+2x+(-7)+2x=3x-1

Check all the option,

  • 1) The expression given in the option 1 is,

x+x+6-7+x

Solve it further,

x+x+6-7+x=x+x+x+6-7\\&#10;x+x+6-7+x=3x-1\\

The result is equal to the result of the given expression. Thus the expression of the option 1 is equivalent to the expression given in the problem.

  • 2) The expression given in the option 2 is,

2x+2+x

Solve it further,

2x+2+x=2x+x+2\\2x+2+x=3x+2

The result is not equal to the result of the given expression. Thus the expression of the option 2 is not equivalent to the expression given in the problem.

  • 3) The expression given in the option 3 is,

3-x+2x-4+2x

Solve it further,

3-x+2x-4+2x=3x-1

The result is equal to the result of the given expression. Thus the expression of the option 3 is equivalent to the expression given in the problem.

  • 4) The expression given in the option 4 is,

x-1

The expression of the option 4 is not equivalent to the expression given in the problem.

  • 5) The expression given in the option 4 is,

x+1

The expression of the option 5 is not equivalent to the expression given in the problem.

Hence the equivalent expression of the given expression are,

x+x+6-7+x

3-x+2x-4+2x=3x-1

Two numbers have a sum of 18, and 4 times the first number minus the second number is equal to 17. What is the smallest number?
sammy [17]

Answer:

The smallest number is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using simultaneous equation;

x+y = 18.....(1)

4x-y = 17.....(2)

from equation (1)..

x+y = 18

y = 18-x...(3)

substitute y into equation (2)

4x-y = 17

4x-(18-x) = 17

4x-18+x = 17

4x+x = 17+18

5x = 35

x = 35÷5

x = 7

substitute x into equation (3)

y = 18-x

y = 18-7

y = 11

Therefore; x=7

y=11

11+7=18

(4×7)-11=17

the smallest number is 7
