Answer:

a = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, a. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Divide -8 from both sides:

(-8a)/-8 = (24)/-8

a = 24/-8

a = -3

a = -3 is your answer.

Answer:

Option no C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Price of crackers $ 9 for 3 boxes

Price of Granola Bars $6 for 3 boxes

Total bought $ 20 worth of snacks

To find the equation

Solution:

Price of cracker $ 9 for 3 boxes

price of one box of a cracker = $ 9 / 3

=$ 3 per box

Price of granola bars $ 6 for 3 boxes

price of one box of a granola bars = $ 6 / 3

=$ 2 per box

Let total crackers bought are x

price of x crackers will be 3x

Let granola bars bought are y

price of y granola bars will be 2y

as total price is 20

so price of x crackes + y granolas = 20

which will be

3x + 2y = 20

which will be option no C

The function a(1) =1/2I^2 describes the area of an isosceles right triangle with leg I. Make a table of values for I=1,2,3 and 4

prohojiy [21]

Functions can be represented using equations, graphs and tables.

The function is given as:

$a(l) = \frac 12 l^2$

When l = 1, we have:

$a(1) = \frac 12 \times 1^2$

$a(1) = 0.5$

When l = 2, we have:

$a(2) = \frac 12 \times 2^2$

$a(2) = 2.0$

When l = 3, we have:

$a(3) = \frac 12 \times 3^2$

$a(3) = 4.5$

When l = 4, we have:

$a(4) = \frac 12 \times 4^2$

$a(4) = 8.0$

Represent the above results as a table, we have:

1 0.5

2 2.0

3 4.5

4 8.0
