Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x equal the mystery number.

With the given information,

$\frac{x}{-8} - 5 = -11$

$\frac{x}{-8} = -6$ add 5 to both sides

x = 48 multiply both sides by -8

What is the rate of change between (-8,- 8) and (0,8)

iren [92.7K]

${ \qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}}$

We need to find thr rate of change (slope) of the line joining these two points ~

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: m = \dfrac{rise}{run}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: m = \cfrac{8 - ( - 8)}{0 - ( - 8)}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: m = \cfrac{8 + 8}{0 + 8}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: m = \cfrac{16}{8}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: m = 2$

Slope of the line (m) joining the two points is 2 ~

Zhao Xue wants to buy milk and yogurt. She wants to buy a total of at least 6.5 gallons of dairy products (condition A), and she

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer: The answer is (D). Zhao Xue doesn’t have enough money left to buy any yofurt

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Zhao Xue is buying buy milk and yogurt, a total of at least 6.5 gallons of dairy products and she has a budget of $20. The given graph represents the constraints on the number of gallons of milk 'M' and yogurt 'Y' Zhao Xue buys. Zhao Xue buys 4 gallons of milk. We need to calculate the number of gallons of yogurt she can buy to meet both her constraints.

From the graph, we can write

Condition A :

$M+Y\geq 6.5.$

Condition B :

$8M+5Y\leq40.$

Now, if she buys 4 gallons of milk, the the conditions become

$4+Y\geq 6.5~~\Rightarrow Y\geq 2.5,\\\\8\times 4+5Y\leq 40~~\Rightarrow Y\leq 1.6.$

Here, there will be no solution to these constraints.

Therefore, she does not have enough money left to buy any yogurt.

Thus, the correct option is (D).

Neporo4naja [7]

Complete question :

Carly purchased 9 1/2 pints of ice cream for a party. If each guest will be served exactly 3/5 pint of ice cream, what is the greatest number of gusts that Carly can serve

Answer:

15 guests

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total pints of icecream = 9 1/2

Fraction of ice cream pints per guest = 3/5 pints

Number of guest that can be served :

Total pints / fraction per guest

9 1/2 ÷ 3/5

19/2 * 5/3

95 / 6

= 15.8 guest

Hence, greatest Number of guest that can be served = 15
