Answer:

y=-0.5x+32

Step-by-step explanation:

Let y represent the amount of remaining juice after x students are served.

We have been given that a teacher has a 2-gallon (32-cup) container of juice. She gives each student 1/2 cup of juice.

We will write our given equation in slope-intercept form of equation.

Since initially teacher has 32 cups of juice, so it will be y-intercept.

We are told that the teacher gives each student 1/2 cup of juice, so amount of juice will decrease by 0.5 cups after serving each student. This means that slope of the line would be -0.5.

Therefore, our required equation would be y=-0.5x+32.

Y = 32 - 1/2x

example : lets say that there r 30 students.....x = 30
y = 32 - 1/2(30)
y = 32 - 15
y = 17 cups......so 17 cups remain

A snack cart sells lemonade for $2 and hot dogs for $5. The vendor sold 86 items today for a total of $330. Which equation is tr
Alborosie

Let h be the number of lemonade sold. If the vendor sold 86 items today and h of them are lemonade, then the rest are hot dogs, so he sold 86-h hot dogs.

When you add the number of sold lemonade and hot dogs, then you get 86 items in total:

h+(86-h)=86.

This equation is exactly the same as equation

(86-h)+h=86.

Moreover,

1. if a snack cart sells lemonade for $2, then he gets $2h for h sold lemonade;

2.  if a snack cart sells hot dogs for $5, then he gets $5(86-h) for (86-h) sold hot dogs.

In total he gets $330, then

2h+5(86-h)=330.

Both these equations are true, but only first is among given options.

Answer: correct choice is B.

Olegator [25]

Answer:

  10/13 ≈ 76.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A∪B) = P(A) +P(B) -P(A∩B)

P(plays basketball ∪ plays baseball)

   = P(plays basketball) +P(plays baseball) -P(plays both)

P(plays basketball ∪ plays baseball) = 16/26 +9/26 -5/26 = 20/26 = 10/13

P(plays basketball or baseball) = 10/13 ≈ 76.9%
