In order to solve this we need to make on part of both statements equal.

Since 12 is divisible by 6 lets do that.

Multiply everything in the second package by 2.

It then becomes 6 pairs for $12.

So now  have have 6 or 8 pairs for $12.

You are getting a different amount for the same price therefore they are not proportional.

Gnom [1K]

Answer: 46

Step-by-step explanation:

You can simplify this using PEMDAS:

Parentheses

Exponents

Multiplication/division

Addition/subtraction

Move through the steps in that order.

In this case, the first two steps are absent, so multiply first:

20 - 16 + 42

Then, add and subtract:

46.

Shannon graphed the system of equations.
ehidna [41]
All you need to do is plug -5 into the second equation and you see it is near (-5, -8). When plugged into the top, you get (-5, -27/4) which comes out to ABOUT -6.75 for the Y value. The closest is actually a tie. The first option is .8 from the first and .45 from the second leading in a total distance of 1.25. The second, which is the fellow answer, is 1.2 from the first and .05 from the second, leading to 1.25 away.

The third, which is next closest is 1.8 from the first and .55 from the second leading to a distance of over 2 from the optimal, so only the first two are answers.

Find Domain of function using Interval Notation
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

[ - 4 , 4 ) ∪ ( 4 , ∞ )

The denominator of f(x) cannot be zero as this would make f(x) undefined. Equating the denominator to zero and solving gives the value that x cannot be.

solve x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4 ( is a vertical asymptote )

There is a zero when the numerator equals zero.

x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4 ( is a zero )

domain is [-4 , 4 ) ∪ ( 4 , ∞ )
