Answer:
3/8 of the box
Step-by-step explanation:
On Friday Merinda uses 1/4 of the box of pancake mix to make pancakes.
On Saturday she uses 1 1/2 times as much pancake mix as Friday.
On Friday = 1/4 of the box
On Saturday = 1 1/2 × pancake mix as Friday
Hence, 3/8 of the box of pancake mix does Merinda use on Saturday.
She had to spend 50 cents... since nickels value at 5 cents, 10 5 cent coins value at 50 cents
Hope this helps
<span>The rate is the ratio and the unit rate is the rate when the denominator is 1.
$279 for 9 tickets.
=> rate = $279 / 9 tickets => unit rate = $ 31/ ticket
$18 for 6 volleyballs.
=> rate = $ 18 / 6 volleyballs => unit rate = $ 3 / volleyball
4 fouls in 20 minutes.
=> rate = 4 fouls / 20 minutes => unit rate = 0.2 fouls / minute
36 strikeouts in 54 innings.
=> rate = 36 strikeouts / 54 innings => unit rate = 0.67 strikeouts / inning

The sequence is geometric. Any exponential function models geometric growth. Recall the general nth term of a geometric sequence is a*(r)^(n-1) which is very similar to the form y = a*b^x. The big difference is that the x function is continuous while the function in terms of n is discrete. In this case, the common ratio is r = 1.10 to indicate we have 10% growth. Notice how 100%+10% = 1.00+0.10 = 1.10
----------------------------------------
The first quadrant is where x and y are both positive. Since x is the time in years, it doesn't make sense to talk about negative years or negative years have passed by. We can have a negative balance in a bank account, so it makes sense to have y be negative. However, Mr Sullivan starts with some positive amount and his account grows every year. So there's no way that y can be negative in this case.
----------------------------------------
The point (0,200) is the y intercept. It represents the starting amount he deposited into the account, which was the $200. Keep in mind that no other deposits were made, and he cannot pull money out of the account if he wants his account to grow according to the graph. Also, the interest rate must remain at 10%.
