Answer:

If "x" equals the amount of money first place wins, and if the total amount of prize money be denoted by "y", then,

y ≤ 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

First place wins the most money and each place wins less than the previous  place. The prizes are to be awarded for the best 3 acts in the show.

If "x" equals the amount of money first place wins, and if the total amount of prize money be denoted by "y", then,

You are mowing a lawn. After 12 minutes, 52% of the lawn still needs mowed. How long does it take to mow the entire lawn? Write
aleksley [76]
12/x = 52/48
12 * 48 = 52x
x = 11.07 This is one way to do it.

Let the time = x
Let the part of the lawn = y

The general equation
y = k*x
52/100 = k * 12
k = 0.043333 
y = 0.043333*x
y = 0.043333* 11.08
y = 0.48 which is what it should be.

Yet another way is to let y = kx
52 = k*12
k = 52/12
k = 4.33333333

y = 4.333333 * x
y = 4.333333 * 48
48  = 4.333333 * x
x = 11.07 which is just what you should expect.

Each week, a cook purchases 12 pounds of butter. During the last year, the cook has paid as little as $23.04 and at much as $29.

Much:  $29.40, For Butter he or she purchased in a week:

Question: is: what is the Difference between, the Greatest price per pound, and the least price per pound of butter the cook paid within the last year?


EQUATION:

Least Paid / 12  =====>  23.04 /12

Most Paid / 12  ======>    29.40 / 12



Divide:

23.04 / 12    =     1.92 / LB

29.40 / 12     =     2.45 / LB

Now Subtract:

2.45   -     1.92

Answer   ======>    0.53 is the difference, between the greatest price per round, and least price per round of butter the cook would have paid within the last year.






Hope that helps!!!                                : )

How did they get that vertex
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:A vertex (or node) of a graph is one of the objects that are connected together. The connections between the vertices are called edges or links. A graph with 10 vertices (or nodes) and 11 edges (links).

Step-by-step explanation: (The vertex formula is derived from the completing-the-square process, just as is the Quadratic Formula. In each case, memorization is probably simpler than completing the square.) For a given quadratic y = ax2 + bx + c, the vertex (h, k) is found by computing h = –b/2a, and then evaluating y at h to find k.

A first number is nine less than a second. The sum of the numbers is 45. Find the numbers.
oee [108]

Answer:

The first number is <u>18</u> and the second number is <u>27</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A first number is nine less than a second.

The sum of the numbers is 45.

Now, to find the numbers.

Let the second number be x.

And the first number be x-9.

The sum of the both numbers is 45.

According to question:

(x-9)+x=45.

⇒ x-9+x=45.

⇒ 2x-9=45.

<em>Adding both sides by 9 we get:</em>

⇒ 2x=54.

<em>Dividing both sides by 2 we get:</em>

⇒ x=27.

<u><em>The second number = 27</em></u>.

Now, to get the first number we put the value of x:

x-9

=27-9

=18.

Therefore, the first number is 18 and the second number is 27.
