Let us suppose the number of balloons purchased is x in number.

It is given balloons are purchased for $.79 each

Cost of x balloons = .79x.

Total amount spent on purchasing balloons = $11.85

Cost of x balloons = Total cost of balloons.

.79x=11.85

With x .79 is multiplied .Opposite of multiplication is division.

We perform the opposite operation both sides

Dividing both sides by .79

x=11.85÷.79

x=15

Total number of balloons purchased is 15.

Answer:

$y=\frac{13}{6}x$ $y= \frac{11}{5}x$ $y = \frac{21}{9}x$ $y = \frac{19}{8}x$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The attached graph

Required

Equations with higher unit rate

First, calculate the unit rate of the graph

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

Where:

$(x_1.y_1) = (0,0)$

$(x_2.y_2) = (7,15)$

So:

$m = \frac{15 - 0}{7 - 0}$

$m = \frac{15}{7}$

$m = 2.143$

For the given options.

The unit rate is the coefficient of x

So: $y = \frac{19}{8}x$

Going by the above definition of unit rate.

$m = \frac{19}{8}$

$m = 2.375$

$y = \frac{27}{13}x$

$m = \frac{27}{13}$

$m = 2.077$

$y = \frac{21}{9}x$

$m = \frac{21}{9}$

$m = 2.333$

$y= \frac{11}{5}x$

$m= \frac{11}{5}$

$m= 2.20$

$y = \frac{15}{7}x$

$m = \frac{15}{7}$

$m = 2.143$

$y = \frac{31}{15}x$

$m = \frac{31}{15}$

$y = 2.067$

$y=\frac{13}{6}x$

$m=\frac{13}{6}$

$m=2.167$

The unit rates grater than the graph's from small to large are:

$y=\frac{13}{6}x$ $y= \frac{11}{5}x$ $y = \frac{21}{9}x$ $y = \frac{19}{8}x$

$m=\frac{13}{6}$ $m= \frac{11}{5}$ $m = \frac{21}{9}$ $m = \frac{19}{8}$

The height of a cone is twice the radius of its base.

fredd [130]

Answer: 2/3πx³

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the radius of the cone be represented by x.

Since the height of the cone is twice the radius of its base, the height will be: = 2x

Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h

where,

r = x

h = 2x

Volume of a cone = 1/3πr²h

= 1/3 × π × x² × 2x

= 1/3 × π × 2x³

= 2/3πx³

Therefore, the correct answer is 2/3πx³.
