If
1 bushel = 48 pounds
and 1 pound = 3 apples
       48 pounds = x apples               cross multiply
x apples = 48 X 3 ==> 144 apples
1 bushel = 144 apples (because 48 pounds = 1 bushel)
315 bushel = x apples
x apples = 144 X 315
x = 45360 apples

The linear function f i with values f(-1) = 10 and f(5) = -1 is f(x)
zhenek [66]
Answer:

Use the two points to compute the slope, m, then use one of the points in the form <span>y=m<span>(x)</span>+b</span> to find the value of b.

Explanation:

The equation for the slope, m, of a line is:

<span>m=<span><span><span>y1</span>−<span>y0</span></span><span><span>x1</span>−<span>x0</span></span></span> [1]</span>

The equation <span><span>f<span>(2)</span></span>=−1</span> tells us that <span><span>x0</span>=2and<span>y0</span>=−1</span>; substitute this into equation [1]:

<span>m=<span><span><span>y1</span>−−1</span><span><span>x1</span>−2</span></span> [2]</span>

The equation <span><span>f<span>(5)</span></span>=4</span> tells us that <span><span>x1</span>=5and<span>y1</span>=4</span>; substitute this into equation [2]:

<span>m=<span><span>4−−1</span><span>5−2</span></span> [3]</span>

<span>m=<span>53</span></span>

Substitute <span>53</span> for m into the equation <span>y=m<span>(x)</span>+b</span>

<span>y=<span>53</span>x+b [4]</span>

Substitute 2 for x and -1 for y and the solve for b:

<span>−1=<span>53</span><span>(2)</span>+b</span>

<span>b=−<span>133</span></span>

Substitute <span>−<span>133</span></span> for b in equation [4]:

<span>y=<span>53</span>x−<span>133</span> [5]</span>

Check:

<span>−1=<span>53</span><span>(2)</span>−<span>133</span></span>
<span>4=<span>53</span><span>(5)</span>−<span>133</span></span>

<span>−1=−1</span>
<span>4=<span>4</span></span>

<span><span>
</span></span>

<span><span>Hope this helps </span></span>

What’s the difference between x and 4 is greater than 10
daser333 [38]

Answer:

There is a whole range of speeds at which you are allowed to drive, not just one. In cases like this where there is more than one correct answer, we use inequalities, not equations, to represent the situation.

Inequalities are mathematical statements that define a range of values. They are easily recognizable because they contain the symbols <, ≤,>, or ≥.
