Answer:

c=18.90-2.1r

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

A chef bought $17.01 worth of ribs and chicken. Ribs cost 1.89 per pound and chicken costs 0.90 per  pound. The equation 0.90 +1.89r = 17.01 represents the relationship between the quantities in this  situation.

Show that each of the following equations is equivalent to 0.9c + 1.89r = 17.01.

Then, explain when it might be helpful to write the equation in these forms.

a. c=18.9-2.1r. b. r= -10÷2c+9​

we have that

The linear equation in standard form is

0.90c+1.89r=17.01

where

c is the pounds of chicken

r is the pounds of ribs

step 1

Solve the equation for c

That means ----> isolate the variable c

Subtract 1.89r both sides

0.90c=17.01-1.89r

Divide by 0.90 both sides

c=(17.01-1.89r)/0.90

Simplify

c=18.90-2.1r

step 2

Solve the equation for r

That means ----> isolate the variable r

Subtract 0.90c both sides

1.89r=17.01-0.90c

Divide by 1.89 both sides

r=(17.01-0.90c)/1.89

Simplify

r=9-0.48c

therefore

The equation c=18.90-2.1r is equivalent

The equation is helpful, because if I want to know the number of pounds of chicken, I just need to substitute the number of pounds of ribs in the equation to get the result.

Leap years are years in which February has 29 days instead of 28. The device of leap year was invented to keep the calendar in s
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

As you know, a year has around 365 + 1/4 days.

This means that in two years, we have:

365 + 356 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 730 + 1/2

and so on.

adding this up, when we have 4 years we have a full day extra, this is:

1460 + 1

When we divide 1461 by 4, we have 365 with a surpass of 1.

The rule used to keep the calendar in sync with this extra day is adding an extra day to each fourth year.

So each fourth year, we have an extra day in Februray (the Februray 29th), this is called a bisiest year.

The "math rule" used to know if a year is leap or not is:

if a year is not divisible by 4, then it is a common year

else if the year is not divisible by 100 then it is a leap year,

else if the year is not divisible by 400, then it is a common year

if not, the year is a leap year.

Where "year" represents the number of the year.
