Here is the solution of the given problem above:
Let s= staples 
<span>c = chalk</span>

<span>c + 2s = 10 </span>
<span>3c + 2s = 18 </span>

<span>-c-2s = -10 </span>
<span>3c + 2s = 18 </span>

<span>2c = 8 </span>

<span>c = 4 </span>
<span>s = 3 
</span>Therefore, the price per chalk box is $4 and per stapler is $3.
So the total cost of the chalk and stapler would be $7. 
Hope this is the answer that you are looking for. Thanks for posting it here in brainly.

you need to find how much the output changes for each unit change in the input. (ie from an input change from 5 to 6 the output changes by three units and an input change of 3 (2 - 5 )  units the output changes by 9 units). This will give you the gradient of the equation. then you have to find out the y intercept by finding what the output is when the input is 0. Do this by multiplying the input by the gradient and then subtracting it from that inputs output. This will give you the answer A) 3x

(Sorry, its a bit wordy :) )

Reduce the fraction 36/48 to its lowest term
QveST [7]

Answer:

  3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

\dfrac{36}{48}=\dfrac{3\cdot 12}{4\cdot 12}=\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot\dfrac{12}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot 1=\dfrac{3}{4}

Effectively, divide both numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, 12.

Your sister is considering two different shapes for her garden. One is a square with side lengths of 3.5 meter, and the other is
Bess [88]
Hello! I can help you with this!

A. Okay. So, to find the area of the square all you have to do is the number square, or multiply the number by itself, in this case. 3.5. 3.5^2 is 12.25. The area of the square is 12.25 square meters large.

B. To find the area of the circle, you do pi*r^2. Radius is half the the diameter. Half of 4 is 2. 2^2 is 4. To multiply by pi, we can just do it as 3.14. 4 * 3.14 is 12.56. The circle is 12.56 square meters large.

C. The circle garden would give her the most space to plant, because 12.56 is larger than 12.25 by 0.31. The circle garden 0.31 square meters larger than the square garden.

Write a linear function f with the values f(-1)=-3 and f(2)=6.
dusya [7]

Answer:

<em>y = 3x</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of a Line</u>

Suppose we know the line passes through points A(x1,y1) and B(x2,y2). The slope can be calculated with the equation:

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

The point-slope form of the equation of a line is:

y - k = m ( x - h )

Where m is the slope and (h,k) is a point through which the line passes.

We are given the following values of the function: f(-1)=-3 and f(2)=6. The points are (-1,-3) and (2,6). The slope is:

\displaystyle m=\frac{6+3}{2+1}=\frac{9}{3}=3

Now find the equation of the line using the second point:

y - 6 = 3 ( x - 2 )

Operating:

y - 6 = 3x - 6

Simplifying:

y = 3x
