Answer:

The number of Pencils purchased and the cost of pencils represents a proportional relationship.

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that proportional relationships between two variables have equivalent ratios.

For example,

3/12 = 9/36 is a TRUE proportions because both fractions reduces to 1/4, and because  12 × 9 = 3 × 36.

As our problem suggests whether the number of Pencils purchased and the cost of pencils represent a proportional relationship?

Given

  • Pencils $0.25 each

It means ach pencil costs $0.25.

So

  • If Sarah buys 1 pencil it would cost = $0.25
  • If Sarah buys 2 pencils it would cost = $0.5
  • If Sarah buys 3 pencils it would cost = $0.75
  • If Sarah buys 4 pencils it would cost = $1

Lets make a table:

No of Pencils Purchased               Cost

                  1                                   $0.25

                  2                                   $0.5

                  3                                   $0.75

                  4                                   $1

so

Cost/No of Pencils Purchased = 0.25/1 = 0.5/2 = 0.75/3 = 1/4

So cost per pencil = 0.25 : 1

Since all of the ratios are equivalent, this table is a proportional relationship.

Therefore, the number of Pencils purchased and the cost of pencils represents a proportional relationship.

Solve x2-8x=3 by completing the square. which is the solution set of the equation
Mazyrski [523]

we have

x^{2}-8x=3

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

x^{2}-8x+16=3+16

x^{2}-8x+16=19

Rewrite as perfect squares

(x-4)^{2}=19

(x-4)^{2}=19\\ (x-4)=(+/-)\sqrt{19} \\ \\ x1=4+\sqrt{19} =8.359\\ x2=4-\sqrt{19} =-0.359

therefore

the answer is

x1=4+\sqrt{19} =8.359\\x2=4-\sqrt{19} =-0.359

For Jack's birthday, his mom is taking him and 12 friends to the zoo. If she pays $11 for each ticket using her credit card, wha
Gemiola [76]
Jack's mom is purchasing thirteen tickets at a price of $11 each. This equals a total of $143 in total spent. If Jack's mom has a credit card limit of $500, then after purchasing $143 with the card, her available amount to purchase additional things is $357. This impact on her available credit is due to credit cards working on an available balance system. When Jack's mom first received her credit card, a set balance or total amount she could purchase with the card was set. In this example, her total amount she could purchase with the card was $500. After her purchase of the tickets for $143 was completed, she subtracted that amount from her total available of $500 and that is why her available amount to purchase is now $357.
