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.

How can parallel lines be used to compare figures E and F? Explain your reasoning.
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The similarities are

1) The length of E and F can be described by two parallel lines spaced 3 blocks apart where the parallel line on the left of both E and F is 2 blocks long, while the parallel line on the right is one block long

2) Both height of E and F can be described by two parallel lines spaced 2 blocks apart  where the parallel line on the top of both E and F is 3 blocks long, while the parallel line at the bottom is one block long

3) The interior of E an F can be described by parallel lines 2 blocks long in the horizontal portion and one block long in the vertical portion

The differences are

1) The difference between E and F is that the parallel lines used for the construction of E are all one block higher than that of F

2) The other difference is that all the lines used for the construction of the figure E are 3 blocks to the left of those used for the construction of F

Figure F is essentially the translation of figure E three blocks to right and one block down

Simplify by factoring. What are the excluded values? Choose all that apply.
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

x = -2

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Excluded values are the ones which make the denominator zero

3x² + x - 10

3x² + 6x - 5x - 10

3x(x + 2) - 5(x + 2)

(x + 2)(3x - 5)

x² - 6x - 16

x² - 8x + 2x - 16

x(x - 8) + 2(x - 8)

(x - 8)(x + 2)

[(x + 2)(3x - 5)] ÷ [(x - 8)(x + 2)]

(3x - 5)/(x - 8)

So excluded values are 8, -2
