Here are some prices customers paid for different items at a farmer’s market. Find the cost for 1 pound of each item.
posledela

Answer:

  • 1 pounds of apples = \1·25
  • 1 pounds of cheese = \7
  • 1 pounds of coffee beans = \5·5
  • 1 pounds of fudge = \9
  • 1 pounds of pumpkin = \0·88

Step-by-step explanation:

Unit Rate is the ratio between two different quantities with different units

The ratio of cost per items is

=  \frac{dollars}{pounds}

4 pounds of apples  = \5

4 pounds = \5

Divided 4 both the side

1 pounds of apples = \1·25

\frac{1}{2} pounds of cheese = \3·50

\frac{1}{2} pounds = \3·50

Divided \frac{1}{2} both the side

1 pounds of cheese = \7

\frac{3}{2} pounds of coffe beans = \8·25

\frac{3}{2} pounds = \8·25

Divided \frac{3}{2} both the side

1 pounds of coffee beans = \5·5

\frac{3}{4} pounds of fudge = \6·75

\frac{3}{4} pounds = \6·75

Divided \frac{3}{4} both the side

1 pounds of fudge = \9

\frac{25}{4} pounds of pumpkin is = \5·50

\frac{25}{4} pounds = \5·50

Divided \frac{25}{4} both the side

1 pounds of pumpkin = \0·88

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-3, 5) and (1, 7)?
just olya [345]

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{7}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{7-5}{1-(-3)}\implies \cfrac{7-5}{1+3}\implies \cfrac{2}{4}\implies \cfrac{1}{2}

consider the equations y=3x+7 and 5x+2y=3. Solve the system equations by graphing. Give your solution to the system as a pair of
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

(1,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The two lines intersect at 1,4 when you graph them

The first equation is already in slope intercept from, so you know the y-int. is 7 and the slope is 3. However, the second equation must be put in slope int. form.

5x+2y=3

move the y to the other side

5x=3-2y

move the 3 to the other side, so the y variable is by itself

5x-3=-2y

divide by -2 to the equation is equal to y

(-5x/2)+(3/2)=y

you now know the y int. of the second equation is 3/2 and the slope is -5/2

know that you know the slop int. formulas for both equations you can graph them
