Answer:

see bottom

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=yint

two points

cost=y

(4,5.5) and (7,7.75)

slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope=(7.75-5.5)/(7-4)=2.25/3=0.75

y=0.75x+b

find b

(4,5.5)

x=4

y=5.5

5.5=0.75(4)+b

5.5=3+b

minus 3 fromboth sides

2.5=b

y=0.75x+2.5

3 hours

y=0.75(3)+2.5

y=2.25+2.5

y=4.75

answer is D

Given:
hours     parking charge
4                 5.50
7                 7.75

7 - 4 = 3 hours
7.75 - 5.50 = 2.25

2.25 / 3 = 0.75

0.75 is the change in amount for every hour spent. It is the variable unit rate

4 hours is 5.50.

Cost of parking for 3 hours is: 5.50 - 0.75 = 4.75

0.75 x 4 hours = 3 
5.50 - 3 = 2.5 fixed charge.

total parking charge:  y = 2.50 + 0.75x

Explain your answer plez
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

50°

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, opposing angles must be equal.  Note how 75° = 75°.  Thus, opposing angles 2x + 5 and x + 55 must also be equal.

Solve this equation for x.

Subtracting x from both sides yields x + 5 = 55.  Next:  Subtracting 5 from both sides yields x = 50° (answer choice C)

Araceli made 9 identical bags using 4 yards of fabric. How much fabric did Araceli use for each bag?
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

Araceli would have used 2.25 (or 2 1/4) yards of fabric for each bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have the 9 bags you are making and they all must be the same because they are identical, so you divide the nine bags by the four yards and I got an answer of 2.25 yards per bag. The answer can also be 2 1/4 as well.
