Answer:

The required answer is $16x-8$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided expression 4/5 (20x - 10)

The above expression can be written as:

$\frac{4}{5}(20x-10)$

Now, use the distributive property:

Distributive property: a(b+c)=ab+ac

Use the above property

$\frac{4}{5}\times 20x-\frac{4}{5}\times 10$

$4\times 4x-4 \times 2$

$16x-8$

Hence, the required answer is $16x-8$ .

4/5 (20x - 10)...use distributive property...basically multiplying the 4/5 by everything in the parenthesis,

4/5 * 20x - 4/5 * 10 =
16x - 8

Consider the equation 1/3x−2=x+2. Write a system of linear equations using each side of the equation. Then solve the original eq

Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

(-6,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3x − 2 = x + 2 is obtained by equating the following two functions:

y = (⅓)x - 2

y = x + 2

Graph:

Draw two straight lines

1) joining (0,-2) and (6,0)

2) joining (0,2) and (-2,0)

On the graph, you'll see that the above two lines intersect at: (-6,4)

Hence the solution is (-6,4)

Find the line y=a+bx which best approximates the data points

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

y = 11.84x - 32.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given data points,

(−3,−70),(−1,−42),(1,−21),(2,−9),(4,14),

Let x represents the input value and y represents the output value,

So, the table that represents the given situation is,

x -3 -1 1 2 4

y -70 -42 -21 -9 14

By the above table,

$\sum x=3$

$\sum y=-128$

$\sum xy = 269$

$\sum x^2=31$

$\sum y^2 = 7382$

Let the equation of the line is,

y = bx + a

Where,

$a=\frac{\sum y \sum x^2 - \sum x\sum xy}{n(\sum x^2)-(sum x)^2}$

$b=\frac{n\sum xy - \sum x \sumy}{n(\sum x^2)-(\sum x)^2}$

n = number of data points = 5,

By substituting the values we get,

a = - 32.70547945 ≈ - 32.71,

b = 11.84246575 ≈ 11.84,

Hence, the equation of line would be,

y = 11.84x - 32.71

A shopper bought a 12-pound bag of oranges for 18.75. What is the unit price per ounce?

noname [10]

Answer:

About $0.10 per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

12 pound costs $18.75. Lets find the cost per pound first:

Cost Per Pound = $\frac{18.75}{12}=1.5625$

We know, there are 16 ounces in 1 pound.

We know 1 pound costs 1.5625

To find cost per ounce, we have to divide this by 16.

So,

Cost Per Ounce = $\frac{1.5625}{16}=0.097$

Rounded to nearest cent, that would be 10 cents per ounce
