The graph starts flat but then curves steeply upwards. You can tell this by the sudden jumps in y-coordinates, illustrating that it keeps going further up faster and faster as the x-coordinates progress steadily.
= 2 pounds green, 6 pounds red
1/4 of 8 is 2 (8 divided by 4)
So he bought 2 pounds of greens apples.
8-2= 6. He bought 6 pounds of red apples.
If we firstly consider only the terms in x.
subtract 2x from both sides of the equation
⇒5+2x
−2x=2x−2x
+6
Observe that the x terms are eliminated and we are left with
5+0=0+6 that is 5=6 which is invalid
There is no solution to this equation.
1/2 Gallon is equal to 64 ounces
16 x 6 = 96
96 + 64 = 160
5 gallons is equal to 640
640 - 160 = 480
For this case we have two options:
Option A:
Tomato juice, 48 oz. can for $ 2.49.
The unit price is:
(2.49) / (48) = 0.05 cents per oz.
Option B:
Tomato juice, 6-pack of 10 oz. cans for $ 3.99.
The unit price is:
(3.99) / (6 * 10) = 0.07 cents per oz.
Answer:
The best buy would be:
Tomato juice, 48 oz. can for $ 2.49.
