<span>D. The amount spent on grapes compared with the weight of the purchase. In the other examples, the rate of change would be either very erratic (people on the bus, which would change suddenly and in large amounts depending upon stops, the girl's shoe size, which would change somewhat consistently, but with swings as growth spurts happened, or not at all, like the pizza example, which if you think about it, the amount of pizza doesn't really matter). The grape answer would have a set amount of pay based on weight (say $1 per pound), which would have a constant rate of change tied to the weight.</span>
Answer:
17/35
Step-by-step explanation:
Prob.
=DC/SS(desired chance/sample space)
=17/35
If John had to mow 8 lawns, but he forgot to mow 2 lawns, we have to subtract 2 from 8 to see how many lawns he actually mowed.
8-2=6
John mowed 6 lawns!
For each lawn John mowed, he earned 3 dollars. So, we have to multiply the number of lawns he mowed, 6, by the amount of dollars he earned per lawn, 3. Multiplying 6*3 is the same as adding 3+3+3+3+3+3!
6*3=18
John earned $18!
Hope I helped! :)
Answer:
A. x=3, y= -6
Step-by-step explanation:
x - 2y = 15
2x + 4y= -18
<em>Solving for x</em>
x-2y=15
<em>Subtract x from both sides</em>
-2y= -x+15
<em>Multiply both sides by -1</em>
2y=x-15
<em>Multiply both sides by 2</em>
4y=2x-30
2x+4y= -18
<em>Subtract 2x from both sides</em>
4y= -2x-18
<u>Combine equations:</u>
-2x-18=2x-30
<em>Add 2x to both sides</em>
-18=4x-30
<em>Add 30 to both sides</em>
12=4x
4x=12
<em>Divide both sides by 4</em>
x=3
Solving for y
x-2y=15
<em>Add 2y to both sides</em>
x=2y+15
<em>Multiply both sides by 2</em>
2x=4y+30
2x + 4y= -18
<em>Subtract 4y from both sides</em>
2x= -4y-18
<u>Combine equations:</u>
-4y-18=4y+30
<em>Add 4y to both sides</em>
-18=8y+30
<em>Subtract 30 from both sides</em>
8y= -48
<em>Divide both sides by 8</em>
y= -6
