A recipe serves 8 people, and calls for 5 lbs of apples and 2 cups of flour. You want to prepare it for 24 people. Divide 24 by 8 to get 3, and then multiply your ingredients by 3.

So for 24 people, you'll need 15 lbs of apples, and 6 cups of flour.

Jake bought 2 shirts and 1 pair of pants for $6. Mike bought 1 shirt and 1 pair of pants for $4. How much is each shirt and each

EastWind [94]

The cost of a shirt and a pair of pants is the same and is equal to $2. The correct option is B.

<h3>What is a solution to a system of equations?</h3>

For a solution to be the solution to a system, it must satisfy all the equations of that system, and as all points satisfying an equation are in their graphs, so solution to a system is the intersection of all its equation at a single point(as we need a common point, which is going to be the intersection of course)(this can be one or many, or sometimes none)

Let x represent the cost of a shirt, while y represent the cost of a pair of pants.

Given that Jake bought 2 shirts and 1 pair of pants for $6. Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is,

2x + y = 6 ..... equation 1

Also, Mike bought 1 shirt and 1 pair of pants for $4. Therefore, the equation that represents this situation is,

x + y = 4

Solve the equation for x,

x = 4 - y

Substitute the value of x in equation 1,

2x + y = 6

2(4 - y) + y = 6

8 - 2y + y = 6

-y = 6 - 8

-y = -2

y = 2

Substitute the value of y in equation 1,

2x + y = 6

2x + 2 = 6

2x = 6 - 2

2x = 4

x = 4/2

x = 2

Hence, the cost of a shirt and a pair of pants is the same and is equal to $2.

Determine algebraically whether the function is even, odd, or neither even nor odd.

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

odd

Step-by-step explanation:

Just so you know there are shortcuts for determining if a polynomial function is even or odd. You just to make sure you use that x=x^1 and if you have a constant, write it as constant*x^0 (since x^0=1)

THEN!

If all of your exponents are odd then the function is odd

If all of your exponents are even then the function is even

Now you have -4x^3+4x^1

3 and 1 are odd it is an odd function

This a short cut not the legit algebra way

let me show you that now:

For it to be even you have f(-x)=f(x)

For it be odd you have f(-x)=-f(x)

If you don't have either of those cases you say it is neither

So let's check

plug in -x -4(-x)^3+4(-x)=-4*-x^3+-4x=-4x^3+-4x

that's not the same so not even

with if we factor out -1 .... well if we do that we get -(4x^3+4x)=-f(x)

so it is odd.

satela [25.4K]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

r/6 <-6 multiply both sides by 6 to get

r < - 36

or 4r+2 > 18 subtract 2 from both sides of the equation

4r > 16 divide both sides by 4

r > 4
