Answer:

The equation is : 11.5-x

Step-by-step explanation:

Ramiro brought home ten pounds of rice to add to the 24 ounces of rice he had in the pantry.

First we will convert the ounces to pounds to get total rice in pounds.

1 ounce = 0.0625 pounds

So, 24 ounces = 24\times0.0625=1.5 pounds

Total rice in pounds = 10+1.5=11.5 pounds.

Let x represent the amount of rice Ramiro uses over the next few days.

Therefore, the expression to describe the amount of rice remaining in Ramiro's pantry is = 11.5-x

Amount of rice as a function of amount used, x, in pounds:

r(x)= 11.5- x

Constraints can be defined as:

0 \leq x \leq 11.5

16 ounces in a pound.
24 oz= 1.5 ibs.
Added to 10 ibs.
Now has 11.5 ibs.

R(x)= 11.5 - x

Mara's family is driving to her grandmothers' house. The family travels 239.4 miles between the hours of 9:10 a.M. To 1:40 p.M.
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

53.2 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Mara's family travels 239.4 miles between the hours of 9:10 a.m. to 1:40 p.m.

1:40 p.m. is 13:40.

Thus, they traveled for

13 hours 40 minutes - 9 hours 10 minutes = 4 hours 30 minutes

that is 4\frac{1}{2}=4.5 hours.

Use formula:

D=r\cdot t,

where

D = distance

r = rate

t = time.

In your case,

D = 239.4 miles

t = 4.5 hours

Hence,

239.4=4.5r\\ \\r=\dfrac{239.4}{4.5}=53.2\ mph

Can someone see if these are right?
qwelly [4]
I didn't get the same answers.

In this problem, 25 is your constant (the number of baby hats you already started out with).
26 will be affected by your variable, d, the number of days. With each day that passes, 26 more hats will be knit, so the expression 26d can be used. 

Set h equal to the constant + hats made per day to create an expression that you can use to solve for h:
h = 26d + 25

Now, just plug the numbers in for d to get h:
When d = 2, h = 26d + 25 = 26(2) + 25 = 77
When d = 4, h = 26d + 25 = 26(4) + 25 = 129
When d = 7, h = 26d + 25 = 26(7) + 25 = 207
When d = 9, h = 26d + 25 = 26(9) + 25 = 259

Your answers should be:
77
129
207
259
