Answer:

3/20

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3/4 of a gallon, and we want to divide it equally among 5 people. So, we can divide 3/4 by 5

3/4 /5

Divide by 5, or multiply by the reciprocal of 5. To find the reciprocal, flip the numerator and denominator

<u>Reciprocal: </u>5/1 ---flip---> 1/5

3/4 * 1/5

Multiply across the numerator and denominator

3/20

Each person gets 3/20 of a gallon

Sheila bought several bags of balloons and boxes of candles. The candles cost $15 per bix, and the balloons cowt $8 per bag. She
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

balloons= 9

candles= 8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of balloons be x

and candles be y

So

15x+8y=192----------1

x+y=17--------------2

from 2, x= 17-y

put x= 17-y in 1

15( 17-y)+8y=192

255-15y+8y=192

solve for y

-7y=192-255

-7y=-63

x=63/7

x=9

put x= 9 in 1

9+y=17

y= 17-9

y=8.

ALGEBRA 1, SEMESTER 2
SIZIF [17.4K]

So firstly, we have to find f(x) when x = 8 and x = 0. Plug the two numbers into the x variable of the function to solve for their f(x):

f(0)=\frac{2*0+3}{3*0-3}\\ f(0)=\frac{0+3}{0-3}\\ f(0)=\frac{3}{-3}\\ f(0)=-1\\ \\ f(8)=\frac{2*8+3}{3*8-3}\\ f(8)=\frac{16+3}{24-3}\\ f(8)=\frac{19}{21}

Now that we have their y's, we can use the slope, aka average rate of change, formula, which is \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} . Using what we have, we can solve it as such:

\frac{\frac{19}{21}-(-1)}{8-0}=\frac{\frac{40}{21}}{8}=\frac{40}{21*8}=\frac{40}{168}=\frac{5}{21}

In short, the average rate of change from x = 0 to x = 8 is 5/21.
