If this were to be graphed, the independent variable would be the price of the ticket for the rides. The dependent variable would be the total cost.
The fair admission is not a variable because it is a constant price for every single person who goes into the fair.
The problem asks to use y to represent the total cost and x to represent the number of ride tickets. In order to fully write out the equation, we have to figure out what the fair admission costs.
43.75 = 1.25(25) + b
*b represents the fair admission
Multiply 1.25 by 25
43.75 = 31.25 + b
Subtract 31.25 to find what b costs.
12.50 = b
The fair admission costs $12.50.
Solution: y = 1.25x + 12.50
Answer:
HL (Hypotenuse Leg)
Step-by-step explanation:
You have BC=CD (Because of reflexive property), AC=DC, and measure of BAC is equal to the measure of BDC, which is 90 degrees. Since these triangles are right and they have a hypotenuse and a leg congruent, you can say that they are congruent because of HL.
Answer:
x(6 + 15y)
Step-by-step explanation:
In this instance, you can divide by a factor of x.
6x/x = 6
15xy/x = 15y
Therefore, we are left with 6 + 15y.
Question #25:
One way to solve this is by multiplying the number of packages per serving by the number of guests.
1/4 * 16 = 4 packages to serve 16 guests. This means he doesn't have enough.
A second way to solve this is by diving the number of packages by the number of packages it takes to make on serving.
3 1/2 ÷ 1/4 = 14 guests he can serve. This means he doesn't have enough.
Question #26:
First, find common denominators.
2/3 = 8/12
1/4 = 3/12
Second, subtract.
8/12 - 3/12 = 5/12
Therefore, the tank is 5/12 full at the end of the trip.
Question #27:
1/2 is cut off then 1/3 is cut off. This means 3/6 was cut off to bundle newspapers, then 1/6 was cut off to make parcel. In all, 4/6 was cut off the original string. Afterwards, 2/6 was left over. So, just multiply; 2 * 3 = 6.
Therefore, the original string was as a total of 6 meters.
Best of Luck!
