Abigail: x

Jake: 3/4x

---

Make their expressions add up to 140 in an equation.

(x) + (3/4x) = 140

Combine like terms.

1 3/4x = 140

Divide both sides by 1 3/4.

x = 80

Plug 80 for x into Jake and Abigail's expressions.

Jake: 3/4(80) = 60

Abigail: (80) = 80

---

Jake earned $60 and Abigail earned $80.

Let's represent Jake with the variable 'j' and Abigail with the variable 'a':

j = 3a/4

j + a = 140

j = -a + 140

3a/4 = -a + 140

3a = -4a + 560

7a = 560

a = 80

Abigail earned $80 and Jake earned $60

Four students were discussing how to find the unit rate for a proportional relationship. Which method is valid?
vovangra [49]

Answer:

The method that is valid in finding the unit rate for a proportional relationship is by:

Look at the graph of the relationship. Count the number of units up and the number of units to the right one must move to arrive at the next point on the graph. Write these two numbers as a fraction. The unit rate is the slope, which is the rise over run.

Which of the following is most likely the next step in the series
natima [27]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

In the pattern, there are some similarities with the first three circles.

1. The number is on the blue half.

2. The halves switch spots, red-blue, blue-red, red-blue.

So, the next one should have the number on the blue half and the next pattern should be red-blue, blue-red, red-blue, and blue-red.

Which one has both the number on the blue half and the pattern blue-red?

C

Hoped this helped.
