Answer:

This equation is equivalent to $20x-22$

$\mathrm{Expand}\:3\left(2x-5\right):\quad 6x-15\\=14x-7+6x-15\\\mathrm{Simplify}\:14x-7+6x-15:\quad 20x-22\\=20x-22$

Riley and Rhoda plan to buy 2 bags of dog of food and a dog collar (x). Each bag of dog food costs $7 and the dog collar costs $

Sergio [31]

Let:

T = Total money they have

Dc = Dog collar

x = Number of bags of food

$\begin{gathered} 2x+Dc\le T \\ 2x+4.5\le30 \end{gathered}$

Let's solve the inequality:

$\begin{gathered} 2x+4.5\le30 \\ \text{subtract 4.5 from both sides:} \\ 2x+4.5-4.5\le30-4.5 \\ 2x\le25.5 \\ x\le\frac{25.5}{2} \\ x=12.75\approx12 \end{gathered}$

This means that they can buy 12 bags of food at most.

Since they plan to buy 2 bags of food:

$\begin{gathered} 2(7)+4.5\le30 \\ 14+4.5\le30 \\ 18.5\le30 \end{gathered}$

This means they can do it and have $ 11.5 to spare

I don’t understand the question above... pls give step by step explanation...

Answer:

This is a linear function because the power of x is 1. Because of the +40 it's not a proportional relationship (they are in the form y = kx but the given equation is not) so the answer is the second option.

The cost of 4 kilograms of cheese is 50 dollars. which equation shows this in function notation?

Xelga [282]

$50 corresponds to 4 kg That means there must be a number that when you multiply by 4 you get 50. Let that number be k. k is the price of cheese per kg. 1 kg: y = k * 1 2 kg: y = k * 2
