There'll be three boxes of cookie dough on each row/group.
This is a linear function, of the kind y = mx + b
where x is the number of visit, b is the weight when x = 0, and m is the predicted change of weight for every visit.
m = - 4 ounces / visit, which must be converted to pounds (the negative sign indicates that the change is a decrease)
1 lb = 16 ounces = 4 ounces = 0.25 lb
Then m = - 0.25 lb / visit.
Now, for x = 1, y = 126 => 126 = - 0.25(1) + b => b = 126 + 0.25 = 126.25
Then the function is y = 126.25 - 0.25x
Now round to the nearest tenth:
y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer: y = 126.3 - 0.3x
Answer:
Four (4) pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Because we required two (2) pounds to stretch the spring eight (8) inches, we need double the force to stretch it sixteen (16) inches. Sixteen is just double the original amount, meaning we need four (4) pounds to stretch the spring sixteen inches.
Hope this helps!
63 + 36...there is a common factor of 9
9(7 + 4) <== this is equivalent
63 + 36...there is a common factor of 3
3(21 + 12)...but this is not an answer choice...but it is equivalent
