Well we know that 10 and 3/4 is equivalent to 10.75. If we divide the meat into 8 equal packages we have to divide 10.75 by 8. Dividing 10.75 by 8 gives us 1.34375 pounds of meat per package. If we take that, and multiply it by our given value of $3.40 per pound, we end up getting $4.57 a package.
Divide the perimeter by 3 to get 8 then use the equation for the area of a triangle (a= BH1/2) and your answer is 32
Segment A is a linear constant. In general a linear constant will be y=k for a horizontal line or x=k for a vertical line.
Answer: Choice A
Proof:
Replace x with 1 and y with 2. This is because (x,y) = (1,2) so x = 1 and y = 2.
Doing both replacements and simplifying leads to...
2*x - y = 0
2*1 - 2 = 0
2 - 2 = 0
0 = 0
That confirms (x,y) = (1,2) is a point on the line.
It confirms (1,2) is a solution to the equation.
