Answer:

3.5 more times sugar in B

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to see that the fact that Beverage B is 0.21 sugar can be translated to percentages, just by multiplying and dividing by 100 to get it easier to see:

0.21 * 100 /100 =  21/100 = 21% percent

This means that for every 100 units, 21 are sugar.

Now we can compare percentages directly, as both have the same volume because are sold in identical cans. We need to get how many times is 21 greater than 6. The only thing we need to do is the ratio between them:

21/6= 3.5

This implies that 21 is 3.5 greater than 6, you can verify it by multiplying 6 by 3.5 and getting 21.

So, B has 3.5 times more sugar than A.

Sierra is going on a field trip that costs $48. The cost includes $20 for transportation and two tickets that each cost the same
True [87]
We know that there are two tickets (which we'll represent with x) and a fee for transporation (which is $20)

So we can set up the equation 20+2x=48

We want to isolate x so we'll subtract 20 from each side, which gives us the equation
2x=28

Then divide each side by 2
Giving us the final answer of

x=14

So each ticket costs $14

What are the distributive property 14k+35
malfutka [58]
I’m not too sure of what you are asking. But if you want an equivalent expression, it would be

7(2k+5)

Since 7 is the greatest common factor of both 14 and 35. 14/7=2. 35/7=5

What is the slope of the line?<br> y +3 = -4(x+7)
Svetach [21]

Answer:

  -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare this to the form ...

  y -y1 = m(x -x1)

which is the point-slope form of the equation for a line. Matching the parts of the equation, you see that ...

  • y1 = -3
  • m = -4
  • x1 = -7

m represents the slope of the line. The slope is -4.
