(x, y) is the ordered pair or the point of the line. The given problem is an example of a linear graph and its ordered pair represents (amount, number of gallons).
(3.75, 1) is one of the ordered pairs of the graph since $3.75 is the amount that you paid in 1 gallon of gas.
Moreover, $12 is the amount that Berto paid for the gas, we will divide it to $3.75 per gallon in order to get the number of gallon that is put in his car.
Solution: $12 / $ 3.75 per gallon= 3.2 gallons.
Therefore, another ordered pair on the graph of the line relating number of gallons of gas is (12, 3.2) since $12 is the amount that you paid for 3.2 gallons of gas.
Answer:
Area of remaining cardboard is 224y^2 cm^2
a + b = 226
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete and correct question is;
A rectangular piece of cardboard is 16y cm long and 23y cm wide. Four square pieces of cardboard whose sides are 6y cm each are cut away from the corners. Find the area of the remaining cardboard. Express your answer in terms of y. If your answer is ay^b, then what is a+b?
Solution;
Mathematically, at any point in time
Area of the cardboard is length * width
Here, area of the total cardboard is 16y * 23y = 368y^2 cm^2
Area of the cuts;
= 4 * (6y)^2 = 4 * 36y^2 = 144y^2
The area of the remaining cardboard will be :
368y^2-144y^2
= 224y^2
Compare this with;
ay^b
a = 224, and b = 2
a + b = 224 + 2 = 226
