Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Glen decides he only wants caramels and candy corn.  

p is the number of caramels Glen purchases.

Let q be the number of candy corns Glen purchases

Since price per pound caramel is 0.95 cost of caramel

=0.95p

Since price per pound candy corns is 0.79 cost of caramel

=0.79q

Total pounds = Glens bag weight = p+q =1.7

and total cost = 0.95p+0.79q = 1.48

Hence we can write the number of pounds of candy corn in two ways

q = 1.7-p and

q=\frac{1.48-0.95p}{0.79}

Use the Pythagorean theorem and the following diagram to help you find the area and perimeter of the following triangle. Please
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

Perimeter = 30

Area = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

(x+8)^2 -x^2 = 12^2

x^2 +16x +64 - x^2 = 144

16x+64=144

16x = 80

x = 5

Double check:

\sqrt{12^2 + 5^2} = (5+8)\\\sqrt{12^2 + 5^2} = 13\\13 = 13

Perimeter:

12+5+13=30

Area(\frac{1}{2}bh):

\frac{1}{2} × 12 × 5 = 30

Which graph or equation represents a nonproportional relationship?
Brut [27]

The graph that does not represents a proportional relationship is: A (see image attached below).

<h3>What is a Proportional Relationship?</h3>

A proportional relationship has a constant, which is uniform and is defined in the equation y = kx, as k. This means a relationship that is proportionate will have an equation in that form.

For a proportional graph, the line must pass through the point of origin which is denoted by the ordered pair, (0, 0).

Therefore, from the options given, the option B represents a proportional relationship because it contains (0, 0), while option C and D takes the form of y = kx.

Therefore, option A does not represent a proportional relationship.
