Answer: x=2 and y=3
I don't see the expression below.
Since the 40% discount applies to the number of cookies sold above 2 dozen, or 24, then if the number of cookies is c, then c - 24 is the number of cookies above 2 dozen. Answer is B.
There are 20 students in sixth grade
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find the number of sixth-graders in the school.
Total number of students = 90
Number of sixth-graders = 2/9 of total students
⇒ Number of 6th graders = 2/9 × 90 = 20 students
Part A: This data does represent a function because no value of x is repeated.
Part B: If x = 6 for the relation f(x) = 7x - 15, then f(x) will equal 27. The function f(x) = 7x - 15 will have the greater value
Part C: If f(x) is equal to 6 then x will equal 3
