Equivalent means "equal to"

Because we are looking for an equation that is not equivalent to 3y + x = 18, we need to find one that is not equal to 3y + x = 18.

First, lets try y = 6 - 1/3x

3y + x = 18

Divide the whole of both sides by 3

y + 1/3x = 6

Then, subtract 1/3x from each side

y = 6 - 1/3x

So, y = 6 - 1/3x IS equivalent to 3y + x = 18, so it is not the answer.

Next, lets try y - 5 = -1/3 (x - 3)

First, we need to distribute the -1/3 in the right side.

y - 5 = -1/3x + 1

Add 5 to each side

y = -1/3x + 6

Add 1/3x to each side

y + 1/3x = 6

So, y + 1/3x = 6 is NOT equivalent to 3y + x = 18, so it IS an answer.

Lets try the third one: y - 5 = 1/3(x + 3)

We need to use distributive property again on the right side

y - 5 = 1/3x + 1

Add 5 to each side

y = 1/3x + 6 is not equivalent to 3y + x = 18 so it IS and answer

Lets test the last one: 6y + 2x = 36

Divide the whole of each side by 2

3y + x = 18 IS equivalent to 3y + x = 18 so it is NOT an answer

Albert wants to buy two pomegranates and some peaches • The price of one pomegranate is $1.59. • The price of peaches is $1.19 p
viktelen [127]

Answer:

He can buy 5 pounds of peaches.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 pomegranates cost $3.18 so, subtract that from $10.00 and you get $6.82. Multiply the different number of pounds with the cost per pound until you go over $6.82. Then go back a pound and multiply. 5 pounds times $1.19 equals $5.95.

50 POINTS!! Pleasee helppppp!!! A scientific journal recently reported that there are currently 2400 black rhinos in the world t
Harman [31]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we started out with 2,400 black rhinos.

And we know that they are declining at a rate of 10% per year.

In other words, each subsequent year will only have <em>90%</em> of the previous year's rhinos.

Therefore, our function is:

f(x)=2400(.9)^x

We can do some elimination first.

First, the starting point or y-intercept <em>must </em>be 2400 since that's the number of rhinos we started out with.

Therefore, we can eliminate A and D.

From the remaining choices B or C, we can technically also eliminate B. This is because from our function, we know it's exponential decay, and exponential decay is <em>not</em> a straight line.

However, to double check, let's check the population after 10 years using our function. So:

f(10)=2400(.9)^{10}

Use a calculator:

f(10)\approx837

So, after 10 years, the population should be around 840.

B is definitely <em>not</em> 840 (at x=10). However, C is right around it.

Therefore, we can conclude that C is the right answer.

And we're done!
