Answer:
$9.59 for 7 bags of potatoes
Step-by-step explanation:
First you find the unit rate by dividing 6.85 by 5.
The unit rate should equal $1.37.
Then you multiply that and 7 which equals $9.59
Answer:
This is not linear.
Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see the difference between x and y decreases the higher we go.</h2>
Answer:
<h2>
8(4 + n) = 112</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by reading the problem since it maybe is a bit confusing at first.
The product of 8
Now we know that it starts with 8 multiplied by another number. We do not know that number yet, so let's put 8 * () and fill in the parentheses later.
So far, our equation is:
8()
.. And the sum of 4 and a number
So, 4 + n
We can enter that into our equation
8(4+n)
The next line says "..Is 112"
So, the solution to our equation is 112
Our equation becomes:
8(4+n)=112
Given:
A right triangle has legs of 18 inches and 24 inches.
The short leg is increasing by 4 in/sec and the long leg is shrinking at 9 in/sec.
To find:
The rate of change of the hypotenuse.
Solution:
Let x be the shorter leg (Base), y be the larger leg (Perpendicular) and z be the hypotenuse.
We have,
![\dfrac{dx}{dt}=4\text{ in/sec}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdx%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D4%5Ctext%7B%20in%2Fsec%7D)
![\dfrac{dy}{dt}=-9\text{ in/sec}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdy%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D-9%5Ctext%7B%20in%2Fsec%7D)
![x=18](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=x%3D18)
![y=24](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y%3D24)
According to the Pythagoras theorem,
![Hypotenuse^2=Base^2+Perpendicular^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Hypotenuse%5E2%3DBase%5E2%2BPerpendicular%5E2)
...(i)
![z^2=(18)^2+(24)^2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%5E2%3D%2818%29%5E2%2B%2824%29%5E2)
![z^2=324+576](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%5E2%3D324%2B576)
![z^2=900](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%5E2%3D900)
Taking square root on both sides.
![z=\pm \sqrt{900}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%3D%5Cpm%20%5Csqrt%7B900%7D)
Side cannot be negative. So,
![z=30](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%3D30)
Differentiating (i) with respect to time t, we get
![\dfrac{d}{dt}z^2=\dfrac{d}{dt}(x^2+y^2)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdt%7Dz%5E2%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdt%7D%28x%5E2%2By%5E2%29)
![2z\dfrac{dz}{dt}=2x\dfrac{dx}{dt}+2y\dfrac{dy}{dt}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2z%5Cdfrac%7Bdz%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D2x%5Cdfrac%7Bdx%7D%7Bdt%7D%2B2y%5Cdfrac%7Bdy%7D%7Bdt%7D)
![2(30)\dfrac{dz}{dt}=2(18)(4)+2(24)(-9)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2%2830%29%5Cdfrac%7Bdz%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D2%2818%29%284%29%2B2%2824%29%28-9%29)
![60\dfrac{dz}{dt}=144-432](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=60%5Cdfrac%7Bdz%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D144-432)
![60\dfrac{dz}{dt}=-288](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=60%5Cdfrac%7Bdz%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D-288)
Divide both sides by 60.
![\dfrac{dz}{dt}=\dfrac{-288}{60}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdz%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B-288%7D%7B60%7D)
![\dfrac{dz}{dt}=-4.8](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7Bdz%7D%7Bdt%7D%3D-4.8)
Here, negative sign means hypotenuse is decreasing.
Therefore, the hypotenuse is shrinking at 4.8 in/sec.
Hi!
This problem has two parts. First you need to find the slope, so let's do that. The equation for the slope is m = y2-y1/x2-x1
We can now plug the two given points into the equation.
m = 10-4/2-1
m = 6/1
m = 6
Now that we know the slope, and one point we can put this in slope intercept form. Slope intercept form is y=mx + b
So now we can plug in one point and the slope to find b
10 = 6(2) + b
10 = 12 + b
-2 = b
Now that we know both m and b, we can plug only those two into the equation y=mx + b, and we have the equation.
The equation is y = 6x - 2
