Answer:
- The equation 2n = p should be 2p = n.
- The actual cost of the onions is $3.00 per pound.
- Potatoes cost $1.50 per pound.
Step-by-step explanation:
The wording "onions cost twice as much as potatoes" is understood to mean the cost per pound of onions (n) is equal to two times the cost per pound of potatoes (2p). Then the appropriate equation would be ...
2p = n
Then the solution is ...
6p +3(2p) = 18
12p = 18
p = 18/12 = 1.50
n = 2p = 2(1.50) = 3.00
__
The equation should be 2p = n; onions cost $3.00 per pound; potatoes cost $1.50 per pound.
Its 24,000 if the number goes to ten thousand's place..
Answer:
7/40 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve using proportions:
Find the scale factor by dividing the numerators 25 by 1/8.
25 ÷ 1/8 = 200 This is the common ratio
To get from the top left number to the top right number, you divide 25 by 200.
To get from the bottom left number to the bottom right number, you divide 35 by 200.
35 ÷ 200 = 0.175
1/8 of an inch represents 0.175 feet.
To find 0.175 in fraction form, reduce 35/200 to its lowest terms.
35/200 = 7/40
1/8 of an inch represents 7/40 feet.
For every minute you exercise you burn 8.5 calories. It's a linear pattern, so the graph would be a line.
The more minutes you exercise, the more calories you burn, so the graph would rise from left to right.
The number of minutes and the number of calories can't be negative numbers, so the graph would be only in the first quadrant.
The larger the number of minutes, the more calories you would burn.
The answer is D.
