Answer: 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mr. Doss pulled out 16 negative counters and 27 positive counters.

In integers we use negative sign "-" to represent the negative quantities.

So, we can represent 16 negative counters as -16.

Now, combined value of the counters = (-16) + 27

= 27-16

= 11

Hence, the combined value of the counters is 11.

Part A: Find a rational number that is between 7.7 and 7.9. Explain why it is rational. (2 points)
8_murik_8 [283]
A rational number is any number that can be written as the ratio between two other numbers i.e. in the form \frac{a}{b}

Part A:
An easy choice that makes sense is 7.8, right in the middle. To prove that it's rational we need to write it as a ratio. In this case we have 7.8=\frac{78}{10}

Part B:
We need a number that can't be written as a ratio (because it neither terminates nor repeats). Some common ones are \sqrt{2}, e, \phi and \pi so it makes sense to try and use those to build our number. In this case \frac{11\sqrt{2}}{5}\approx7.78 works nicely.

2.4 + 5.4q – 4.5q + 3.6<br><br> a.6+1.1q<br> b.9.9q+6<br> c.0.9q+6<br> d.9.9q-6
Yuri [45]
You have to add the same kind of terms, in this case the ones that have a variable (5.4q and -4.5q) and the ones that don't (2.4 and 3.6), like this:

(5.4q - 4.5q) + (2.4 + 3.6) = 0.9q + 6

The answer is c. 0.9 +6

The graph shows the amount of money paid when purchasing bags of peanuts at the zoo: What is the constant of proportionality? (4
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The constant of proportionality is equal to 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

Let

y ----> the total cost in dollars

x ----> the number of bags of peanuts

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form k=\frac{y}{x} or y=kx

To find out the constant of proportionality, we need to take one point from the graph

take the point (1,4)

Find the value of k

k=\frac{y}{x}

substitute the value of x and the value of y

k=\frac{4}{1}=\$4\ per bag
