$\frac{the \: ratio \: of \: the \: needed \: object} {tota \: ratio} \times total \: number$
The ratio is 5:3
It is asked for oatmeal
Therefore the ratio of the needed object (the oatmeal) is 3
Total ratio is 8 (5+3)
Total number (of cookies) is 40
Therefore,
3/8 ×40 = 15
Therefore the number of oatmeal cookies is 15

4. What is the system of equations that describes the following graph?

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

The system of inequalities is

$y$

$y>0.25x$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the equation of the dashed line with negative slope

The line passes through the points

(0,-2) and (-2,0)

Find the slope

$m=(0+2)/(-2-0)=-1$

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=-1\\b=-2$

substitute

$y=-x-2$

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area below the dashed line

therefore

The equation of the inequality A is

$y$

step 2

Find the equation of the dashed line with positive slope

The line passes through the points

(0,0) and (4,1)

Find the slope

$m=(1-0)/(4-0)=0.25$

Find the equation of the line (direct variation)

$y=kx$

we have

$k=0.25$

substitute

$y=0.25x$

The solution of the inequality is the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

The equation of the inequality B is

$y>0.25x$

therefore

The system of inequalities is

$y$

$y>0.25x$

A total of 800 pre-sale tickets and tickets at the gate were sold to football city championship game. If the number of tickets s

Nitella [24]

The number of presale tickets sold is 271

Solution:

Let "p" be the number of presale tickets sold

Let "g" be the number of tickets sold at gate

Given that, total of 800 Pre-sale tickets and tickets at the gate were sold

Therefore,

Presale tickets + tickets sold at gate = 800

p + g = 800 ------ eqn 1

Given that, number of tickets sold at the gate was thirteen less than twice the number of pre-sale tickets

Therefore,

Number of tickets sold at gate = twice the number of pre-sale tickets - 13

g = 2p - 13 ------- eqn 2

Let us solve eqn 1 and eqn 2

Substitute eqn 2 in eqn 1

p + 2p - 13 = 800

3p -13 = 800

3p = 800 + 13

3p = 813

p = 271

Thus 271 presale tickets were sold

Please help asap!!!! 53 points!

AfilCa [17]

The easiest way is to graph it based upon the slope (m) and y-intercept (b), in the standard slope-intercept form: y = m (x) + b.
The line above intercepts the y-axis at y = -2, which is b. The slope (m) = rise/run = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1 ); so for the point (-4, 2) to (-6, 4) is:
(4-2)/(-6--4) = 2/(-6+4) = 2/-2 = -1.
So one form of the equation would be:
y = -1x - 2
Now the other form of an equation is point-slope: y-k = m (x-h), where the point is at (h, k)
and if we pick -5 for x (bc 5 it listed in 3 of the answers), the y at x=-5 looks like around +3
so we get: y-k = -1 (x--5)...
y-3 = -(x+5)... therefore D) is the correct answer:

Use the definition of the logarithmic function to find x. log4 0.25=x x=?

GREYUIT [131]

The answer is -1.

$log_4(0.25) =log_4( \frac{1}{4})= log_4(4^{-1} ) \\ \\ 
log(x^{a} ) = a*log(x) \\ \\ 
log_4(4^{-1} )= -1 *log_4(4) \\ \\ 
log_y(x) = \frac{log(x)}{log(y)} \\ \\ 
-1 *log_4(4) = -1* \frac{log(4)}{log(4)} = -1$
