If we decrease a dimension on a figure, how is the figure’s area affected?

Answer:

A) area decreases

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Example:</em> we have a 2 by 3 rectangle with area of 2*3 = 6. If we cut the first dimension in half, then we have a 1 by 3 rectangle that has area 1*3 = 3. The area has decreased. To keep the area the same, we would have to increase the other dimension some specific amount.

Patricia is making two sizes of hamburgers: 0.5-pound andd 0.25-pound. How many of each size of hamburger could she make with 3.

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

She could make 5 of each type.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of 0.5 pound hamburgers and y is the number of 0.25 pound hamburgers:

0.5x + 0.25y = 3.75

Divide through by 0.25:

2x + y = 15

Some whole numbers which fit this relation are x = 5 and y = 5.

The table below represents a function. Which of the following equations could be its function rule?

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

$y=2x-2$ is the required equation.

Therefore, the second option is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the slope-intercept form of the line equation of a linear function is given by

$y=mx+b$

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

Taking two points (0, -2) and (1, 0) from the table to determine the slope using the formula

$\mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(0,\:-2\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(1,\:0\right)$

$m=\frac{0-\left(-2\right)}{1-0}$

$m=2$

substituting the point (0, -2) and the slope m=2 in the slope-intercept form to determine the y-intercept i.e. 'b'.

$y=mx+b$

$-2 = 2(0)+b$

$-2=0+b$

$b=-2$

Now, substituting the values of m=2 and b=-2 in the slope-intercept form to determine the equation of a linear function

$y=mx+b$

$y=2x+(-2)$

$y=2x-2$

Thus, $y=2x-2$ is the required equation.

Therefore, the second option is true.
