Answer:
<em>Part A: </em>
<em>c = 1.15p</em>
<em>c(2) = $2.30</em>
<em>Part B: </em>
<em>c = 0.90p</em>
Part B:
Step-by-step explanation:

Candy's Sweets Company charges $1.15 per pound to ship candy. This represents a proportional relationship between the pounds of candy and the cost.
Part A: If each pound costs $1.15, then p pounds cost $1.15p. Then the equation of the cost c is:
c = 1.15p
The cost of shipping p=2 pounds of candy is:
c = 1.15*2 = 2.30
c = $2.30
Part B: When the company reduces the cost by $0.25 per pound, the new unit cost is $1.15 - $0.25 = $0.90 per pound.
The new equation to determine the total cost for p pounds of candy is:
c = 0.90p
so, they already used 4,885.78 this month, but whatever all five family members can use total for a month is 7,250.50, so since they already used 4,885.78, they have left 7,250.50 - 4,885.78 = 2364.72.
Try to imagine this word problem, there is a wall and a ladder leaning against it, the space from the bottom of the ladder is labeled 6 and the length of the height the ladder reaches on the wall is 8. Imagine this as a right triangle now, where the length of the ladder is the hypotenuse and the length of the legs of the triangle is 6 and 8. Because we know this, we can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2
We then plug in the values and you get 6^2+8^2=c^2
When you simplify, you get 36+64=c^2 which is c^2=100
When you solve for c, you get c=10 which would be the length of the ladder :)
Answer:
IDK if you still need this but it's A
Step-by-step explanation:
I just took the quiz and got it right :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
So we can just set up a proportion
14.5/2=x/3
we can cross multiply
so that means
2x=43.5
x=21.75
