Answer:

6 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

For Ray

He has 16 pages already

Now he is writing 2 pages per day

let x be the number of days

and y be the total number of pages writen

the linear function for the situation is given as

y=2x+16-------------1

For Claudia

He has 2 pages already

Now he is writing 4 pages per day

let x be the number of days

and y be the total number of pages writen

the linear function for the situation is given as

y=4x+2-------------2

Step two:

let us equate equation 1 and 2 to find x

2x+16=4x+2

collect like terms

2x-4x=2-16

-2x=-12

divide both sides by -2

x=12/2

x=6

Therefore it will take 6 days for them to have the same number of pages

What is the function of this graph?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

x=y^2-2

Step-by-step explanation:

This graph, is a parabola that opens to the right.

To answer this question, we just use the vertex form of a sideways parabola- x=a(y-k)^2+h.

In this case, the vertex is (-2, 0), and our value of a is 1, since it opens to the right.

This gives us: x=1(y-0)^2+(-2)

Which simplifies to: x=y^2-2.

Also, the answer to the previous two questions are wrong.

The D value (Domain) is actually [2, ∞)

The R value (Range) is actually "All real numbers" (-∞, ∞)

Let me know if this helps!

A box of pancake mix has `6` cups of mix.
kenny6666 [7]

The fraction of the box of pancake that eliza used is; 1/8.

<h3>What are fractions?</h3>

We are told that the box of pancake mix has 6 cups.

Now, Eliza uses 3/4 of a cup for a recipe.

Since there are 6 cups in the box, it means the fraction of the box of pancake that Eliza used is;

(3/4)/6 = 3/24 = 1/8

In conclusion, the fraction of the box of pancake that eliza used is 1/8.
