Answer:
B multiplying by
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiple is opposite from divide.
Plus is opposite from subtract.
Function y = -2x + 5:
slope of -2
y intercept at 5
x intercept at 2 1/2
function y = x
slope of 1
y intercept at 0
x intercept at 0
Answer:
no
Step-by-step explanation:
The prices are inconsistent, so there is no unique price that can be set for either an apple or an orange that will give the total prices indicated.

The first relation can be written as ...
$10 = 4A +4O
$10 = 4(A +O) . . . . factor out 4
$2.50 = A +O . . . . divide by 4
The second relation can be written as ...
$12 = 6A +6O
$12 = 6(A +O) . . . . factor out 6
$2 = A +O . . . . . . . divide by 6
These two relations give different prices for 1 apple and 1 orange. There is no price that can be set for either fruit that will give this result.
No unique prices can be assigned.
An interval scale has measurements where the difference between values is meaningful. For example, the year 0 doesn’t imply that time didn’t exist. And similarly, a temperature of zero doesn’t mean that temperature doesn’t exist at that point. Arbitrary zeros (and the inability to calculate ratios because of it) are one reason why the ratio scale — which does have meaningful zeros — is sometimes preferred.
