A: -5/18
B:1 and 16/35
C: 7/30
D: 7/8
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given equation</u>
<u>Answer choices</u>
A. The equation represents a proportional relationship.
- TRUE, it is in the form of y = kx
B. The unit rate of change of y with respect to x is 8.5
- TRUE, y = mx + b, the slope m = 8.5 is the rate of change
C. The slope of the line is 2/17
D. A change of 17 units in x results in a change of 2 units in y.
- False, a change of x = 17 results in 17*8.5 = 144.5 units in y
E. A change of 4 units in x results in a change of 34 units in y.
Answer: 22.5 minutes
Step-by-step explanation: On Monday Georgia practiced for 3/4 of an hour and on Tuesday she practiced for 3/8 of an hour. The difference between those two is 3/8 of an hour and when you take 3/8 of 60 minutes you get 22.5 minutes
Let's eliminate x. To achieve this, mult. the 2nd equation by 2, obtaining
-8x + 2y = 10. Now add this result to the first equation:
8x-2y= -10
-8x + 2y = 10
---------------------
0
The two equations actually represent the same line. Without an x- or a y-value, we cannot solve for the value of the other variable. There are infinitely many solutions.
