Alright, we can turn the word problem at the beginning into an equation.
Let's represent oregano with "o" and peppercorns as "p".
o=p+17
Also, we know that the two added together are 253 pounds.
o+p=253
Since we know that o=p+17, let's substitute it into the second equation.
(p+17)+p=253
2p+17=253
-17 -17
2p=236
p=118
So, we have 118 pounds of peppercorns. (Although it's irrelevant to the second half of the equation, we also know we have 135 pounds of oregano)
Now, let's convert pounds to ounces.
1 pound = 16 ounces.
So, multiply 118 by 16....
118*16=1888
So, you can make 1888 one-ounce bags of peppercorns.
Answer:
C :3
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever our simplification of a linear equation ends in a true statement, in this case 6=6, then our linear equation has infinitely many solutions.
Therefore, our answer is C.
even if we don’t know what x is we’ll still get an infinite amount of solutions
HOPE THIS HELPED :DDDD
I believe it is B as well, it’s definitely not linear and it is a function from my understanding.
Answer:
Ryan takes 6n+36m -42 seconds to reach the nth flag for the mth time.
Step-by-step explanation:
It takes Ryan to run from 1st to 6th flag in 30 seconds, so it takes him
30 * 6/3 = 36 seconds to make one complete round.
or it takes 6 seconds to run from one flat to the next.
To reach the nth flag (n=1,2,3,4,5, or 6)
Ryan takes 6(n-1) seconds.
To reach it the mth times, he needs to add 36(m-1) seconds.
So time it takes Ryan to reach the nth flag for the mth time takes
6(n-1) + 36(m-1)
= 6n - 6 + 36m - 36
= 6n+36m -42 seconds
