Part A

We have x = 4 and y = 3 paired up together.

This says that 4 pounds of potatoes cost $3

The price per pound (aka unit price) is y/x = 3/4 = 0.75 dollars = 75 cents.

Answer: 75 cents per pound

========================================

Part B

The ordered pair (8,6) means x = 8 and y = 6 pair up together.

So in this case, 8 pounds of potatoes cost $6.

notice how y/x = 6/8 = 3/4 = 0.75 dollars = 75 cents here as well. So we get the same unit cost.

If f(x)= x*2 +3 and g(x) = 4x + 1, what is f(g(2))?
enot [183]

Answer:

f(g(2))=84

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

Given data

f(x)= x*2 +3

g(x) = 4x + 1

Step two

Let us find g(2) first then we proceed to find f(g(2))

g(2)=4(2) +1

g(2)=8+1

g(2)=9

Since g(2)=9

f(g(2))=x*2 +3

f(g(2))=9*2 +3

f(g(2))=81+3

f(g(2))=84

When you mix two colors of paint in equivalent ratios, the resulting color is
vredina [299]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table,

To prepare a mixture of a paint, two paints of different shades have been added in the same ratio,

Since, 2 cups of blue paint are mixed with 10 cups of yellow paint

Therefore, ratio in which these shades have been added = \frac{\text{Pink}}{\text{Blue}}

                                                                                                = \frac{10}{2}

                                                                                                = \frac{5}{1}

                                                                                                = 5 : 1

For 1 cup of blue paint number of cups of yellow paint required,

\frac{x}{1}=\frac{5}{1}

x = 5 cups

For 3 cup of blue paint number of cups of yellow paint required,

\frac{x}{3}=\frac{5}{1}

x = 15 cups

Cups of blue paint                Cups of yellow paint

            2                                             10

            1                                               5

            3                                              15
