Answer:

the price per candy is $0.16

and she has $16.00 in her pocket.

Step-by-step explanation:

x = the money in her pocket.

y = the price per candy

x + 3.2 = 120×y

x - 2.4 = 85×y

y = (x - 2.4)/85

=>

x + 3.2 = 120×(x - 2.4)/85 = (24x - 57.6)/17

=>

(17x + 17×3.2)/17 = (24x - 57.6)/17

17x + 54.4 = 24x - 57.6

54.4 = 7x - 57.6

112 = 7x

x = 16

y = (16 - 2.4)/85 = 13.6/85 = 0.16

Which graph represents the linear function y = x 3/4– 4?
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

y=\frac{3}{4}x-4

This is a linear equation (the graph is a line)

To identify the graph find out the intercepts

<u><em>Find out the y-intercept</em></u>

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

For x=0

y=\frac{3}{4}(0)-4=-4

The y-intercept is the point (0,-4)

<u><em>Find out the x-intercept</em></u>

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

0=\frac{3}{4}x-4

\frac{3}{4}x=4

x=16/3=5.33

The x-intercept is the point (5.33,0)

therefore

The graph in the attached figure
