For this problem, the formula would be

c= -8s+150.

(c) represents the number of pieces of candy Tyrone ate.

-8, is the number of candy he ate (he ate it, so it doesn't exist anymore.)

(s) is the function you're going to be using as stated in the problem.

In this problem (b), as in the formula y=mx+b, equals 150.

I tried to explain this the best way I could.

c = 150 -8s

Step-by-step explanation:

Each "snack" was 8 pieces of candy, and there were 18 of them (plus 6 candies) to start with. Hence the starting number was ...

... 18×8 +6 = 144 +6 = 150

Each snack reduced that number by 8, so the candies remaining are

c = 150 -8s

Rewrite each expression by combining like terms.

Answer:

5y-2xy

6q-6

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first expression, we can multiply 5 by y to get 5y. Thats all we can simplify it though, because xy is not equal to x or y.

For the second equation, we can easily add the variables to simplify. 6q-6

Hope this helps!

The standard tip in a restaurant is 15% of the bill before tax. Many people in California find the tip by doubling the sales tax
cricket20 [7]
To answer this you could do a couple things. 1. Actually calculate both tips and then subtract them. Here is the math ( assuming it is $60, not 60% that you mean). a. 0.15 x 60 = $9. b. 0.0825 x 2 x 60=$9.90. c. 9.90-9.00= $0.90 difference.

The other strategy would be to find the difference on the percents and then multiply by $60. a. 8.25%x2=16.5%-15%. Difference of 1.5%. b. 0.015 x $60=$0.90.

Exercise
Maurinko [17]
X - nominator
y - denominator

\frac{3x}{y+12}=\frac{3}{4}\\
\frac{x+7}{3y}=\frac{1}{2}\\\\
3(y+12)=12x\\
2(x+7)=3y\\\\
3y+36=12x\\
2x+14=3y\\\\
2x+14+36=12x\\
10x=50\\
x=5\\\\
3y=2\cdot5+14\\
3y=10+14\\
3y=24\\
y=8\\\\
\frac{x}{y}=\boxed{\frac{5}{8}}

Let f(x) = |x| for all real numbers x. Write the formula for the function represented by the described
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

y=(\frac{1}{3}f(x-3))-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see the picture below.

1. Given the function f(x) = |x|, applying a vertical stretch with scale factor \frac{1}{3}, we have the transformed function:

y=\frac{1}{3}f(x)

2. Applying a translation of 3 units to the right, we have:

y=\frac{1}{3}f(x-3)

3. Finally applying a translation down of 1 unit, we have:

y=(\frac{1}{3}f(x-3))-1
