Answer: c)She should have multiplied 15 by 3 instead of dividing.
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of quilts Ruby plan to make in one month= 3
which means if Ruby makes more than 3 quilts, the time will be more than 1 month.
To find the number of months to make 15 quilts, she need to divide 15 by 3
Thus, the number of months to make 15 quilts=5
Her answer was 1/5 which was absolutely wrong as if she is making 3 quilt in 1 month then in 1/5 month she would make fewer than 3 quilts.
She divides 3 by 15 instead of 15 by 3, thus but the unit is quilts not months.
Thus the only wrong option is c)She should have multiplied 15 by 3 instead of dividing.
In the future, please post the full problem with all included instructions. After doing a quick internet search, I found your problem listed somewhere else. It mentions two parts (a) and (b)
Part (a) asked for the equation of the line in y = mx+b form
That would be y = -2x+9
This is because each time y goes down by 2, x goes up by 1. We have slope = rise/run = -2/1 = -2. This indicates that the height of the candle decreases by 2 inches per hour. The slope represents the rate of change.
The initial height of the candle is the y intercept b value. So we have m = -2 and b = 9 lead us from y = mx+b to y = -2x+9
----------------------------------------------------------------
Part (b) then asks you to graph the equation. Because this is a linear equation, it produces a straight line. We only need 2 points at minimum to graph any line. Let's plot (0,9) and (1,7) on the same xy grid. These two points are the first two rows of the table. Plot those two points and draw a straight line through them. The graph is below
Using this equation, f(3) = 23.
In order to find the value of f(3), we need to take the f(x) equation and put 3 everywhere we see x. Then we follow the order of operations to solve. So, let's start with the original.
f(x) = 2x^2 + 5sqrt(x - 2)
Now place 3 in for each x.
f(3) = 2(3)^2 + 5sqrt(3 - 2)
Now square the 3.
f(3) = 2(9) + 5 sqrt(3 - 2)
Do the subtraction inside of the parenthesis.
f(3) = 2(9) + 5sqrt(1)
Take the square root
f(3) = 2(9) + 5(1)
Multiply.
f(3) = 18 + 5
And add.
f(3) = 23
500 and 100 because if you see the seven right, seven is the judge and so as the one. Make it 500 and the next number 100. So you'll have en estimate of 600. Ur welcome.
