Let the no. of pencils be x,

= 5/3 = 15/x

Do cross multiplication

= 5x = 15 × 3

= x = 45/5

= x = 9

No of pencils = 9

Answer:

9 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the ratio is 5:3 and its pens to pencils. So, every 5 pens have 3 pencils. Now Jose has 15 pens, so his pen supply triples. therefore his pencil supply must also triple. So 3x3=9.

Answer:

A linear function is written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

An exponential equation is written as:

y = A*(r)^x

Where A is the initial quantity and r is the rate of growth.

If a and A are both positives, the similar characteristic of both types of functions is that as x increases, then the value of y will also increase. Then both functions are increasing functions.

They are different in how they increase, while a linear function increases at a constant rate, an exponential function increases slow at the beginning and really fast as x increases, as you can see in the image below where we compare the two types of functions, the green one is the linear function, and the blue one is the exponential function.

____ [38]

a) Write an expression to describe the journey of the yellow submarine.

-> ((0 - 40) + 30) - 25

[] Sea level = 0

[] The descend 40 meters = -40

[] After examining the sea, they rose 30 meters = + 30

[] They dove 25 meters to look at an octopus = -25

b) At what depth did they stop to look at the octopus?

-> -35 meters

[] The started at 0 (0), descended 40 (-40), rose 30 (-10), and then sove 25 (-35) to see the octopus

[] Another way to think of this is to simplify our previous expression completely

Have a nice day!
