Answer:

<h2>D) y = 2x – 8</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, the initial condition is -8, because the start of the day, the morning, was -8 °F. This characteristic is really important, initial condition are expressed as y-interception, which is the constant term of a linear function.

So, in this case, the viable answers are B or D, it depends on the ratio of change.

The problem states that as the day went on, the temperature ROSE 2 degrees each hour, that expressed an increasing behaviour of 2. Mathematically, that means the independent variable must be negative.

Therefore, the right answer is D., because it has a positive rate of change, and it has -8 as y-interception or initial condition.

you start with -8 then rise 2 per hour, so this would be +2x.

D. y = 2x - 8

A box contains 4 black shirts, 8 blue shirts, 4 black pants, and 10 blue pants. Determine the probability of randomly selecting
Elenna [48]
So there is 26 shirts in total because 4+8+4+10=26 Then you need to take 26-4=22. You do this because there is 26 total clothing and only 4 of them aren't either a blue piece of clothing or pants that means you have 22 pieces of clothing that are blue or pants. So your odds of picking a blue piece of clothing or pants is 22/26. 

Hope this Helps!!

gavmur [86]

Answer:

Drinks = 6.75

Popcorn= 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the popcorn = P

Let the drink = D

2*P + 3*D = 22.25         multiply this equation by 6

12*P + 4D = 39.00

<u>12P + 18D = 133.5</u>          Subtract these two equations

- 14D = - 94.50               Divide by -14

-14D/-14 = -94.5/-14        Do the division

D = 6.75

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

12P  +  4D = 39            Substitute for D

12P + 4*6.75 = 39        Combine

12P + 27 = 39               Subtract 27 from both sides

12P + 27-27=39-27      Collect like terms

12P = 12                        Divide by 12

12P/12 = 12/12

P = 1                               Answer
