Y = total amount of money spent
x = cost of one drink

So our expression is:
4x + 12.75

4x stands for 4 drinks times x price of one drink
The 12.75 is a one time fee for the pizza, since Kiyo isn't buying multiple pizzas.

The problem also asks us to find the total price, so we write an equation:

y = 4x + 12.75
We insert what x is which in this case is $3
y = 4(3) + 12.75
Order of Operations tells us to multiply first:
y = 12 + 12.75
Now add your values:
y = 24.75
Therefore, Kiyo spent a total amount of 24.75 at Paola's pizza.

Let's check our problem just in case:

24.75 = 4x + 12.75
Since we now know what y is equal to, we can plug that into our original equation and check just to verify

We should subtract 12. on both sides of the equation because of inverse operations:

24.75 - 12.75  = 12.75 - 12.75 + 4x
We are left with:

12 = 4x
We divide:
\frac{12}{4}  =  \frac{4x}{4}
Our result is:
3 = x
Which checks out because each drink was in fact, $3 dollars as stated in the word problem. Hope that was thorough enough.

Given the domain {-4, 0, 5}, what is the range for the relation 12x 6y = 24? a. {2, 4, 9} b. {-4, 4, 14} c. {12, 4, -6} d. {-12,
xz_007 [3.2K]

The domain of the function 12x + 6y = 24 exists {-4, 0, 5}, then the range of the function exists {12, 4, -6}.

<h3>How to determine the range of a function?</h3>

Given: 12x + 6y = 24

Here x stands for the input and y stands for the output

Replacing y with f(x)

12x + 6f(x) = 24

6f(x) = 24 - 12x

f(x) = (24 - 12x)/6

Domain = {-4, 0, 5}

Put the elements of the domain, one by one, to estimate the range

f(-4) = (24 - 12((-4))/6

= (72)/6 = 12

f(0) = (24 - 12(0)/6

= (24)/6 = 4

f(5) = (24 - 12(5)/6

= (-36)/6 = -6

The range exists {12, 4, -6}

Therefore, the correct answer is option c. {12, 4, -6}.
