Answer:

y = 18x + 10

slope = 18

y-intercept = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation given in the problem is linear and can be represented using slope-intercept form of a linear equation: y = mx + b, where 'm' is equal to the slope, 'b' is equal to the y-intercept, 'x' is the number of hours and 'y' is the total number of miles.  

Given that Jasmine has already biked 10 miles, her initial value, or y-intercept would be 10.  Since she is now biking at a rate of 18 miles per hour, her rate of change, or slope, would be 18.  

Using these values for 'm' and 'b': y = 18x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 represents every fraction, where the denominator (bottom part) is twice the numerator (top part).

like 4/8 or 6/12 or 128/256 or ...

what do we need in the denominator to calculate with 15/16 ?

the same : 16.

and what is half of 16 ? 8.

so, we need the 1/2 based on 16th = 8/16.

so, the dog ate 8/16 (1/2) of the original 15/16.

what was left was

15/16 - 8/16 = 7/16 pound

Bakery has bought 250 pounds of muffin dough. They want to make waffles or muffins in half-dozen packs out of it. Half a dozen o
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

250 batches of muffins and 0 waffles.

Step-by-step explanation:

-1

If we denote the number of batches of muffins as "a" and the number of batches of waffles as "b," we are then supposed to maximize the profit function

P = 2a + 1.5b

subject to the following constraints: a>=0, b>=0, a + (3/4)b <= 250, and 3a + 6b <= 1200. The third constraint can be rewritten as 4a + 3b <= 1000.

Use the simplex method on these coefficients, and you should find the maximum profit to be $500 when a = 250 and b = 0. So, make 250 batches of muffins, no waffles.

You use up all the dough, have 450 minutes left, and have $500 profit, the maximum amount.

Write the equation 12 − y = 2x − 5 in slope-intercept form. What are the slope and y-intercept? A. y=2x−17,m=2, y-intercept (0,−
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

12-y=2x-5

+5        +5  ( add 5 to both sides)

17-y=2x

-17    -17  (Subtract 17 to get y by itself)

-y=2x-17

divide by -1 because y cant be negative

y=-2x+17

m=-2 and y-intercept= 17

I hope thats right :)
