Answer:

y=4-0.5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Alina bought an ice cream cone for $3

the weight of the ice cream is 4 ounce

the rate of melting is 0.5 ounce per minute

let the number of minutes taken for the ice cream to melt be x

and the weight after x minutes be y

Step two:

Hence the expression for the situation after x minutes is

y=4-0.5x

Ivory says that the equation 2x+2=x+1 has no solution because the left-hand side is double the right-hand side. Is Ivory Correct
lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

No, Ivory is incorrect. The equation does have a solution, and the solution is x = -1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We try to solve the equation first.

2x + 2 = x + 1

We want all variables on the left side and all numbers on the right side.

Subtract x from both sides.

x + 2 = 1

Subtract 2 from both sides.

x = -1

Check: Plug in -1 for x on both sides and see if it makes a true statement.

2x + 2 = x + 1

2(-1) + 2 = -1 + 1

-2 + 2 = 0

0 = 0

0 = 0 is a true statement, so the solution x = -1 is the correct solution.

Answer: Ivory is incorrect. The equation does have a solution, and the solution is x = -1.

Karin trains to participate in a race that is a combination of biking and running . Her average speeds during training can be us
Nataly_w [17]
So this is a ratio

for biking, she goes 75 miles per 300 minutes, to solve for the ratio, make as fraction
miles per minute=75/300=1/4, 1 mile every 4 minutes for biking

running is 30 miles per 240 minutes, convert to fracion
30/240=3/24=1/8 1 mile every 8 minutes


so if she will spend 48 minutes biking then
every 4 minutes she goes 1 mile so divide 48 by 4 and get 48/4=12, she will go 12 miles in biking

if she spends 24 minutes runnning and 8 minutes per mile then 24/8=3 3 miles is the course

the course is 12 miles of biking 3 miles of running or 12+3=15 miles

the answer is B

What is the solution to the following equation?
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the letter B. x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

               4x² - 48x = -144

Process

1.- Equal to zero

               4x² - 48x + 144 = 0

2.- Multiply 4 by 144

             4 x 144 = 576

3.- Find the prime factors of 576

                     576   2

                     288   2

                     144    2

                       72    2

                       36   2

                       18    2

                        9    3

                        3     3

                         1

4.- Find two numbers that added gives -48,

     these numbers are -24 and -24

5.- Write the equation using these numbers

              4x² -24x - 24x + 144 = 0

6.- Factor by grouping

             4x(x - 6) - 24(x - 6)

7.- Factor by like terms

             (x - 6)(4x - 24)

8.- Find the solutions

              x - 6 = 0           4x - 24 = 0                            

              x = 6                   4x = 24

                                        x = 24/4

                                        x = 6
