Answer:

1/6 gallon of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of hikers = 3

Quantity of water shared = 1/2 gallon of water

If the water was shared equally among the hikers, then,

Amount of water each hiker drank = Quantity of water shared ÷ Number of hikers

= 1/2 ÷ 3

Multiply 1/6 by the reciprocal of 3

The reciprocal of 3 = 1/3

1/2 ÷ 3

= 1/2 × 1/3

= (1 * 1) / (2 * 3)

= 1/6

Amount of water each hiker drank = 1/6 gallon of water

Which ordered pair is generated from the equation shown below? y = 2x + 4 A. (1, 6) B. (1, 2) C. (3, 6) D. (8, 16)
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The ordered pair generated from the equation is (1, 6).

Step-by-step explanation:

An ordered pair is a pair of numbers, representing two variables, in a specific order. For instance, (<em>x</em>, <em>y</em>) = (1, 2) here <em>x</em> = 1 and <em>y</em> = 2.

The equation provided is:

y=2x+4

Check for all the options:

  • A (1, 6): y=2x+4\Rightarrow\ 6=(2\times 1) +4\Rightarrow\ 6=6
  • B (1, 2): y=2x+4\Rightarrow\ 2=(2\times 1) +4\Rightarrow\ 2\neq 6
  • C (3, 6): y=2x+4\Rightarrow\ 6=(2\times 3) +4\Rightarrow\ 6\neq10
  • D (8, 16): y=2x+4\Rightarrow\ 16=(2\times 8) +4\Rightarrow\ 16\neq20

Thus, the ordered pair generated from the equation is (1, 6).

What is the solution to the system of equations?
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There is an error in the question. The table does not show two linear functions.  y₁ is a linear function, but   y₂ is not a straight line. It makes a bend at (-6,1).

Line 1 goes through (-12,-3) and (0,5).

slope  = (5-(-3))/(0-(-12)) = 2/3

y-intercept = 5

y₁ = (2/3)x + 5

Line 2 goes through (-12,-2) and (-6,1).

slope = (1-(-2))/(-6-(-12)) = 1/2

y₂ = (1/2)x + 4

(2/3)x + 5 = (1/2)x + 4

x = -6

y = (2/3)x + 5 = 1

Solution: (-6,1)
