Answer:

  165 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write an equation for the total weight (y) as a function of the number of cups of flour (x). The y-intercept of that equation will be the weight of the bowl.

The two-point form of the equation of a line is ...

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

The two points we are given are (2, 405) and (5, 765).

  y = (765 -405)/(5 -2)(x -2) +405

  y = 360/3(x -2) +405 . . . . simplify a bit

  y = 120x -240 +405 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  y = 120x +165 . . . . . . . . . . combine terms

The bowl by itself weighs 165 grams.

__

Each cup of flour weighs 120 grams.

Answer:

im think the bowl weighs 49.5 grams by itself

Step-by-step explanation:

405/2= 202.5

765/5=153

202.5-153=49.5

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

By definition the median of the triangle bisects the  base of the isosceles triangle.

We need to prove that the 2 triangles formed by the median are congruent.

If the 2 triangles are ABD  and ACD  where BD is the median and < ABC is the angle from which BD is drawn.

BD = BD  ( the common side)

AD = DC ( because BD is the median).

AB =  AC ( because ABC is  an isosceles triangle).

So Triangles ABD and ACD are congruent by SSS.

Therefore  m < ABD = m <  CBD,  so BD is the bisector of < ABC.

To prove BD is also the altitude:

Triangles ABD and CBD are congruent as we have just proven. Therefore the

of measure of the base angle ABD = m < CBD . Also they are adjacent angles ( on the same line) so they add up to 180.

Therefore angles ABD and CBD are both  right angles and BD is the altitude of triangle ABC.

Becca and Kimberly are running at a constant speed in a marathon. Becca runs at 4.5 miles per hour. Kimberly’s progress is shown
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Part A: Kimberly

Part B:

Becca = 22.5 miles, Kimberly = 25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

Given that Becca runs at a constant speed of 4.5 miles per hour, use the table to find the constant speed that Kimberly runs, and compare who runs faster.

Let x = time

y = distance

k = speed = y/x

Equation for each person can be written as: y = kx

Therefore:

✔️Equation for Becca if k = 4.5

y = 4.5x

✔️Find k (speed) of Kimberly using (2, 10):

Speed (k) = y/x

k = 10/2

k = 5 miles per hour

Equation for Kimberly would be:

y = 5x

Comparing their speed, Kimberly runs faster because she covers more miles per hour than Becca does.

Part B:

For Becca, substitute x = 5 into Becca's equation, y = 4.5x

Thus:

y = 4.5*5 = 22.5 miles

For Kimberly, substitute x = 5 into Kimberly's equation, y = 5x

Thus:

y = 5*5 = 25 miles
