Answer:

p=0.60w

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

p ----> the price of a watermelon in dollars

w ---> the weight of a watermelon in pounds

In this problem we have a proportional relationship

Remember that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form  or  

In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line and the line passes through the origin

In this problem

p=kw

The value of the constant of proportionality k is the same that the unit rate

Find out the unit rate

Divide the total cost by the total weight

k=4.38/7.3=0.60per lb

substitute in the equation

p=0.60w

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve the system of equations -2x+y=5 x-3y=-30
EastWind [94]
-2x+y=5
x-3y=-30 so you can multiply the bottom equation by 2 you'll get 2x-6y=-60

-2x+y=5
2x-6y=-60 And subtract the equations. You'll get -5y=-55 y=11. Plug it in to one of the original equations. -2x+(11)=5 
-2x=-6 so x=3 

y=11 and x=3

Find all solutions to the equation.<br><br> cos2x + 2 cos x + 1 = 0
yanalaym [24]
For cos(2x) * (2cos(x) + 1) = 0, use the double angle identity for cos(2x), which is cos^2 x - sin^2 x = cos^2 x - (1-cos^2) = 2cos^2 x - 1.
So we have (2cos^2 x - 1)(2cos x + 1) = 0. So 2cos^2 x -1 = 0 or x = 0 and 2pi.
For 2sec^2 x + tan^2 x - 3 = 0, use the identity sec^2 x = tan^2 x + 1, so we have
2(tan^2 x + 1) + tan^2 x - 3 = 0 or
<span>2tan^2 x + tan^2 x - 1 = 0 or
</span>3 tan^2 x = 1.

So x = pi/2, pi/2 + pi = 3pi/2.
