Answer:

0.47

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you mean what is the cost per ounce...

To find this first convert lb to oz by multiplying it by 16 (there are 16 oz in an lb) and adding it to five to get the total amount of ounces (1 x 16 + 5 = 21). Now to find the cost per ounce divide $9.85 by 21 ($9.85 / 21 = $0.46904762), and round it to 0.47 (to get to the nearest cent), or you could even round up to 0.5.

Work out m and c for the line: 3 y + 6 x = − 3

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

<u>m</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>and</u><u> </u><u>c</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>-</u><u>1</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

• Let's first phrase out the general equation of a line

${ \rm{y = mx + c}}$

m is the slope
c is the y-intercept

[ remember that a general line equation must be in slope - intercept form as shown above ]

• from our question, we are given the equation;

${ \rm{3y + 6x = - 3}}$

• let's make y the subject in order to make the equation in slope - intercept format.

→ <em>r</em><em>e</em><em>m</em><em>e</em><em>m</em><em>b</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em> </em><em>t</em><em>o</em><em> </em><em>a</em><em>p</em><em>p</em><em>l</em><em>y</em><em> </em><em>"</em><em>s</em><em>u</em><em>b</em><em>j</em><em>e</em><em>c</em><em>t</em><em> </em><em>m</em><em>a</em><em>k</em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>g</em><em> </em><em>k</em><em>n</em><em>o</em><em>w</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em>d</em><em>g</em><em>e</em><em>"</em>

${ \rm{3y = - 3 - 6x}} \\ \\ { \rm{3y = - 6x - 3}} \\ \\ { \rm{ \frac{3y}{3} = \frac{ - 6x}{3} - \frac{3}{3} }} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \rm{y = - 2x - 1}}}$

• The above boxed equation is now a general equation. Let's extract out slope, m and y-intercept, c

${ \rm{m \: \dashrightarrow \: - 2}} \\ \\ { \rm{c \: \dashrightarrow \: - 1}}$

Last year, there were 234 pies baked for the bake sale. This year, there were b pies baked. Using b , write an expression for th

Lisa [10]

Answer:

234+b

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year 234 pies were baked

This year b pies were baked

total pies = last year plus this year

total pies = 234+b

The expression does not have an equals sign so the expression is 234+b
