Find the rate of change, (y2-y1)/(x2-x1), from the data given...
(2.16-1.26)/(12-7)=0.18
(1.26-0.72)/(7-4)=0.18
Since the rate is constant, this is a linear equation of the form y=mx+b. Furthermore, since 0 pencils cost 0, b=0, so the cost of the pencils is simply the number of pencils times 18 cents...
c(p)=0.18p (cost with respect to pencils is 0.18 times the number of pencils)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x + 3y = -1 --------------(i)
3x - 9y = 33 -------------(ii)
multiply equation (i) by 3
(i)* 3 12x + 9y = -3
(ii) <u> 3x - 9y = 33</u>
add, 15x = 30
x = 30/15
x = 2
Put x =2 in Equation (i)
4*2 + 3y = -1
8 +3y = -1
3y = -1-8
3y = -9
y = -9/3
y= -3
there is not enough info given to tell how long it would take
x=number of oranges.
y=number of bananas.
$5
we can suggest this system of equations:
x+y=12
0.5x+0.25y=5
We can solve this system of equations by substitution method.
x=12-y
0.5(12-y)+0.25y=5
6-0.5y+0.25y=5
-0.25y=5-6
-0.25y=-1
y=-1 /- 0.25=4
x=12-y
x=12-4=8
Answer:
<em>Tanya bought 8 oranges and 4 bananas.</em>
Answer:
-0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the average formula:
Sum of all numbers/Number of items
6 + (-7) / 2
= -1/2
So, the number in the middle of -7 and 6 is -0.5
