Answer:

To understand unit rates, always keep the number 1 in mind.

Let’s say we’re looking at a table with the input of 2 and output of 6. The first step is to find what the multiplier is.
If we divide 6 and 2, we get 3. Another way to think about it is “what multiplied by 2 gets 6?” So we now know our multiplier is 3.

However, it is not the unit rate. The unit rate is the base number (1) and the multiplier.

To get the the base number and the multiplier, we now have to look for a number that can be divided by both the input and output. In this case, the number 2.

2 divided by 2 is 1. 6 divided by 2 is 3. We now have the numbers 1 and 3. These are the base numbers.

When thinking of unit rate, we know that a unit is one part of ____, so one unit plus another unit goes on and on.

Hope this helps!

Mr Wallace took 600mg of medicine. This was 75% of the full dose. What was the full dose?
Aleonysh [2.5K]
Set up a proportion.

75% = 0.75

600/0.75 = x/1

Cross multiply:

0.75x = 600

Divide 0.75 to both sides:

x = 800

So the full does is 800mg.

If f(x)=7x-3 and g(x)=x^2-4x, find (f+g)(x).
mote1985 [20]
(f+g)(x) is equivalent to f(x) + g(x)

So that would be (7x-3) + (x²-4x) = x² + 7x - 4x - 3 = x² + 3x - 3

Hope this helps.

Solve for x.
kati45 [8]

Answer:

72.5

Step-by-step explanation:

5x5+2x+10=180

1.PEMDAS

2.5x5=25

3.25+10=35

4.Try to get everything away from X so move 35 to other side by subtracting since its a positive number and if negative number (ex. -35) u add, 180-35=145

5. and divide 145 by 2 than finally x is alone which comes out to x=72.5

Which methods could you use to calculate the y-coordinate of the midpoint of a vertical line segment with endpoints at (0, 0) an
professor190 [17]
The midpoint of a line segment is the point that is located exactly in the middle of two points. It is the average of both points, which is the average of the two coordinates x, and of the two coordinates y.
 We have then:
 M = (((x1 + x2) / 2), ((y1 + y2) / 2))
 Substituting values:
 M = (((0 + 0) / 2), ((0 + 15) / 2))
 M = (0, 7.5)
 Answer:
 
The y-coordinate of the midpoint of a vertical line segment with endpoints at (0, 0) and (0, 15) is:
 
y = 7.5
