$75/100 tablets = $ 0.75 per one tablet

$63.75/85 capsules = $ 0.75 per one capsule

$ 70.00/40 caplets = $ 1.75 per one caplet.

The most expensive form is C. Caplet form as it costs $ 1.75 for one caplet.

Answer : C.  Caplet form is the most expensive.

Tablet form comes in 50 mg tablets and cost $75.00 for a bottle of 100 tablets.

50 mg of 100 tablets so 50 * 100 = 5000mg

5000mg cost = $75.00

So 1mg of tablet form cost = \frac{75}{5000} = 0.015

Capsule form comes in 75 mg capsules and cost $63.75 for a bottle of 85  capsules

75 mg of 85  capsules,  so 75 * 85 = 6375mg

6375mg cost = $63.75

So 1mg of Capsule form cost = \frac{63.75}{6375} = $0.01

Caplet form comes in 100 mg caplets and cost $70.00 for 40 caplets

100 mg of 40 caplets ,  so 100 * 40 = 4000 mg

4000mg cost = $70.00

So 1mg of Caplet form cost = \frac{70}{4000} = $0.0175

Caplet form is the most expensive.

Combing like terms? 4(1.75y-3.5)+1.25y
neonofarm [45]
First you gotta distribute.
4 (1.75y - 3.5) + 1.25y
4 * 1.75 y = 7
4* (-3.5) = (-14)

7y - 14 + 1.25y
Combine like terms
8.25y - 14

The slope of the line below is 2. Use the coordinates of the labeled point to find a point-slope equation of the line.
stich3 [128]

Answer:

Option: D is the correct answer.

The equation of line in point-slope form is given by:

y-9=2(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the point-slope equation of a line is given by:

y-b=m(x-a)

where (a,b) is the point from which the line passes and m is the slope of the line.

Here we are given that:

The line passes through (1,9) and slope of the line is given to be 2.

Hence,

(a,b)=(1,9) and m=2

Hence, the equation of line is given by:

y-9=2(x-1)

Therefore, the point slope intercept equation of the line is: D
