Answer:

a) $0.83

b) k = 1.205

c) In the context of this problem, k means

The number of chocolate chip cookies increases as the price increases because number of chocolate chip cookie is directly proportional to its price

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara has opened her own bakery, where customers can buy three chocolate chip cookies for $2.49.

a. What is the unit price?

The unit price means the cost of 1 cookie

Hence:

3 chocolate chip cookies = $2.49

1 chocolate chip cookies = x

3x = $2.49 × 1

x = $2.49 × 1/3

x = $0.83

Hence, the unit price = $0.83

b. What is the constant of proportionality, or k?

Chocolate chip cookie ∝ Price

Chocolate chip cookie is directly proportional to the Price

C = kP

Where k is constant of proportionality

k = Chocolate chip cookie/Price

k = C/P

Hence,

k = 3/2.49

k = 1.2048192771

k = 1.205

c. In a complete sentence, explain what k means in the context of this problem.

In the context of this problem, k means

The number of chocolate chip cookies increases as the price increases because number of chocolate chip cookie is directly proportional to its price

Lee spent $36 to purchase a combination of drinks, sandwiches, and chips for himself and his friends. A drink costs $2, a sandwi
valkas [14]

2x+4y+0.50z=36 represents the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Drinks = x

Sandwich = y

And,

Chips = z

Total amount on these items = $36

According to the statement;

x(cost\ of\ one\ drink)+y(cost\ of\ one\ sandwich)+z(cost\ of\ one\ chips)=\ Total\ amount\ spent\\2x+4y+0.50z=36

2x+4y+0.50z=36 represents the situation.

In MON, J, K, and L are midpoints. If JL = 11, LK = 13, and ON = 20, and JL || MN, LK || MO, and JK || ON, what is the length of
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The lengths of MN is 22 units, MO is 26 units and JK is 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>A l</em><em>ine segment</em><em> joining the </em><em>mid-points of two sides</em><em> in a triangle is </em><em>parallel to the third side</em><em> and </em><em>equal to half its length</em>

In Δ MON

∵ J, K, and L are mid-points

∵ JL // MN and LK // MO

∴ L is the mid-point of ON

∴ J is the mid-point of MO

∴ K is the mid-point of MN

∵ J, L are the mid-points of MO and ON

∵ JL is opposite to MN

→ By using the rule above

∴ JL = \frac{1}{2} MN

∵ JL = 11 units

∴ 11 = \frac{1}{2} MN

→ Multiply both sides by 2

∴ 22 = MN

∴ MN = 22 units

∵ K, L are the mid-points of MN and ON

∵ KL is opposite to MO

→ By using the rule above

∴ KL = \frac{1}{2} MO

∵ KL = 13 units

∴ 13 = \frac{1}{2} MO

→ Multiply both sides by 2

∴ 26 = MO

∴ MO = 26 units

∵ J, K are the mid-points of MO and MN

∵ JK is opposite to ON

→ By using the rule above

∴ JK = \frac{1}{2} ON

∵ ON =20 units

∴ JK = \frac{1}{2} (20)

∴ JK = 10 units

∴ The lengths of MN are 22 units, MO is 26 units and JK is 10 units

Carlton thinks that converting metric units is as easy as moving the ________​
fredd [130]

Answer:

  • Carlton thinks that converting metric units is as easy as moving the <u>decimal point</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • When you convert the unit, you move decimal point  on your answer from the left to the right or from the right to the left the number of places as per relevant prefix.

<u>Example: </u>

  • 1 meter = 1000 millimeters (1.0 m = 1000.0 mm)
  • 1 milligram = 0.001 grams ( 1.0 mg = 0.001 g)

<em>see attached for prefixes</em>
