Answer:
24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50
x= 2.5 pounds of Granny Smith apples
Step-by-step explanation:
Gala apples = 3 lbs
Granny apples = x lbs
They cost 4.50 a pound
Total cost = 24.75
Total cost = gala apples * cost per pound + granny apples * cost per pound
Substitute in what we know
24.75 = 3*4.50 + x*4.50
24.75 = 13.50 + 4.5x
Subtract 13.50 from each side
24.75-13.50 = 13.50-13.50 + 4.5x
11.25 = 4.5x
Divide by 4.50 on each side
11.25/4.5 = 4.5x/4.5
2.5 =x
Answer:
4(x - 1) = 6(x + 3)
x = -11
Step-by-step explanation:
x represents “the number” so we would substitute this with a variable.

16/3 is rational simply because it is a fraction made up of whole numbers.
Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as fractions made up of whole numbers.

Answer:
y = x^2 - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The vertex of a parabola is exactly halfway between the focus and the directrix. If the focus is at (0, -6) and the directrix is the line y = -2, then we do this to locate the vertex: Draw a vertical line through (0, -6) also crossing the line y = -2. The y value halfway between y = -6 and y = -2 is y = -4, and the vertex is thus (0, -4).
Using the vertex method, write out the equation of this parabola, starting with the general form y - k = (x-h)^2, where (h, k) is the vertex. Here h = 0 and k = -4
We get: y + 4 = (x - 0)^2, or y + 4 = x^2, or y = x^2 - 4. As a check, let x = 0; y = -4, which is the y-coordinate of the vertex.
