Cat Food A has the better deal.

What do we know? :
10 pounds (Cat Food A / C.F.A) = $6.50
20 pounds (Cat Food B / C.F.B) = $14.00

Finding which one is the better deal :
If 10 pounds of C.F.A (Cat Food A) is $6.50, if we double the pounds, and cost, we would get 20 pounds of C.F.A for $13.00. This means you can get the same amount of pounds in C.F.A and C.F.B, and costs for 1 dollar less.

(Another way to solve this) :
Dividing the cost by pound.
C.F.A : 6.50 / 10 = 0.65
So, each pound of Cat Food A equals 0.65 cents.

C.F.B : 14.00 / 20 = 0.7
So each pound of Cat Food B equals 0.70 cents.

Conclusion :
In conclusion, both ways can be used to correctly solve this question, and both have the same results. Which is that Cat Food A is the better deal.

I hope this helps!! ~(^v^)~

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The response variable is the dependent variable whose variation depends on other variables and in this case it is the type of surgery either total knee replacement or partial knee replacement.

While the explanatory variable which is the independent variable manipulated by the researcher for the given experimental study is the amount of activity the patients were able to do after their respective surgeries.

Answer:

1. c

2. a

3. d

4. b

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1, use parchment paper for rotating it around the origin.

For 2, just make the y value positive.

For 3, add 13 to the y value.

For 4, use process of elimination with the answer choices.

(I know right, horrible explanation but you wanted the answers right?)

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

This explanation mostly depends on what you're learning right now. The first way would be to convert this matrix to a system of equations like this.

g + t + k = 90

g + 2t - k = 55

-g - t + 3k = 30

Then you solve using normal methods of substitution or elimination. It seems to me that elimination is the quickest method.

g + t + k = 90

-g - t + 3k = 30

____________

0 + 0 + 4k = 120

4k = 120

k = 30

No you can plug this into the first two equations

g + t + (30) = 90

g + t = 60

and

g + 2t - (30) = 55

g + 2t = 85

now use elimination again by multiplying the first equation by -1

g + 2t = 85

-g - t = -60

_________

0 + t = 25

t = 25

Now plug those both back into one of the equations. I'll just do the first one.

g + (25) + (30) = 90

g = 35

Therefore, we know that Ted spent the least amount of time on the computer.

The second method is using matrix reduction and getting the matrix in the row echelon form, therefore solving using the gauss jordan method. If you would like me to go through this instead, please leave a comment.
