A linear function is an algebraic equation in which each term is either a constant or the product of a constant and (the first power of) a single variable. For example, a common equation,
y
=
m
x
+
b
, (namely the slope-intercept form, which we will learn more about later) is a linear function because it meets both criteria with
x
and
y
as variables and
m
and
b
as constants. It is linear: the exponent of the
x
term is a one (first power), and it follows the definition of a function: for each input (
x
) there is exactly one output (
y
). Also, its graph is a straight line.
Answer:
The number of melon was 3 and the number of apples was 45.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Melons cost $20 per crate and apples cost $8 per create. If the total was 48 crates for $420, you can make the following system of equations, where
is the number of melons and
is the number of apples:

2. By applying the Method of substitution, you can solve for
in the first equation and substitute it into the second one to find
. Then, you can substitute the value of
into the first equation to find
:



C multiply 1/2 by 10 and 1/5 by 2
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
If you simple this expression we can see that 7/35 will simplify to 1/5 first. As for the exponents, you can write them out to make it easier to cancel, shown in the photo.
