Square roots and squaring are always nonlinear.
4/10 and 4/100 are the same because all you had to do was multiply both the numerator and denominator by 10. It is still the same amount. Hope this helps!
Let r, g and b represent red, green and blue.
r+g+b = 74
r=g-1
b=r+g
Again, r+g+b = 74. Let's substitutte r+g for b: r+g+(r+g) = 74.
Next, let's eliminate r. Use r=g-1. Then g-1 + g + g-1 + g = 74
Combining the g terms, 4g - 2 = 74 => 4g = 76 => g = 19
Recall that r=g-1
and
b=r+g
Find r. If r=g-1, and g=19, then r = 19-1=18
Find b: b = r+g = 18+19=37
So there are 37 blue candies, 18 red candies and 19 green candies.
Check: 37+18+19=74 ??? Yes.
Answer:
y = 60x + 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of hours that we ski is a variable cost where each hour costs $60. On top of that, we have a fixed cost of $20 which stays the same no matter how long we ski.
So we can use an equation to find the totla cost C given the number of hours t as follows:
C(t) = 60t + 20
We can use this equation to find the cost of a skiing session by plugging in some value for t. For example, if we ski for 3 hours:
C(3) = 60(3) + 20 = $200
The equation can also be written using x and y and mean the same thing.
