Answer:

6 1/4 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

24/2 = 12

2.5/2 = 1.25

12 x 5 = 60

1.25 x 5 = 6.25 cups

For every 24 cookies Markes needs 2.5 cups of flour. So, for 12 cookies he needs half of that which is 1.25 cups. 12 is a fifth of 60, so we multiply 1.25 by 5 which gives us 6.25 cups of flour. :D

What is the slope of the line that passes through the pair of point? (5, 7), (2, 1)

choli [55]

The slope of the line that passes through the pair of point (5, 7), (2, 1) is 2

Solution:

Given that line that passes through the pair of point (5, 7), (2, 1)

To find: slope of the line

The slope of line is given as:

For a line passing through two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ slope is given as:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

Here in this problem,

$\left(x_{1}, y_{1}\right)=(5,7) \text { and }\left(x_{2}, y_{2}\right)=(2,1)$

Substituting the values in above formula,

$m=\frac{1-7}{2-5}=\frac{-6}{-3}=2$

Thus the slope of given line is 2

The cost of belonging to a gym can be modeled by C(m)= 50m + 79.50, where C(m) is the total cost for m months of membership. Sta

erik [133]

Answer:

The slope is 50, which is the cost per month of the gym membership, and 79.50 is the y intercept. It represents the initial cost to join the gym.

Step-by-step explanation:

C(m)= 50m + 79.50,

This is written in the form y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept.

The slope is 50, which is the cost per month of the gym membership, and 79.50 is the y intercept. It represents the initial cost to join the gym.
