Solve 7r+ 2 = 5(r – 4)

AveGali [126]

Multiply the bracket by 5

I used PEMDAS

P= parenthesis

E= exponents

M=multiplication

D= division

A= addition

S= subtraction

7r+2= 5(r-4)

7r+2= 5r-20

Move 5r to the left hand side . Positive 5r changes to negative 5r

7r-5r+2= 5r-5r-20

2r+2=- 20

2r+2-2= -20-2

Move positive 2 to the right hand side. Changes to negative -2

2r+2-2= -20-2

2r= -22

Divide by 2 for 2r and -22

2r/2= -22/2

r= -11

Answer is r= -11

Brown rice costs $2 per pound, and beans cost $1.60 per pound. Lin has $10 to spend on these items to make a large meal of beans

Valentin [98]

Answer:

1. $2r+1.6b=10$

2. $r=5-0.8b$

3. $b=6.25-1.25r$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: "Brown rice costs $2 per pound, and beans cost $1.60 per pound. Lin has $10 to spend on these items to make a large meal of beans and rice for a potluck dinner. Let b be the number of pounds of beans Lin buys and r be the number of pounds of rice she buys when she spends all her money on this meal.</h3><h3>1. Write an equation relating the two variables.</h3><h3>2. Rearrange the equation so "b" is the independent variable.</h3><h3>3. Rearrange the equation so "r" is the independent variable."</h3><h3 />

1. According to the information exercise given in the exercise, the cost per pounds of brown rice is $2. Since "r" represents the number of pounds of rice Lin buys, the total cost of the brown rice she buys can be represented with this expression:

$2r$

The beans cost $1.60 per pound. Since "b" represents the number of pounds of beans Lin buys, the total cost of beans she buys can be represented as:

$1.6b$

Knowing that she spends $10, you can write the following equation:

$2r+1.6b=10$

2. In order to rearrange the equation so "b" is the independent variable, you need to solve for "r":

$2r+1.6b=10\\\\2r=10-1.6b\\\\r=\frac{10-1.6b}{2} \\\\r=5-0.8b$

3. To rearrange the equation so "r" is the independent variable, you must solve for "b". You get:

$2r+1.6b=10\\\\1.6b=10-2r\\\\b=\frac{10-2r}{1.6}\\\\b=6.25-1.25r$

Explain the two ways we can find the slope from an equation written in STANDARD FORM. Which way is more convenient and WHY?

Crank

Answer: Derivative or y = mx + b

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the m value from the standard form equation:

y = mx + b

Or, the second way, is to take the derivative of the function and plug in your x value for your slope.

The derivative of a linear function is very easy to take, so it boils to preference
