From the equation that was gotten, the value of the pecan pies and the cheesecake will be $9 each.

Based on the information given, the equations to solve the question will be:

9p + 8s = 153 ..... i

2p + 6s = 72 ..... ii

Multiply equation i by 2

Multiply equation ii by 9.

18p + 16s = 306

18p + 54s = 648

Subtract the equations

38s = 342

s = 9

Since 2p + 6s = 72

2p + 6(9) = 72

2p + 54 = 72

2p = 72 - 54.

2p = 18

p = 18/2 = 9

They're both $9 each

If F(x) and G(x) are two functions such that F(G(x)) = x then F(x) and G(x) are ..?
lana [24]
They are inverse functions though to be completely thorough your teacher should have also put g(f(x)) = x as well. Though I can see what your teacher is aiming for at least.

The idea is that whatever the output of g(x) is, it's plugged into f(x) and the initial input is the result. So g(x) takes a step forward and f(x) takes a step back undoing everything g(x) did. Which is exactly what an inverse operation does.

Calculating Rate of change
ivolga24 [154]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following coordinates of two points on the line of the graph shown in the question as: A(2, 1) and B(4, 2)

Vertical change from point A = y_2 - y_1 = 2 - 1 = 1

Horizontal change from point A = x_2 - x_1 = 4 - 2 = 2

Rate of change = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5

The graph of a linear function is shown on the grid
monitta

Answer: Choice A

y + 1 = -3(x+2)

=============================

Explanation:

Let's look through the answer choices.

Choices C and D show that the point (2,1) is on the line. But the graph does not show this. So we can rule out choices C and D.

With choice A, the slope is negative and choice B has a positive slope.

The answer must be choice A because the line is going downhill as we move from left to right.

--------------

A common method is to pick two points on the line and compute the slope using the slope formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

Once you know the slope, you would use point slope form

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

What is the difference of the two expressions?
valkas [14]

<em>Answer is x + 12</em>

<em />

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Hello! Recall that you have to write clear questions in order to get exact answers. So I'll help you assuming that the two expressions are the following:

First expression:

2x+9

Second expression:

x-3

So the operation we need to perform is:

2x+9-(x-3)

Recall some rules:

(+)\times (+)=+ \\ \\ (-)\times (-)=+ \\ \\ (-)\times (+)=- \\ \\ (+)\times (-)=-

Hence:

2x+9-(x-3)=2x+9-x+3 \\ \\ \\ Combine \ like \ terms: \\ \\ (2x-x)+(9+3) \\ \\ \boxed{x+12}
