Answer:

She could make 5 of each type.

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the number of 0.5 pound hamburgers and y is the number of 0.25 pound hamburgers:

0.5x + 0.25y = 3.75

Divide through by 0.25:

2x + y = 15

Some whole numbers which fit this relation  are x = 5 and y = 5.

Answer:

  • See below

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

  • Number of 0.5-pound is a
  • Number of 0.25-pound is b
  • Total weight is 3.75 pounds

<u>Equation for the number of hamburgers:</u>

  • 0.5a + 0.25b = 3.75

simplified to:

  • 2a + b = 15

<u>Minimum number of each size is zero, then the maximum possible number is:</u>

  • a = 0 ⇒ b = 15
  • b = 0 ⇒ 2a = 15 ⇒ a = 7 so b can't be zero, 2*7 + b = 15 ⇒ b = 1

<u>So possible numbers are within the range:</u>

  • 0.5 pound ⇒ 0 to 7
  • 0.25 pound ⇒ 1 to 15

Which of the following is a point-slope equation of a line that passes through the points (-1,4) and (8,-2)
dexar [7]

Answer:

y = (2/3)x + 4 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

For reference, a linear function has an equation of y = mx + b

The first thing we're going to do is use the slope formula, \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} or rise over run. In this case that looks like:

(-2-4) - (8 - -1)

-2 -4 comes out to - 6, and the denominator comes out to 9.

6/9 is equal to 2/3, which is our m or slope value.

Next we want to find the b value, or our y-intercept. To do that we'll plug one of the points into the equation with our new-found slope:

4 = (2/3)-1 +b

4 = -2/3 + b

4 2/3 = b

That means our complete equation is:

y = (2/3)x + 4 2/3

OR

y = (2/3)x + 14/3 (equivalent but an improper fraction rather than a mixed fraction).

An item is regularly priced at $80. Juan bought It at a discount of 20% off the regular price. How much did Juan pay?
Gnesinka [82]
Hello there! So, the item has a 20% discount, but Juan still had to pay 80% for the item. To find the amount he paid, all you have to do is multiply the price by the percentage. We multiply by 80%, because he still had to pay the portion of the price. 80 * 80% (0.8) is 64. The. Juan paid $64.

Latoya drives 8 miles to work in 13 minutes. What is her average rate, in miles per hour, when rounded to the nearest wholes num
Mama L [17]

Answer:

37 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the average rate (average speed) of Latoya in miles per hour, you would divide the distance traveled (in miles) by the time taken to travel (in hours).

So we know that Latoya traveled 8 miles in 13 minutes. We cannot divide 8 by 13, because 13 is in minutes, not hours. We must convert 13 minutes to hours before dividing.

There are 60 minutes in one hour, so to covert minutes into hours, we would divide the minutes (13) by 60. Doing this would give you 13/60. You cannot simplify the fraction 13/60, because 13 is a prime number. It would be best to just leave it as it is for now. So Latoya traveled for 13/60 hours.

Now, to find her average rate in miles per hour, you divide the distance traveled in miles (8 miles) by the time it took to travel in hours (13/60):

8 ÷ 13/60

Remember, a ÷ b/c = a × c/b. Using this:

8 ÷ 13/60 = 8 × 60/13 = 480/13 ≈ 37 rounded to the nearest whole number.

Latoya had an average rate of about 37 miles per hour.

I hope this helps. :)
