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

write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of -3 and contains the point (4, -5).
Novosadov [1.4K]
You can answer this question by plugging the given values into point-slope form, which is y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1}). M will represent slope and x_{1} and y_{1} will represent the x and y coordinates.

   y - y_{1} = m (x - x_{1})   Substitute in the values
y - (-5) = 4 (m - 4)   Cancel out the -(-5)
   y + 5 = 4 (m - 4)   Use the Distributive Property
   y + 5 = 4m - 16    Subtract 5 from both sides
       
         y = 4m - 21

Hayden had 2 and 1/2 gallons of water in his watering can. The seed packet said to use 1/4 of a gallon for peppers and 5/8 of a
Flauer [41]

Answer:

7/8 of a gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

First find a common denominator for each of the values, in this case eighths. Next, add the total water used for the tomatoes and peppers (you'll get 7/8 gallons). Then, convert the 2 and a half gallons to eighths, getting 20/8 of a gallon. Next, subtract the 7/8 from the 20/8; getting 13/8. Since you need to find the amount of water used for the lettuce, subtract the last value from 3/4 gallons (or 6/8)
