Hello there! A. 3.75 hours is your answer.
Okay, so lets start by finding the unit rate. To find the unit rate, we can use this formula: total ÷ time = unit rate.
total (72 cookies) ÷ time (2.5 hours) = unit rate. (how many cookies she can decorate and bake in an hour)
72 ÷ 2.5 = 28.8 cookies an hour
Now that we have this information, replace the 180 cookies in for the total number and use algebra to solve.
180 cookies ÷ x time = 28.8
Since 180 is a little more than 2 times 72, A would best fit since 3.75 is much closer to 2.5 than the other options. To check this, we can place 3.75 in for x in 180 ÷ x = 28.8.
180 ÷ 3.75 = 28.8.
So, this is your correct answer.
Answer:
3x + y = -5
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Pre-Algebra</u>
- Distributive Property
- Equality Properties
<u>Algebra I</u>
Standard Form: Ax + By = C
Point-Slope Form: y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)
- x₁ - x coordinate
- y₁ - y coordinate
- m - slope
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[PS] y - 11 = 3(x - 2)
<u>Step 2: Rewrite</u>
<em>Find Standard Form</em>
- Distribute 3: y - 11 = 3x - 6
- Subtract 3x on both sides: -3x - y - 11 = -6
- Add 11 to both sides: -3x - y = 5
- Factor -1: -1(3x + y) = 5
- Divide -1 on both sides: 3x + y = -5
