Answer: Yes

Tc = 3.12m

Therefore, total cost of apple is directly proportional to the total mass with a proportionality constant of 3.12.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of the apples is proportional to the total mass. The product of the mass and the cost per mass ($3.12) gives the total cost.

It can be shown using the equation below

Tc = c×m

Where Tc = total cost

c = cost per unit mass

m = total mass in kilogram

Tc = 3.12m

Therefore, total cost of apple is directly proportional to the total mass with a proportionality constant of 3.12.

Answer:

Yes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given the price of apple per kilogram.

Hence, price of total apples is equal to the product of number of apples and price per kilogram of apple.

Twenty times y is at most 100 in interval notation

DiKsa [7]

Answer:

$y\in (-\infty ,5]$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we need to write "Twenty times y is at most 100 in interval notation ".

20 times y means, 20y

Atmost means an inequality which is $\le$

ATQ,

$20\times y\le 100$

i.e.

$20y\le 100\\\\y\le 5$

We can also write it as :

$y\in (-\infty ,5]$

Hence, the required interval notation is $y\in (-\infty ,5]$ .

Micheal solved this inequality as shown: step 1: -6(x + 3) + 10 < -2 step 2: -6x - 18 + 10 < -2 step 3: -6x - 8 < -2 st

<h3>Answer: addition property of inequality</h3>

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

Explanation:

These are the steps to focus on

step 3: -6x - 8 < -2

step 4: -6x < 6

The move from the third step to the fourth step has us adding 8 to both sides. Therefore, we use the addition property of inequality.

That property has four forms

If $a > b$ then $a + c > b+c$
If $a < b$ then $a+c < b+c$
If $a \ge b$ then $a + c \ge b+c$
If $a \le b$ then $a+c \le b+c$

It's similar to the idea of starting with a = b, then adding c to both sides to get a+c = b+c

We add the same thing to both sides to keep things balanced.
