Clara has 9 pounds of apples. She needs 1 1/4 pounds to make one apple pie. If she saves 2 pounds for applesauce, how many pies, p, can she make? Write an algebraic equation to represent this situation.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

She can make :

5 3/5 pies

Algebraic equation =

1 1/4 p = (9 - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Clara has 9 pounds of apples. If she saves 2 pounds for applesauce, how many pies, p, can she make?

Total number of pounds of apples = 9 pounds

She saves 2 pounds for apple sauce

The number of pounds of apples left =

9 pounds - 2 pounds

= 7 pounds

She needs 1 1/4 pounds to make one apple pie.

Therefore

1 1/4 pounds = 1 apple pie

7 pounds = p

Cross Multiply

1 1/4 × p = 7 × 1

p = 7 ÷ 1 1/4

p = 7 ÷ 5/4

p = 7 × 4/5

p = 28/5

p = 5 3/5 pies

An Algebraic equation for this situation is:

1 1/4 p = (9 - 2)

Where p = Number of pies

Answer:

Linear Function

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: y = 4x - 2

Plug in the values of x or y for each ordered pair:

y = 4(0) - 2

y = 0 - 2

y = -2

(0, -2)

y = 4(-2) - 2

y = -8 - 2

y = -10

(-2, -10)

14 = 4x - 2

12 = 4x

3 = x

(3, 14)

-14 = 4x - 2

-12 = 4x

-3 = x

(-3, -14)

What type of function is it?

Linear function

Why is it a linear function?

Refer back to the original formula given: y = 4x - 2. This is in slope-intercept form, or y = mx + b. This specific format informs graphers the line will be straight, or linear. You can also graph all of the ordered pairs to obtain a visual of a straight line, proving this function to be linear.

#1

y=4(0)-2y=-2

So pair is

(0,-2)

#2

y=4(-2)-2y=-10

Pair is (-2,-10)

#3

14=4x-24x=16x=4

pair is

(4,14)

#4

-14=4x-24x=-12x=-3

Pair is

(-3,-14)

Please select the best answer from the choices provided


A
B
C
D

Answers

Answer:

c). y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can check a line by inputting the x and y from (x, y) into the equation.

For a. y = 2x we get

2 = 2*10 and 2 = 2*(-3), both of those are false

For b. y = 2x - 3 we get

2 = 2*10 - 3 and 2 = 2*(-3) + 10, both of those are false again

For c. y = 2 we get

2 = 2 and 2 = 2, both of those are true, so this is the right answer.

For d. y = 2x + 10 we get

2 = 2*10 + 10 and 2 = 2*(-3) + 10, both of those are false

Alternatively, we can solve the equation y = ax + b (this gives a single answer for any two points with different x's).

y = ax + b

We input (x, y) as (10, 2) and (-3, 2)

2 = a*10 + b = 10a + b

2 = a*(-3) + b = b - 3a

so we have

10a + b = b - 3a

13a = b - b

13a = 0

a = 0

Now we ca use a = 0 to solve either of the equations above:

2 = 10a + b

2 = 10*0 + b

2 = b

so with a=0 and b=2 we get the answer

y = 0*x + 2

y = 2

Which brings us to answer c. again.

What is the sum of the interior angles of the polygon pictured below?

Sum of interior angles = (n-2) x 180, where n is the number of sides.

Sum of interior angles = (9-2) x 180 = 7 x 180 = 1,260 degrees.

Answer:

Solution :-

We have

Side of polygon = 9

So,

The work of a student to solve a set of equations is shown below:

Equation 2: 2x + 5y = 15

Step 1: −2(x + 2y) = −2(10)
2x + 5y = 15

Step 2: −2x − 4y = −10
2x + 5y = 15

Step 3: 1y = 5

Step 4: x + 2(1) = 10

Step 5: x = 8


In which step did the student first make an error?

Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4

Answers

Answer:

Step 2 has error and step 4 has error.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can see that elimination method is  applied to solve the  system  of equations  for which -2 is multiplied both sides of equation first

-2(x+2y)=-2(10 which is correct

but in step 2

left side is -2x-4y and the right side is -10 which has to be -20 which makes this step wrong and this is the error made by student.

in Step 4 also ,value of the y has to be 5 but student plugged y =1 which is also error by student.

Correct solution is

   -2x-4y= -20

     2x+ 5y= 15

on adding ,we get

y = -5

plugging y =5 in equation x+2y= 10 ,we get x+2(-5) =10 ,we get x = 20

therefore (20,-5) is the  solution

If the angle of a sector measures 45° what fraction of the circle is the sector

The fraction of the circle measured by a sector which subtends an angle; 45° is; 1/8 (one-eighth).

It has been established from circle geometry that the angle subtended at a point is 360°.

On this note, the algebraic sum of angles in a circle is; 360°.

In essence, a sector which measures 45° is only 1/8 of the circle.

45/360 = 1/8.
