Kelly and Greta are asked to write an equation for the scenario below. "One person was able to plant 4 trees in the same amount of time that 5 people working together were able to plant 20 trees." The girls agree that x represents the number of people working and y represents the number of trees planted. Kelly wrote the equation y = one-fourth x, and Greta wrote the equation y = 4 x. Which person is correct, and why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Greta is correct. The answer is y = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because one person is able to plant four trees and five people are able to plant 20 in the same amount of time which means 4 trees is to 1 person. In other words if you substitute the values into the equation you will see that x = 1 in the first scenario and x = 5 in second scenario.I will work out the second scenario below.

y = 4x (where y = 20)

20  = 4(x)

[tex]\frac{20}{4} = \frac{4x}{4}[/tex]

5 = x

OR

y = 4x (where x = 5)

y = 4 * 5

y = 20

Answer 2

The equation which represents the number of trees planted y for the x number of people will be y = 4x thus Greta will be right.

How to form an equation?

Determine the known quantities and designate the unknown quantity as a variable while trying to set up or construct a linear equation to fit a real-world application.

An equation is a set of variables that are constrained through a situation or case.

As per the given,

1 person plants 4 trees.

x = 1 and y = 4

y/x = 4

5 people plant 20 trees

x = 5 and y = 20

y/x = 20/5 = 4

y = 4x

Thus, y = 4x will be correct.

Hence "The equation which represents the number of trees planted y for the x number of people will be y = 4x thus Greta will be right".

What are the first three terms of the sequence defined by the recursive function an=an-1-(an-2-4), when a5=-2 and a6=0

On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 4, 1) and (0, 3). Everything below and to the right of the line is shaded. Which linear inequality is represented by the graph? y ≤ 2x + 4 y ≤ one-halfx + 3 y ≥ One-halfx + 3 y ≥ 2x + 3

Answers

Answer: [tex]y \leq \frac{1}{2} x+3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If a function has a positive slope, that means the y value is increasing with respect to x. As you go down the x-axis, the y value will continuously increase.

First you want to plot the two sets of coords that they gave you, or else you wont know what the line looks like. Or, you could visually do it in your head. We're going down -4 on the x-axis and down 1 on the y-axis. Then for our second coords, we are going to 0 on the x-axis, then up 3 on the y-axis.

You could plot this for yourself, but im going to do it in my head for simplicity. We also need to find the slope of this function in order for us to find the y-intercept. The slope is change in y divided by the change in x. Subtract the initial position from the final position.

3 - 1 = 2

0 - (-4) = 4

2/4 = 1/2

The new equation is:

[tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x+b\\plugin(0,3)\\3=\frac{1}{2} (0)+b\\b=3[/tex]

Everything is shaded below and to the right of the line. They said the line was solid, so that means less than or equal to, [tex]\leq[/tex]

HELP ME!!! y is inversely proportional to square of x. Given that y=3 when x=7, find the value of x when y=18.375 TYSM!

Answers

Answer:

The value of x is -2√2 or 2√2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that y is inversely proportion to x², y ∝ 1/x². So the formula will be y = k/x² where k is the constant. In order, to find the value of k, you have to substitute the values of x and y into the formula :

[tex]y = \frac{k}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]let \: x = 7 \\ let \: y = 3[/tex]

[tex]3 = \frac{k}{ {7}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]3 = \frac{k}{49} [/tex]

[tex]3 \times 49 = k[/tex]

[tex]k = 147[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{147}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]

Next, you have to substitute the y value into the equation to find x :

[tex]let \: y = 18.375[/tex]

[tex]18.375 = \frac{147}{ {x}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]18.375 {x}^{2} = 147[/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} = \frac{147}{18.375} [/tex]

[tex] {x}^{2} = 8[/tex]

[tex]x = ± \sqrt{8} [/tex]

[tex]x = - 2 \sqrt{2} \: \: or \: \: 2 \sqrt{2} [/tex]

The left hand side factors into a product with two terms:

(2 + a - b) (-2 + a + b) = 0

Split into two equations:

2 + a - b = 0 or -2 + a + b = 0

Subtract a + 2 from both sides:

-b = -a - 2 or -2 + a + b = 0

Multiply both sides by -1:

b = a + 2 or -2 + a + b = 0

Subtract a - 2 from both sides:

Christine must buy at least $45$ fluid ounces of milk at the store. The store only sells milk in $200$ milliliter bottles. If there are $33.8$ fluid ounces in $1$ liter, then what is the smallest number of bottles that Christine could buy? (You may use a calculator on this problem.)

Answers

Answer:

7 bottles

Step-by-step explanation:

Christie needs to buy at least 45 fluid ounces of milk at the store.

33.8 fluid ounces=1 Liter

1 fluid ounce = [tex]\dfrac{1}{33.8}[/tex] Liters

45 fluid ounces = [tex]\dfrac{1}{33.8} \times 45 =1.3313$ Liters[/tex]

Now:

1 Liter =1000 Milliliter

Therefore:

1.3313 Liter= 1000 X 1.3313 Milliliters

1.3313 Liter= 1331.3 Milliliter

Therefore, the smallest number of 200 milliliter bottles Christie must buy is:
