Answer:
The graphs below show the cost y of buying x pounds of fruit. One graph shows the cost of buying x pounds of peaches, and the other shows the cost of buying x pounds of plums.
Which kind of fruit costs more per pound? Explain.
Bananas cost less per pound than peaches or plums. Draw a line alongside the other graphs that might represent the cost y of buying x pounds of bananas.
IM Commentary
This task allows students to reason about the relative costs per pound of the two fruits without actually knowing what the costs are. Students who find this difficult may add a scale to the graph and reason about the meanings of the ordered pairs. Comparing the two approaches in a class discussion can be a profitable way to help students make sense of slope.
Solutions
Solution: Slope as Unit Rate
The graph that represents the cost of x pounds of peaches is steeper, so it must have a larger slope. The slope can be interpreted as the unit rate; in this case it tells you the cost of a single pound of fruit.
Since the slope for the peach graph is greater than the slope of the plum graph, the cost of a pound of peaches is greater than the cost of a pound of plums.
For b, students should realize that the cost per pound of bananas will be represented by a slope that is less than either of the other two, and draw a line through the origin labeled "Bananas" and lying below both of the other graphs.
Solution: Adding a scale to the graph
Students who prefer to work with specific numbers can approach this problem by sketching in a scale on the x-axis and y-axis. For example, if they decided that a pound of peaches might cost a dollar, then they might plot the point (1,1) on the line labeled "Peaches", then fill out the rest of the scale accordingly. They could then read off the cost of a pound of plums and see that it is less than for peaches.
For the second question, they could choose any price per pound b for bananas that is less than the one they read off for plums, and then draw a line from the origin through the point (b, 1), and label it "Bananas".
Solve for x in the equation: 2x-7=14
Answer: x=10.5
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve for x, we want to use our properties to isolate x.
2x-7=14 [add both sides by 7]
2x=21 [divide both sides by 2]
x=10.5
Now, we know that x=10.5.

You have a cake that is 10 inches in diameter. You expect 12 people to share it, so you cut it into 12 equal slices. Before you get a chance to serve the cake, 12 more people arrive! So, you decide to cut a concentric circle in the cake so that you will have 24 pieces. How far from the center of the cake should the circle cut be made so that all 24 people get the same amount of cake?
Answer:
3.5355 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Area should be same the concentric circle and rest piece .
let's consider the radius of concentric circle as r
so it's area is π r²
area of whole circle is π (5)" ( because diameter is 10 inches)
so the area of rest piece is π (5)² - π r²
π (5)² - π r² = π r²
5² = 2r²
r² = 25/2
r = √(25/2)
r = 3.5355 inches

a line has a slope of 8 and a y intercept of 9 what is its equation in slope intercept form
Answer:
y= 8x +9
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope-intercept form:
y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.
Given that the slope is 8, m= 8.
Substitute m= 8 into the equation:
y= 8x +c
Given that the y-intercept is 9, c= 9.
Substitute c= 9 into the equation:
y= 8x +9
Thus, the equation of the line is y= 8x +9.
In Joey's neighborhood the ratio of families with dogs to families with cats is 5 to 2. There are 15 more families with dogs than families with cats. How many families have cats, and how many families have dogs?
Answer:
10 families have cats
25 families have dogs
Step-by-step explanation:
The difference of ratio units is 5-2 = 3. The difference in pet counts is 15, so we can see that each ratio unit stands for 15/3 = 5 pets. Then ...
dogs : cats = 5 : 2 = (5·5) : (2·5) = 25 : 10

2(x-5)-6=-18
x=___
Answer:
x= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Distribute:2(x -5) -6 = -18
2x -10 -6 =-18
Subtract the numbers:2x -10 -6 =-18
2x -16 = -18
Add 16 to both sides of the equation:2x =16 += -18
2x -16 +16 = -18 +16
Simplify:2x = -2
Divide both sides of the equation by the same term:2x/2 = -2/2
Simplify:x=-1
Answer:x = -1

Answer : The shape of the fence will be a circle
dimensions of the fence are : radius = 6.5 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
First we calculate the length of the different arms
AB = [tex]\sqrt{(-2+6)^2 + (-3+1)^2}[/tex]
≈ 4.47
CD = [tex]\sqrt{(5-3)^2 + (0-4)^2}[/tex]
≈ 4.47
Next we calculate the midpoint of these two arms
M1 = [tex]( \frac{-6-2}{2} , \frac{-1-3}{2} )[/tex] = ( -4, -2 )
M2 = [tex]( \frac{3+5}{2} , \frac{0+4}{2} )[/tex] = ( 4,2 )
hence midpoint of M1,M2 =( M ) = ( 0,0 )
finally considering M calculate the distance between M and car B,D
MB = [tex]\sqrt{(0+2)^2 + (0+3)^2}[/tex] = 3.60
MD = [tex]\sqrt{(0-5)^2 + (0)^2}[/tex] = 5
therefore the radius of the fence will be
= 5 + 1.5 = 6.5 meters ( because MD > MB )

Answer:
[tex]f(n) = 15 + (n + 1)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Tina earns $15 every week when she mows the lawn.
We would put $15 because she earns $15 every week.
She earns 15 every week, so we would put (n + 1).
Our final answer would be [tex]f(n) = 15 + (n + 1)[/tex]
Answer:
The explicit rule is:
[tex]f(n)=60+15(n-1)[/tex]
After 15 week, Tina will have $270 in her savings account.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s write down our sequence so we can see it better.
For the first week (i.e. the first term), Tina has $60.
For the second week (i.e. the second term), Tina has $75.
And for the 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th week, Tina has $90, $105, $120, and $135, respectively.
Therefore, we can write the following sequence:
60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135...
Note that our initial term a is 60.
And our common diffference will be 15.
Let’s find the explicit rule. The standard format for an explicit rule is:
[tex]f(n)=a+d(n-1)[/tex]
Where a is the initial term and d is the common difference.
Let’s substitute 60 for a and 15 for d. Hence, our explicit formula is:
[tex]f(n)=60+15(n-1)[/tex]
So, to find the amount Tina will have in her savings account in 15 weeks, we will substitute 15 for n and evaluate. So:
[tex]f(15)=60+15(15-1)[/tex]
Evaluate:
[tex]\begin{aligned} f(15)&=60+15(14) \\ f(15)&=60+210 \\ f(15)&=270 \end{aligned}[/tex]
Hence, after 15 weeks, Tina would have $270 in her savings account.
Solve the equation for x.
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-1)/8 = 2(x+2)/7
7*4(x-1) = 8*2(x+2)
28(x-1) = 16(x+2)
28*x + 28*-1 = 16*x + 16*2
28x - 28 = 16x + 32
28x - 16x = 32 + 28
12x = 60
x = 60/12
x = 5
Check:
4(5-1)/8 = 2(5+2)/7
4*4/8 = 2*7/7
16/8 = 2*1 = 2

Consider the following.
cos(x) = x3
A) Prove that the equation has at least one real root.
The equation cos(x) = x3 is equivalent to the equation f(x) = cos(x) − x3 = 0. f(x) is continuous on the interval (0, 1) there is a number c in (0, 1) such that f(c) = 0 by the Intermediate Value Theorem. Thus, there is a root of the equation cos(x) = x3, in the interval (0, 1).
B) Use your calculator to find an interval of length 0.01 that contains a root.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
cos(x) = x³
f(x) = cos (x) - x³
f(x) is continuous on the interval (0, 1)
when;
f(0) = cos (0) - (0)
f(0) = 1 - 0
f(0) = 1 > 0
f(1) = cos (1) - 1³
f(1) = 0.5403 - 1
f(1) = -0.4597
f(1) = - 0.46
f(1) = - 0.46 < 0
Since, 1 > 0 > -0.46, thus there is a number ''c" in (0,1)
such that f(c) = 0
By applying the Intermediate Value Theorem, there is a root of the equation in the interval (0,1)
b) Given that:
The interval length = 0.01; this implies that it is 0.005 length from its root.
f(0.865) = 0.0014
f(0.87) = - 0.013
The solution to the interval lies between 0.865 , 0.87 by using a calculator at length 0.01.

For the function f(x) = x2 + 4x - 12 solve the following.
f(x) < 0
Answer:
(-6,2)
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]f(x)<0[/tex]
We are given [tex]f(x)=x^2+4x-12[/tex].
So we need to solve:
[tex]x^2+4x-12<0[/tex]
First let's find when the expression on the left is 0.
[tex]x^2+4x-12=0[/tex].
The expression on the left is factorable.
Given the coefficient of [tex]x^2[/tex] is 1, all we have to do is see if there are two numbers that multiply to be -12 and add to be 4.
Those numbers are 6 and -2 so the factored form is:
[tex](x+6)(x-2)=0[/tex]
So the solutions can be found be solving the following linear equations:
[tex]x+6=0[/tex] and [tex]x-2=0[/tex].
First equation, you just need to subtract 6 on both sides. [tex]x=-6[/tex]
Second equation, you just need to add 2 on both sides. [tex]x=2[/tex]
So draw a number line with those on it and test the intervals they divide.
--------(-6)--------(2)----------
So we need to test three intervals.
*Plug in a number before -6 to see if that piece of the function is above the x-axis or below. We are looking for below since we want [tex]f(x)<0[/tex].
Let's plug in x=-8
[tex]f(x)=(x+6)(x-2)[/tex] or use [tex]f(x)=x^2+4x-12[/tex].
[tex]f(-8)=(-8+6)(-8-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(-8)=(-2)(-10)[/tex]
[tex]f(-8)=20[/tex] so this piece is above since 20 is positive and not negative.
So we will not include this interval in our answer.
*Plug in a number between -6 and 2 like 0.
[tex]f(x)=(x+6)(x-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(0)=(0+6)(0-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(0)=(6)(-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(0)=-12[/tex] so this piece is under since -12 is negative and not positive.
So our solution includes the interval (-6,2).
*Plug in a number after 2 like 5.
[tex]f(x)=(x+6)(x-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(5)=(5+6)(5-2)[/tex]
[tex]f(5)=(11)(3)[/tex]
[tex]f(5)=33[/tex] so this piece is above since 33 is positive and not negative.
The answer only includes the interval (-6,2).
