Suppose A and B are points on the number line. If AB = 8 and B lies at −7, where could A be located?
Select ALL that apply.
−1
1
15
−15

Answers

Answer:

The correct answers are: 1 and -15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be a point on number line and b be the second point on number line.

The distance between two numbers on number line is calculate by subtracting the smaller number from larger number.

Here

AB = 8

B = -7

We have to look at the options one by one.

For A = -1

As A>B

[tex]AB = B-A = -1-(-7) = -1+7 = 6[/tex]

For A = 1

As A>B so

[tex]AB = A-B = 1-(-7) = 1+7 = 8[/tex]

So with A = 1 , AB = 8

This is one of the right answers.

For A=15

As A>B

[tex]AB = A-B = 15-(-7) = 15+7 = 22\\[/tex]

For A=-15

As B>A

[tex]AB = B-A = -7-(-15) = -7+15 = 8[/tex]

As with A=1 and A=-15, the distance between AB is 8 so these are the correct answers.

Hence,

The correct answers are: 1 and -15

Answer:

a) 3x + y = -5 & b) y = 1/3 ( 21- 9x )

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

3x + y = -5

y = -3x -5

b)

y = 1/3 ( 21 - 9x)

y = -3x + 7

y = 3x + 2.5

the slop is to be same in the parallel lines. slop means m in ( y = mx + c )

so a) & b) are parallel lines. since their m is -3 .

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+2y=29

5x-2y=41

add the equations

10x=70

divide both sides by ten

x=7

substitute 7 in the first equation

5(7)+2y=29

simplify

35+2y=29

subtract 35 from both sides

2y=-6

y=-3 x=7

5x+2y=12

subtract the equations

x=1.5

substitute

4.5+2y=9

subtract 4.5 from both sides

2y=4.5

simplify

y=2.25 x=1.5

5x+2y=-9

2x-3y=4

multiply first equation by three and second by two

-15+6y=-27

add 15 to both sides

Answers

Answer:

Find the ratio of minutes to miles, 4:1. Multiply 7.5 by 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Minutes: 10 || 16 || ?  || 48

-----Miles: 2.5 || 4 || 7.5 || 12

Required

Which statements solve for the missing value?

First, we need to calculate the ratio of minutes to mile

[tex]Ratio = \frac{Minutes}{Mile}[/tex]

When minutes = 16; mile = 4

So, we have:

[tex]Ratio = \frac{16}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Ratio = 4[/tex]

Next, we multiply the ratio by 7.5

[tex]Minutes = Ratio * 7.5[/tex]

[tex]Minutes =4 * 7.5[/tex]

[tex]Minutes = 30[/tex]

1. Allison’s middle school team has designed t-shirts containing their team name and color. Allison and her friend Nicole have volunteered to call local stores to get an estimate on the total cost of purchasing t-shirts. Print-o-Rama charges a set-up fee, as well as a fixed amount for each shirt ordered. The total cost is shown below for the given number of shirts. Value T’s and More charges $8 per shirt. Which company should they use?

a. Does either pricing model represent a proportional relationship between the quantity of t-shirts and the total cost? Explain.

b. What is the constant of proportionality of Value T’s and More? What does it represent?

c. How much is Print-o-Rama’s set-up fee?

d. If you need to purchase 90 shirts, write a proposal to your teacher indicating which company the team should use. Be sure to support your choice. Determine the number of shirts that you need for your team.

Answers

Answer:

the numbers are missing here, so I looked for a similar question:

Print-O-Rama

# shirts    total  cost

10                $95

50             $375  

a. Does either pricing model represent a proportional relationship between the quantity of t-shirts and the total cost? Explain.

Value T’s and More offers a proportional relationship since each t-shirt costs $8 regardless of the number of t-shirts

b. What is the constant of proportionality of Value T’s and More? What does it represent?

$8 per t-shirt

f(c) = $8t

the function of total cost = $8 times the number of t-shirts ordered

c. How much is Print-o-Rama’s set-up fee?

using the high-low method

variable cost = ($375 - $95) / /50 - 10) = $7 per t-shirt

fixed cost (set-up fee) = $375 - (50 x $7) = $25

d. If you need to purchase 90 shirts, write a proposal to your teacher indicating which company the team should use. Be sure to support your choice. Determine the number of shirts that you need for your team.

purchasing 90 t-shirts at Print-o-Rama costs = $25 + (90 x $7) = $655

purchasing 90 t-shirts at Value T’s and More costs = 90 x $8 = $720

you should purchase the t-shirts at Print-o-Rama since the cost is lower.
