A. 1 pound of cherries costs 2.50
B. Yes it is constant
C. I believe that you would put cost on the y and lbs on the x
E. 5 lbs of cherries = 2.50 x 5 = $12.50
First write the inequality: 15
4.75x +3.50
Then to solve, first subtract 3.50 from both sides to get:
11.50
4.75x
Then divide by 4.75 to get 2.42, and since you can't buy .42 of a bag of fruit, you round down. So your final answer would be 2 bags of fruit.
<h3>Given</h3>
A(-3, 1), B(4, 5)
<h3>Find</h3>
coordinates of P on AB such that AP/PB = 5/2
<h3>Solution</h3>
AP/PB = 5/2 . . . . . desired result
2AP = 5PB . . . . . . multiply by 2PB
2(P-A) = 5(B-P) . . . meaning of the above
2P -2A = 5B -5P . . eliminate parentheses
7P = 2A +5B . . . . . collect P terms
P = (2A +5B)/7 . . . .divide by the coefficient of P
P = (2(-3, 1) +5(4, 5))/7 . . . . substitute the given points
P = (-6+20, 2+25)/7 . . . . . . simplify
P = (2, 3 6/7)
For this answer, you multiply the weight of each penny nail by x and the weight of each wood nail by y. If the bag holds one pound of nails, you would use the inequality ≤.
.05x + 0.1y ≤ 1
