Answer:
For each additional pound, the price increases $1.50.
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets find the slope of the graph of othe given data.
Let x be the weight of pumpkin in pounds
Let y be the price of the pumpkin in dollars.
For 4 pound pumpkin the price is 6 dollars, so first point is (4,6)
For 8 pound pumpkin the price is 12 dollars, so first point is (8,12)
Find the slope between these points
m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁
m = 12 - 6 / 8 -4
m = 6/4
m = 1.5
Which means that for every pound increase in weight, the price of pumpkin increases by 1.5 dollars
We have
1.234 in-----> 1+(0.234) in
we know that
1/64=0.015625
so
0.234/0.015625=14.98-----> 15
15/64-----> 0.234
therefore
1.234 in is equal to -----------> 1 15/64 in
the answer is
1 15/64 in
Set up a proportion with Katie’s height / Katie’s shadow = roller coasters height / its shadow. So it is 5 feet / 2 feet = x feet / 60 feet. To solve cross multiply so it becomes 2x = 300 and x = 150 feet
