Part A: 5 is the coefficient, w is the variable, 50 is the constant
Part B: 10 x 5 = 50 + 2 x 20 = 40+ 50 = $140
Part C: the constant,50,would change and become 85. Hope this helps :)
Answer: The time is takes to cook a turkey is a function of the turkey's weight.
In a function, there is an input and there is an output. The idea of a function is that each individual input is changed into an output.
The time it takes to cook a turkey depends on the size of the turkey.
Smaller turkeys would take less time to cook and larger turkeys would take longer to cook.
So if you start with the turkeys weight, you could determine how long it would need to cook. This is an example of a function.
Let's define our variables before anything else:
Kas = S
Jaspar = R
Jae = E
$400 is divided between Kas, Jaspar and Jae
This means S + R + E = 400
Kas has twice as much as Jaspar
This means that S = 2R
Jaspar has three times as much as Jae
This means that R = 3E
Because both of our smaller formulas have R, let's replace everything in the first formula with R
S + R + E = 400
plug in values
2R + R + R/3 = 400
multiply everything by 3 to get rid of the denominator
6R + 3R + R = 1200
add
10R = 1200
divide
R = 120
So Jaspar receives $120
