Answer:
Let 'x' and 'y' be two different numbers.
Leila says that 75% of a number will always be greater than 50% of a number. The inequality that represents this statement is the following:
0.75x > 0.5y
Let x = 100 and y=200. We have that:
0.75(100) > 0.5(200)
75 > 100 ❌ INCORRECT ❌
Given that we found a case in which 75% of a number is not greater than 50% of a number, we can conclude that Leila's claim is incorrect.

Answer:
The price of a drink = $4
The price of a bag of popcorn = $5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p represent popcorn and d represent drink
<u>Harper bought 10 bags of popcorn and 6 drinks and paid $79 ➡ 10p + 6d = $79</u>
<em>Damian bought 3 bags of popcorn and 5 drinks and paid $36.50 ➡ 3p + 5d = $36.50</em>
Now multiply first equation by -3 and second equation by 10
-3 × (10p + 6d) = $79 ➡ -30p - 18d = -$237
10 × (3p + 5d) = $36.50 ➡ 30p + 50d = $365
Now add the new equationd
30p + 50d -30p - 18d = $365 - $237 (-30p will eliminate 30p)
32d = $128 divide both sides of the equation by 32
32 ÷ 32d = 32 ÷ $128 ➡ d = 4
If d = 4 that means a drink costs $4 we can use this information to find the price of a bag of popcorn
3p + 5d = $36.50 (replace d with 4)
3p + 4×5 = $36.50
3p + 20 = $36.50
3p = $36.50 - 20
3p = 16.50 divide both sides by 3
p = $5.5
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we must pay attention to the following data supplied:
- f It is the number of figurines that remain to be painted.
- t amount of time, in minutes, that Colin spends painting
- Colin takes 20 minutes painting each figurines.
- After painting 60 min, he still has 9 figurines left. f (60) = 9
If he takes 20 minutes painting 1, it means that in 60 minutes he has painted 3 and he has 9 left.
Then, at the beginning he has 9 +3 figurines to be painted.

With these two points we can find the function:
If m is the slope of the line, then:

Where by definition 
Finally the formula is:

I think the points given here are plotted linearly:
FGHI. in this case, we can tell that FG + GH + HI = FI. substituting to the expression devised, 2 units + GH + 1 unit = 7 units. This is equal to 3 units + GH = 7 units. GH is then equal to 4 units.
