The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2
You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.
Answer: Most Viable: On a coordinate plane, a straight line with a positive slope begins at point (0, 0), and ends at point (2.5, 5).
Also possible, but only if someone scoops exact amounts (maybe pre-packaged for people who don't want to do their own scooping.): On a coordinate plane, blue diamonds appear at points (0, 0), (1, 2), (2, 4).
Step-by-step explanation:
The line beginning at (0,0) ending at (2.5, 5) represents all the prices for any amount that the customer scoops. for example, $5 for 2 1/2 pounds or $1 for 1/2 pound or $2 for 1 pound would all be represented in the graphed line.
The graphs with negative values don't make sense. You can't scoop negative pounds!

Translation of 7 units to the right ⇒ subtract 7 units to the argument ⇒ f(x-7)
Translation of 5 units up ⇒ add 5 units to the function ⇒ f(x) + 5
g(x) = f (x-7) + 5 = (x-7)^2 + 5
The subtraction of 7 units to the argument of the function (this is x) translates the function 7 units to the right.
Adding 5 units to the function f, translates the graph 5 units up.
Sizes = Small, Medium and Large, so they has 3 choices for size.
Crust = Thin or thick for each size, so they have 2 choices for crust.
Topping = Tomato or meatball for each one, so they have 2 choices for toppings.
The answer would be:
<span>Three choices for size, two choices for crust, and two choices for topping</span>
<u>Answer:</u> Greta is correct.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Greta is correct sine you can substitute different number of people for each of the values of and y and check that each person will still plant 4 trees.
For example:
4x = 4(1) = 4 trees; and
4 x 5 = 20
but you should follow a certain pattern to increase the value of x, such that every foe every value of x, one person is able to plant 4 trees.
