Explain why (4, 1) is not a solution to the equation y = 3x + 1.
To determine if (4, 1) is a solution to the equation y = 3x + 1, we need to substitute the values of x and y into the equation and see if the equation holds true.
If we substitute x = 4 and y = 1 into the equation, we get:
1 = 3(4) + 1
This simplifies to:
1 = 13
Since 1 is not equal to 13, we can conclude that (4, 1) is not a solution to the equation y = 3x + 1.
Drinks at the fair cost $2.50. Use an equation to represent the relationship between the numbers of drinks bought and the cost. Define your variable and make a table to help write the equation.
Let's define the variable "d" as the number of drinks bought, and "c" as the cost.
We can create a table to show the relationship between the number of drinks and the cost:
d (number of drinks) c (cost)
1 $2.50
2 $5.00
3 $7.50
From the table, we can observe that the cost "c" is always 2.50 times the number of drinks "d".
Therefore, we can write the equation as:
c = 2.50d
