Algebra- you make a large pot of soup. you freeze the soup in small and medium containers. a small container holds 4 ounces and a medium container holds 6 ounces. the soup can fill 6 small containers and 10 medium containers. a. write an equation in standard form that models the possible combinations of small and medium containers that the soup can fill. b. graph the equation from part (a) c. find four possible combination.

A. Let us say that:

s = number of small containers

m = number of medium containers

From the given data, the total volume of soup is:

total soup = 4 ounces * 6 + 6 ounces * 10 = 84 ounces

So the equation is:

4s + 6m = 84

B. We rewrite the equation explicit to one variable, here we choose s:

4s = 84 – 6m

s = 21 – 1.5m

Then we assign several values for m starting at 0 to get the corresponding value of s then plot the graph. See the graph attached.

C. From the graph, we choose the pair of s and m that are whole numbers. The four possible combinations are:

21 small containers, 0 medium containers

15 small containers, 4 medium containers

9 small containers, 8 medium containers

3 small containers, 12 medium containers

answer: 230 miles ( vote ! )

step-by-step explanation:

180.39 minus 17.99 equals 162.4

then divide 162.4 by .80 to get 230
