Answer:
The correct statements are :
1. The value of mx will change.
2. The value of m will change.
3. The value of mx+b will decrease.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is as shown in the attached figure.
Todd needs x ounces of almonds, which are priced at m dollars per ounce in the baking section. So, price of x ounces becomes = mx
The total cost of the other ingredients is b dollars.
Hence, total cost is given as = mx+b
Now, Todd later finds almonds in the bulk section that are half the price of those in the baking section.
So, now price = m/2
And total price for 'x' ounce = (mx/2 + b) dollars.
So, if Todd purchases the almonds in the bulk section, the total cost will decrease.
The correct statements are :
1. The value of mx will change.
2. The value of m will change.
3. The value of mx+b will decrease.
