Q. P=192+425d P=\frac{19}{2}+\frac{4}{25} d \newlineThe amount of paint, P P , in pints, that an art studio can buy with d d dollars is given by the equation. What is the best interpretation of 425 \frac{4}{25} as shown in the equation?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) The paint costs 425 \frac{4}{25} of a dollar per pint.\newlineB) One dollar can buy 425 \frac{4}{25} of a pint of paint.\newline55 of 1010
  1. Understand the equation: Understand the equation.\newlineThe equation P=192+425dP=\frac{19}{2}+\frac{4}{25}d represents the amount of paint PP in pints that can be bought with dd dollars. The term 192\frac{19}{2} is a constant, which means it's a fixed amount of paint that can be bought regardless of the amount of money spent. The term 425d\frac{4}{25}d represents the variable part of the paint that can be bought, depending on how many dollars are spent.
  2. Interpret the coefficient of dd: Interpret the coefficient of dd. The coefficient 425\frac{4}{25} in front of the variable dd represents the rate at which paint can be bought per dollar. This means for every dollar spent, 425\frac{4}{25} pints of paint can be bought.
  3. Choose the correct interpretation: Choose the correct interpretation.\newlineBased on the equation, the coefficient (4)/(25)(4)/(25) is the amount of paint in pints that can be bought with one dollar. Therefore, the correct interpretation is that one dollar can buy (4)/(25)(4)/(25) of a pint of paint.
