Answer:

\huge{ \boxed{ \bold{g =  - 2}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find g we have to use the formula for finding the slope of the line passing through two points that's

m =  \frac{y_2 -y_ 1}{x_2 -x_1 }  \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are (g, -1) and (2, 5) and m = 3/2

We substitute it into the equation and find g

That's

\frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{5 -  - 1}{2 - g}  \\  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{5 + 1}{2 - g }  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \frac{3}{2}  =  \frac{6}{2 - g}  \\  \\ 3(2 - g) = 6(2) \\ 6 - 3g = 12 \\  - 3g = 12 - 6 \\  - 3g = 6 \\  \\  \frac{ - 3g}{ - 3}  =  \frac{6}{ - 3}  \\  \\ g =  - 2

We have the final answer as

<h3>g = - 2</h3>

LenKa [72]

Answer:

25m + 10b = 400

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount that can be earned = $ 400

Amount earned on mowing a lawn = $ 25

Amount earned per hour on babysitting = $10

Amount earned for mowing one lawn is $ 25, so amount earned for mowing m lawns will be $ 25m

Amount earned for one hour of babysitting is $ 10, so amount earned for babysitting for b hours will be $ 10b

Total amount earned = Amount earned from mowing m lawns + Amount earned from babysitting for b hours

Using the values from above, we can set up the equation as:

400 = 25m + 10b

or

25m + 10b = 400

This equation represents the number of lawns they can mow, m, and hours they can babysit, b, to earn $400.
