Below is the solution:

There are two equations to be solved here.  The first one we assign variables to the home runs Peter hits, P, and Alice hits, A. P=2*(A-6) The second equation is the sum of both players home runs.P + A = 18Solving for P yieldsP=18-A We substitute the solution for P into the first equation and solve for A.(18-A) = 2*(A-6)18 - A = 2A - 123A = 30A = 10 Now that A is known, we can plug it into either equations for P to find how many home runs Peter hitsP=18 - (10) = 8orP=2((10)-4) = 8

A line’s equation is given in point-slope form:<br> y−6=(−23)(x+6)<br> This line’s slope is?
Nikolay [14]

The slope of the line is -23

<h3>How to determine the slope of the line?</h3>

The line’s equation is given in point-slope form:

y − 6 = (−23)(x + 6)

The line’s equation in point-slope is represented as:

y − y1 = m(x - x1)

Where

m represents the slope

By comparing y − y1 = m(x - x1) and y − 6 = (−23)(x + 6), we have

m = -23

Hence. the slope of the line is -23

Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

2x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

If you're going to double x^2, you just need to multiply it by 2. You can just put the 2 in front of the x^2 because the order of operations says to do exponents before multiplication.

One of your employees is bidding on a carpet installation job. They estimate that it will take 3 hours to install 12 square yard
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

No, the bid is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of your employees is bidding on a carpet installation job.

They estimate that it will take 3 hours to install 12 square yards of carpeting.

we know that 1 square yard= 9 square foot.

12 square yard= 12×9 square foot=108 square foot

i.e. it takes 3 hours to carpet 108 square foot.

Hence time taken to carpet 1 square foot= \dfrac{3}{108} hour

Now the dimension of room is:

11' 6"× 12' 9" i.e. we convert both the units to foot as:

1 foot= 12 inch

11'6"=11+(6/12)=11.5  foot.

and 12'9"=12+(9/12)=12.75 foot.

Hence, dimension of room=11.5 foot×12.75 foot

Hence area of room=11.5×12.75=146.625 square foot.

Time to carpet 146.625 square foot=

\dfrac{3}{108}\times 146.625 hour

=4.0729 hour

But it is given that it takes 12.3 hours to install the carpet.

Hence, the calculations were wrong.
