Answer: The answer is (A) y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-2.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Michael cuts a piece of wood for a project . The first cut is shown in the given figure and represented by the equation y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x+6. The second cut should be parallel to the first one and will pass through the point (0, -2). We are to find the equation of the second cut.

The equation of the first cut is

y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x+6.

So, slope will be

m_1=-\dfrac{1}{3}.

Since the second cut is parallel to the first one, so the slope of the second cut will be equal to the slope of the first one. Also, the second cut passes through the point (0, -2), so its equation will be

y-(-2)=-\dfrac{1}{3}(x-0)\\\\\Rightarrow y+2=-\dfrac{1}{3}x\\\\\Rightarrow y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x-2.

Thus, (A) is the correct option.

According to the US department of labor, total employment is expected to increase from 146 million in 2000 to 168 million in 201
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

The percent increase in the employment from the year 2000 to year 2010 is 15.07\%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Employment in the year 2000 =146 million.

Employment in the year 2010 =168 million.

To find: The percent increase in the employment.

Solution: We have,

Employment in the year 2000 =146 million.

Employment in the year 2010 =168 million.

Increase in employment =168-146=22 million.

Percent increase =\frac{\textrm{Increase in employment}}{\textrm{Original employment}}\times100\%

Percent increase =\frac{22}{146}\times100\%=15.07\%

Hence, the percent increase in the employment from the year 2000 to year 2010 is 15.07\%.

Rita makes and sells necklaces. The materials to make each necklace cost $2.75. Last week she made 8 necklaces and wants to make
Tresset [83]

Answer:

The error she made was that she was adding x and 2.75. She should subtract 2.75 from x.

Another mistake that she made was that she sold each for $7 assuming that she would make a profit of 78, but she should see each necklace for $12.5 so that she could make a profit of $78.

Step-by-step explanation:

The error she made was that she was adding x and 2.75.

She should write the equation as 8 (x - 2.75) = 78; as she spends $2.75 to make a necklace.

By using the correct equation: 8 (x - 2.75) = 78

=> 8x - 22 = 78

=> 8x = 78 + 22

=> 8x = 100

=> x = 100/8

=> x = 12.5

Another mistake that she made was that she sold each for $7 assuming that she would make a profit of 78, but she should see each necklace for $12.5 so that she could make a profit of $78.

Hope this helps you.
