When you end up with prime numbers for example
If you factored out 12 you could say 3x4. Now 3 is a prime number so it cant be broken down any more. You can break down 4 into 2x2. 2 is a prime number so cant be broken down any further. When 12 is factored out it is 2x2x3

Which equation is in point-slope form for the given point and slope?

grin007 [14]

The equation of a straight line is y=mx+b, where m is the slope of the line.
By substituting the given information into this equation, we get:
7=(2/3×1)+b
Now solve to find b, the y intercept:
7=2/3+b
b=19/3
So the equation of the line is y=2/3x+19/3

A factory has two types of employees: line workers and managers.

Karolina [17]

The answer is D 12 This is because if there’s only 70 line workers then you would multiply 70 times85 you would subtract it by how much pay they’re making in total and then you divide that total by 120 which is how many managers there are and you would get your answer

Help me on this question! Jake can carry 6 1/4 pounds of wood in from the barn.His father can carry 1 5/7 times as much as jake.

ioda

$\text{ Jake father can carry } 10\frac{5}{7} \text{ or } \frac{75}{7} \text{ pounds }$

Solution:

From given question,

Number of pounds Jake carry = $6\frac{1}{4} \text{ pounds }$

Number of pounds his father carry is $1\frac{5}{7}$ times as much as jake

To find: Number of pounds Jake father can carry

Convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions

Multiply the whole number part by the fraction's denominator.

Add that to the numerator.

Then write the result on top of the denominator

$\rightarrow 6\frac{1}{4} = \frac{4 \times 6+1}{4} = \frac{25}{4}\\\\\rightarrow 1\frac{5}{7} = \frac{7 \times 1+5}{7} = \frac{12}{7}$

Then according to question,

$\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{12}{7} \text{ times the pounds jake carry }\\\\\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{12}{7} \times \frac{25}{4}\\\\\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{75}{7}\\\\\text{In terms of mixed fractions, }\\\\\text{Pounds father carry } = \frac{75}{7} = 10\frac{5}{7}$

$\text{ Thus, Jake father can carry } 10\frac{5}{7} \text{ or } \frac{75}{7} \text{ pounds }$
