Hi

312 bolts ⇒ 30 min
260 bolts ⇒ x min

312x = 30·(260)
312x = 7800
x = 7800/312
x = 25 min

Answer: 25 minutes

It would take 26 minutes to produce about 260 bolts

How I did it-
312/30= 10.4
10.4= Bolts per minute You have to round= 10
260/10= 26
26 minutes

Hillary needs to know if the triangle shown is a right triangle. Which equation should she use to help?

Sonja [21]

Answer:

a2+b2=c2

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle is a triangle in which one of the angles is a 90∘ angle. A triangle can be determined to be a right triangle if the side lengths are known. If the lengths satisfy the Pythagorean Theorem (a2+b2=c2) then it is a right triangle.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST Mr. and Mrs. Bailey hope to send their son to college in eleven years. How much money should they invest no

Ronch [10]

Mr. and Mrs. Bailey need to invest $2906.50 so as to send their son to college.

<h3>Compound interest</h3>

Compound interest is given by:

$A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}$

where A is the amount after t years, P is initial amount, r is the rate and n is the times compounded per period

Given that n = 1, r = 9% = 0.09, A = $7500 t = 11. Hence:

$7500=P(1+\frac{0.09}{1} )^{1*11}\\\\P=\$2906.50$

Mr. and Mrs. Bailey need to invest $2906.50 so as to send their son to college.

Raphael graphed the system of equations shown. y = – 3 y = x – 0.8 What is the best approximation for the solution to this syste

Ber [7]

Given ---›

y = -3

&

y = x - 0.8

So,
=> x = y + 0.8

=> x = -3 + 0.8

=> x = -2.2

Therefore, the best approximation for the solution to this system of equations is = (–2.2, –3)

A line passes through the point (5,-11) and has a slope of -2 Find an equation of this line.

Vsevolod [243]

Formula: y = mx + b

m being the slope

Slope given: -2, plug it in

Y = -2x + b

Now find y intercept (b)

Plug in the point (5,-11)

-11 = -2(5) + b

-11 = -10 + b, b = -1

Solution: y = -2x -1
