The first thing that we need to do is find the slope (m). In order to find the slope we need two points. The first point is (x1,y1) and the second point is (x2,y2). The slope is m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (1/9 - 1/8)/(-1/7 - 1/2) = (8/72 - 9/72)/
(-2/14 - 7/14) = -(1/72)/(-9/14) = 1(14)/72(9) = 7/(36)(9) = 7/324 (Wow!)

Now we can use the point slope formula to make the equation:
y - 1/8 = (7/324)(x - 1/2)  Point slope equation
y - 1/8 = (7/324)x - 7/648
y =(7/324)x - 7/648 + 81/648
y = (7/324)x +74/648
y = (7/324)x + 37/324   This is the slope intercept form
-(7/324)x + y = 37/324  This is the standard form

A boat travels 30 miles up the river in the same amount of time it takes to travel 38 miles down the same river. If the current

X miles per hour  -  <span> speed of the boat in still water
(x - 2)  -  speed up the river
(x + 2)  -  speed down the river
</span>
\frac{30}{x - 2} = \frac{38}{x + 2}
30 * (x + 2) = 38 * (x - 2)
30x + 60 = 38x - 76
- 8x = - 136
x = 17 miles per hour  -  <span>the speed of the boat in still water.</span>

A restaurant has 20 and 1/2 pounds of bananas to make smoothies a check uses 1/8 lb of bananas per smoothie. how many smoothies
torisob [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume you meant :

the restaurant has 20 1/2 pounds of bananas.

one smoothie uses 1/8 pound of bananas.

how many smoothies can be made with the amount of available bananas ?

the answer is as many as the times 1/8 fit into 20 1/2.

so, we actually calculate

(20 1/2) / (1/8)

first we will convert the mixed number into a true fraction :

20 1/2 = 40/2 + 1/2 = 41/2

so we have

41/2 / 1/8

and then, when dividing fractions we have 2 choices (they do both the same, of course, but start looking differently) :

a/b / c/d = a×d / b×c

a/b / c/d = a/b × d/c = a×d / b×c

so,

41/2 / 1/8 = 41×8 / 2×1 = 41×4 = 164

they can make 164 smoothies.
