It will take them 3/4 of an hour together.

Camille can mop and vacuum 1/2 of the house per hour.
Lawrence can mop and vacuum 1/2 of the house per hour.
Gaston can mop and vacuum 1/3 of the house per hour.

Working at this rate for x amount of time, they can all three complete 100% of the job:

1/2x+1/2x+1/3x=1

Combining like terms,
1 1/3x = 1
3/3x + 1/3x = 1
4/3x = 1

Divide both sides by 4/3:
4/3x÷4/3 = 1÷4/3
x = 1/1÷4/3
x = 1/1×3/4
x = 3/4

\frac{2n-7}{3} = 15

2n - 7 × 1 = 15 × 3

2n - 7 = 45

2n = 45 + 7

2n = 52

n = 26

What is the slope of the line?
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The slope of the line must be 3

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

step 1

we know that

The volume of a rectangular prism is equal to

V_r_p=Bh ----> equation A

where

B is the area of the base of the prism

h is the height of the rectangular prism

step 2

The volume of a square pyramid is equal to

V_s_p=\frac{1}{3}Bh -----> equation B

where

B is the area of the square base of pyramid

h is the height of the pyramid

step 3

substitute equation A in equation B

V_s_p=\frac{1}{3}V_r_p

Find the relationship between the volume of  a rectangular prism and the volume of a square pyramid

\frac{V_r_p}{V_s_p}=3

therefore

The slope of the line must be 3

let's check it

To solve for the slope of the line, you must choose two coordinates first and use the formula

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

Choosing the points (2,6) and (3,9)

substitute

m=\frac{9-6}{3-2}=3 ----> is correct

The annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of a country is the value of all of the goods and services produced in the country durin
almond37 [142]
Year        GDP
  y           (billion $)

1985       577

1986       577+ 3.2% of 577 = 577 * 1.032

1987       577* 1.032 + 3.2% of 577 * 1.032 = 577 * (1.032)^2

1988       577 * (1.032)^3

1989       577 * (1.032)^4

....           .... => model GDP = 577 * (1.032)^ (y - 1985)

Then, for GDP = $3.4 trillion = $3400 billion =>

3400 = 577 (1.032)^ (y - 1985)

Divide both sides by 577:

(1.032)^ (y - 1985) = 3400 / 577 = 5.892548

Apply logarith to both sides:

(y - 1985) log (1.032) = log 5.892548

=> y - 1985 = log (5.892548) / log(1.032) = 56.3 years

=> y = 1985 + 56.3 = 2041.3

Answer: 2041
