Answer:

9 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing an equation.

The total bill is 134.03. The bill is totally paid by Marcus and the other guests. This will go on the other side of the equation.

Since we don't know how many guests there were, we can use variable x to represent the value that we're trying to find.

So here is our equation.

134.04 = 20.45 + 12.62x

Now, just solve for x, or isolate x.

Subtract 20.45 from both sides.

134.04 - 20.45 = 12.62x

Divide both sides by 12.62.

113.59/12.62 = x

Simplify.

x = 9

Since x is 9, we know that there were 9 other people at the dinner party.

A ladybug and ant move at constant speeds. The diagrams with tick marks show their positions at different times. Each tick mark
MissTica

Answer:

From the graph we can say that ant is moving faster than the ladybug

Slope of the ant's movement will be steeper than the ladybug

  • Hence<u>, </u><u>line "</u>v" denotes the speed of ant and <u>line "</u>u" denotes the speed of ladybug.

Unit rate/slope of the graph is (distance traveled/elapsed time)

  • <u>Unit rate of ant is 3/2 cm/sec</u> and <u>that of ladybug is 1 cm/sec.</u>
  • Ant takes (12×2/3) =<u> </u><u>8</u><u> </u><u>sec</u> and ladybug takes (12×1) =<u> </u><u>12</u><u> </u><u>sec</u> to travel 12 cm.

Remember ant will take less time to travel a certain distance than ladybug.
