Answer:
11
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the no. of helmet be x
cost of 1 helmet = $12.00
cost of x helmet = $12.00*x = $12x
Let the no. of tire pumps be y
cost of 1 tire pumps = $8.00
cost of x tire pumps = $8.00*y = $8y
Given that total no. of helmet and pump is 18
thus
x + y = 18
y = 18-x
also given
total money spent is $188
thus
12x+8y = 188
using y = 18 - x
we have
12x + 8(18-x) = 188
=> 12x+ 144 - 8x = 188
=> 4x = 188-144 = 44
=> x = 44/4 = 11
Thus, no of helmet bought by Margo is 11.
Hey There,
The equation would be y = 4x - 45
Point slope formula
(y-y1)=m(x-x1)
Plug in the numbers
(y-3)=4(x-12)
Solve for y.
4 * x = 4x
4 * -12 = -48
Bring 3 to the other side (change the sign)
-48 +3 = 45
Therefore, the equation would be y = 4x - 45
Answer:
7 2/3 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write this equation in y = mx+b form
where m = 3 ft/min and b = -105 ft
x is the number of minutes and y is the depth
y = 3 * x -105
We want to find when y = -82
-82 = 3x -105
Add 105 to each side
-82+105 = 3x-105+105
23=3x
Divide by 3
23/3 = 3x/3
23/3=x
Changing into a mixed number
3 goes into 23 7 times with 2 left over
7 2/3 minutes
3/20 is 15% so that's bigger
