The leas amount of large plates that would have to be purchased is 24

So the person would buy 2 packs of large plates and 3 packs of small plates.


How to: the way to find this out, is to find the first multiplication of 8 that is a number equally divided by 12. So you go:
8x1 = 8 (less than 12, so not enough)
8x2 = 16 (more than 12, but still not enough to divide equally)
8x3 = 24 (bingo!)

Hope it helps.

What is the slope of the line in the graph?
Sedbober [7]
<h3>Answer:   1</h3>

========================================================

Explanation:

Pick any two points you want from the blue line. I'll pick (0,1) and (1,2)

Apply the slope formula to those points

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (2-1)/(1-0)

m = 1/1

m = 1

The slope is 1.

Notice how if we're at (0,1), then we move up 1 and over to the right 1 to arrive at (1,2).

slope = rise/run = 1/1

rise = 1, run = 1

The price for the items ordered at lunch was $23.45. How much would the price be after tax and tip if the tax rate is 8% and you
kiruha [24]
Cost of items = $23.45

Tax = 8% of $23.45 = 0.08*23.45 = $1.88
Tip = 20% of $23.45 = 0.2*23.45 = $4.69

Total cost = 23.45 + 1.88 + 4.69 = 30.02

Answer: $30.02

The function g(x) = 12,500(0.91)x represents the value of a piece of farm equipment after x years. Approximately when will its v
topjm [15]

Answer:

B. 7.3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is wrong. The correct function is :

g(x)=12500(0.91)^{x}

We have the function g(x) that represents the value of a piece of farm equipment after x years.

This means that when x=0 its original value is :

g(0)=12500(0.91)^{0}=12500

Now we want to calculate approximately when will its value be half its original value. Then, we write :

\frac{12500}{2}=6250

6250 is half of its original value. We need to find x that satisfies the following equation :

g(x)=6250=12500(0.91)^{x}

Solving for x :

6250=12500(0.91)^{x} ⇒

0.5=(0.91)^{x}

Now we apply natural logarithm to each side of the equation :

ln(0.5)=ln[(0.91)^{x}]

Using logarithm properties :

ln(0.5)=ln[(0.91)^{x}] ⇒

ln(0.5)=x[ln(0.91)]

x=\frac{ln(0.5)}{ln(0.91)} ⇒

x ≅ 7.3496

The correct option is B. 7.3 years

What is the x intercept of y=x+3
OleMash [197]
To find the x intercept just substitute your y value for 0 then solve for x.

So you get 0= x+3 and then you get x=-3 which is at (-3,0).
