Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Fraction of names called last week = 1/4 of a page
Fraction called this week = 1/2 of a page
The number of pages worth of people called ;
This is an addition problem, as the total will be the sum. Of the fractions called this week and last week
Hence,
Total page worth of names called :
(1/4 + 1/2) = (1 + 2) / 4 = 3/4
There are 3 in. of snow on the ground when it begins to snow 0.5 in./h.
Initial depth of snow = 3 in.
it begins to snow 0.5 in./h. The constant rate of snow is 0.5. So slope = 0.5
Let x be the number of hours
y be the total depth of the snow
To frame linear equation we use y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept (initial depth of snow)
We know m=0.5 and b=3
Replace it in the equation
y = 0.5x + 3
The linear equation that represents the total depth of the snow(y), in inches, after x hours
is y= 0.5x + 3
Answer:
the answer is (x,y)=(-2,-3)
