Let x= number of board games
<span>20x=10410+2.65x </span>
<span>-2.65 -2.65 </span>
<span>17.35x=10410 </span>
<span>/17.35 /17.35 </span>
<span>x=600 </span>
<span>You would need to sell at least 600 board games to break even</span>

How to cross multiple 3/5 by 10

Vika [28.1K]

Here is you're answer:

In order to cross multiply you have to multiply the numerator and denominator of the first fraction by the bottom number of the second fraction and see if the equation is still true:

$\frac{3}{5} \times 10$
$\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{10}{1}$
$3 \times 1 = 5 \times 10$
Solve if you like:
$3 \times 1 = 3$
$5 \times 10 = 50$
$= \frac{4}{50}$

Therefore you're answer is "3 × 1 = 5 × 10."

Hope this helps!

Please help!!! I will mark someone brainliest!

Answer:

a = 8, b = $\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the exponential function

f(x) = a $b^{x}$

To find a and b use the given coordinate points on the graph

Using (0, 8 ), then

8 = a $b^{0}$ [ $b^{0}$ = 1 ] , then

a = 8

f(x) = 8 $b^{x}$

Using (2, 18 ) , then

18 = 8b² ( divide both sides by 8 )

$\frac{18}{8}$ = b² , that is

b² = $\frac{9}{4}$ ( take the square root of both sides )

b = $\sqrt{\frac{9}{4} }$ = $\frac{3}{2}$

Thus

f(x) = 8 $(\frac{3}{2}) ^{x}$

Find the equation of a line that contains the points (3,7) and (-6, 4). Write the equation in slope-intercept form, using

NikAS [45]

Answer:

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(3,7)(-6,4)$

Step 1. Find the slope (by using the slope-formula)

m = slope

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\frac{4-7}{-6-3}$

$m=\frac{-3}{-9}$

$m=\frac{3}{9}$

$m=\frac{1}{3}$

Step 2. Write the equation (using the slope and the points)

Here's how to do it:

Slope-intercept Formula $y=mx+b$ whrere m = slope and b = y-intercept

Plug in the slope into the Slope-intercept Formula

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+b$

Find the y-intercept (b) by using a point and substituting their x and y values

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+b$

Point: (3, 7)

$7=\frac{1}{3} (3)+b$

$7=1+b$

$b=7-1$

$b=6$

Step 3. Write the equation in Slope-intercept form

$y=mx+b$

$y=\frac{1}{3} x+6$

Emily has the following grades in his math class: Homework grades: 80, 100, 90, Quiz grades: 84, 90, 72, Test grades: 64,

Bess [88]

Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Homework mean x 10%: (80+100+90)/3 x 0.1 = 90 x 0.1 = 9

Quiz mean x 25%: (84+90+72)/3 x 0.25 = 20.5

Test mean x 45%: (64+72)/2 x 0.45 = 30.6

Sum of means/percentage of grade: 9 + 20.5 + 30.6 = 60.1/.8 = 75.125
