Divide 276 by 3 to get 92.  Then add 92 and 92 to get 184 which is 2/3 of 276. Then subtract 20 to get 164. He read 164 pages last week. I am pretty sure this is right. 
Hope this helps!!!

Write the equation of the line in fully simplified slope-intercept form.
iren2701 [21]
Y=Mx+b

Rise / run between any two points = slope (m)
Where the line crosses the y axis is (yint) (b)

Slope is -1/2
Yint = -8

So the equation is y=(-1/2)x - 8

ikadub [295]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

720x = 5040

720 / 5040 = 7

x = 7.

A rectangular exercise mat has a perimeter of 36 feet. The length of the mat is twice the width. Write and solve an equation to
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]
<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answers are:

- Length

length=2width=12feet

- Width

width=6feet

- Area

Area=72feet^{2}

<h2>Why?</h2>

We are given the perimeter of a rectangular mat, and we are asked to find the area, and write an equation to determine the length, if feet, of the mat. To solve this problem we need to remember the equation of the perimeter of a rectangle, which is:

Perimeter=2length+2width

Using the given information we have,

36feet=2length+2width

Also, we know that the length is twice the width, so:

length=2width

Then, substituting the second equation into the first equation, we can find the width of the mat.

Substituting, we have:

36feet=2(2width)+2width

36feet=4width+2width

36feet=6width

[tex]\frac{36feet}{6} =width\\width=\frac{36feet}{6} =6feet[/tex]

Then, substituting the width into the second equation, we can find the length of the mat,

Substituting, we have:

length=2width

length=2(6feet)=12feet

Then, finding the area, we have:

A=length*width=12feet*6feet=72feet^{2}

Have a nice day!

Yolanda is filling her bathtub. The table shows the number of gallons of water in the bathtub at different times since she start
raketka [301]

Answer:

Constant of proportionality

K= 16.5 gallons per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Time t (minutes) Water g (gallons)

For t= 1, g= 16.50,

for t= 1.5 ,g= 24.75

For t= 2,g= 33

Let the function be

Gallons g= k(time t)

Where k is the constant of proportionality

16.5= k(1)....for when t= 1

24.75= k(1.5) ..for when t= 1.5

Solving gives

8.25=k(0.5)

8.25/0.5= k.

16.5 = k

K= 16.5 gallons per minute
