16 = 2/5
16 ÷ 2 = 2/5 ÷ 2/1
8 = 1/5
8 * 5 = 1/5 * 5

Let

x--------> total number of brownies made for the party

we know that

\frac{2}{5}x=16

Solve for x

\frac{2}{5}x=16\\ \\2x=5*16\\ \\2x=80\\ \\x=40\ brownies

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

40\ brownies

Can someone write the point slope equation
valentinak56 [21]
Since you have the slope, you can start your equation with y= -8/7x +b. To find b, plug the X value for the point you were given in for the X (-8/7•4) you get -32/7 or -4.57. Then you take the given Y value(4) and subtract the number you just found (4-(-4.57)). You get 8.57. That means your equation is Y= -8/7 + 8.57

Susan is looking to hire a cleaning company to clean her house every week. One cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the
kirill [66]

Answer:

<h3>A. 1 hour</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If one cleaning company's cost can be calculated by the expression 75 + 50x, where x is the amount of hours they spend cleaning and another cleaning company's cost can be calculated using the expression 50 + 75x, then to calculate how long each company will have to clean to cost the same amount, we will equate both expression of the company cost and solve for x as shown;

On equating:

75 + 50x,  =  75x + 50

collect like terms'

50x-75x = 50-75

-25x = -25

divide both sides by -25

-25x/-25 = -25/-25

x = 1

hence the number of hours each company will have to clean to cost the same amount is 1 hour

Find the domain of the function f(x) = 7x2 + 8x - 15.
amm1812

Answer:

Domain is all real numbers or (negative infinity, positive infinity)

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain is all values of <em>x</em> (inputs) that will work with the function. Since a parabola has no limits for <em>x</em>, and all numbers work for <em>x</em>, then the domain can be any number. That leaves us with All Real Numbers as our answer.
