Answer:she had $63.75 at first.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of money that she had at first.

kathy spent 3 fifths of her money on a necklace. This means that the amount of money that she spent on the necklace is

3/5 × x = 3x/5

The amount of money remaining would be

x - 3x/5 = 2x/5

She used 2 thirds of the remainder on a bracelet. This means that the amount of money that she spent on the bracelet is 2/3 × 2x/5 = 4x/15

If the bracelet costs $17.00, then

4x/15 = 17

4x = 15 × 17

4x = 255

x = 225/4

x = 63.75

What is the slope of a line that passes through the origin and point (-3 -2) a. 2/3 b. -2/3 c. 3/2 or d. -3/2
lions [1.4K]
The origin is (0,0)

slope = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(-3,-2)....x1 = -3 and y1 = -2
(0,0)...x2 = 0 and y2 = 0
now we sub
slope = (0 - (-2) / (0 - (-3) = (0 + 2) / (0 + 3) = 2/3 <=

Which one of the following pairs of sets has no members in common?
bazaltina [42]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, eliminate obvious wrong answers.

B:X

All multiples of 12 can always be divided by 3 or 4.

Then, go from top to bottom, skipping eliminated answers.

A:X

Composite: 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15

Odd: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17

Choice A has the number 9 in common between both rules.

C:_/(Imagine that's a check)

Even numbers are integers that when divided by 2, give back another integer (Zero is included in this rule). Those that don't follow this rule are considered odd numbers. Because of this, it's impossible to get an integer that is both odd <u>and</u> even.

Even: 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18

Odd: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19
