Answer:

The number of seashells he have in his collection all together is <u>140</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Stanley has a collection of seashells. He found 35% of his collection on Florida beaches.

Stanley has 49 seashells from Florida.

Now, to find the number of seashells of his collection altogether.

Let the number of seashells all together be x.

Percentage of seashells found on Florida beaches = 35%.

Number of seashells found on Florida beaches = 49.

Now, to get the number of seashells altogether we put an equation:

35\%\ of\ x=49.

⇒ \frac{35}{100} \times x=49

⇒ 0.35\times x=49

⇒ 0.35x=49

Dividing both sides by 0.35 we get:

⇒ x=140.

Therefore, the number of seashells he have in his collection all together is 140.

Which values of m and b will create a system of equations with no solution? choose 1 options.
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

The graph of a linear equation is a straight line.  The "solution" to a system of two linear equations is the point where the two lines cross.  If the two lines are parallel, they never cross; hence parallel lines have no solution.  Two lines are parallel if they have the same slope (the m value in y = mx+b).  One of your equations is y = -2x + (you left the y-intercept out).  The slope is -2.  So any line with a slope of m = -2 will be parallel to this line and will not cross it.  The second line also needs a different value of b, the y-intercept.  Otherwise it is the same line and every point is a solution.  So if your equation is:

 

y = -2x + 1

 

Then any equation of the form y = -2x + b, b≠1 will create a system with no solution.  Hence the values of m and b are m = -2, b ≠ 1.

What is a whole number
Vlada [557]

Answer:

Whole numbers are positive numbers (this includes 0) that do not have decimals or fractions to them.

Example:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5,etc are all whole numbers, because they are positive and do not have decimals or fractions

1.25 would not be a whole number, because although it is positive, it has a decimal.
