Together it would take 3 hours.
Team A can wrap all gifts in 7 hours; thus they can wrap 1/7 of the gifts in 1 hour.

Team B can wrap all gifts in 5 hours; thus they can wrap 1/5 of the gifts in 1 hour.

1/7h + 1/5h = 1, where h is the number of hours; it equals 1 because it is 100% of the gifts;

Find a common denominator.  35 is the first thing 7 and 5 will both divide into.  Convert the fractions:
5/35h + 7/35h = 1
12/35h = 1

Divide both sides by 12/35:
12/35h ÷ 12/35 = 1 ÷ 12/35
h = 1/1 ÷ 12/35
h = 1/1 × 35/12
h = 35/12
h = 2.9
h ≈ 3

Find the slope (m) and the y-intercept (b) of the given line on the graph.
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

Slope: 1; Y-int: (0,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope is rise over run, the equation is y two minus y one divided by x two minus x one.

(3-2) / (1-0) = 1

The y-int. is where the line crosses the y-axis, or the x value is 0.

Hope this helps :)

Which two points in the graphed function have an average rate of change of 5?
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

B. points A and B

Step-by-step explanation:

"Rate of change" is just a fancy name for slope.

The question asks for points on the graph having a slope of 5.  We know a slope of 5 is a positive (goes up from left to right) and it's quite steep.

By looking at the graph, we see that to have a slope of 5, it has to take place in the first half of the graph.

Let's look at the possible options:

A. Points D and F: From point D to point F, you're going down, so the slope is negative.  NO

B. Points A and B: goes up, pretty steep.  Let's calculate the slope.

Point A: (2,1), Point B: (3,6)

Slope = (6 - 1) / (3 - 2) = 5 / 1 = 5

We found it!

C. Points B and C: goes up, pretty steep too.  Let's calculate the slope:

Point B: (3,6) , Point C: (4,9)

Slope = (9 - 6) / (4 - 3) = 3 / 1 = 3, NO, not the slope we're looking for

D. Points C and E: goes down, NO,  not what we want.
