Comedians Marjorie Main and Percy Kilbride star in the 1951 movie Ma and Pa Kettle Back on the Farm. Given the task of dividing

25% of an amount of money equally between five people, Ma and Pa claim that each individual will receive 14% of the money. Ma and Pa demonstrate in three ways that 5 times 14 equals 25. Method 1: Pa divides 25 by 5 and gets 14. Method 2: Ma multiplies 5*4 and gets 20. Shen then multiples 5*1 and gets 5. Adding the two together, she gets 25. Method 3: Checking by addition - Billy adds all the 4’ s are together to get 20, then Pa adds all the 1’s to the end and gets 25. Question 1: Did Ma and Pa use math to come up with their answers? Then why didn’t they get the right answer? Question 2: Can you think of another way Billy could explain the math ( correctly) to Ma and Pa? Question 3: What is the most important thing you learned from watching this video?

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below? Graph of a line going through negative 2, 3 and 1, negative 3
V125BC [204]

Answer:

3. 2x + y = −1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line, we write it first in the slope-intercept form:

y=mx+q

where

m is the slope

q is the y-intercept

From the graph, we see that the line crosses the y-axis at y = -1, so the y-intercept is -1:

q=-1

Now we have to find the slope, by calculating the rate of change of the line through 2 points:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Taking the two points at (-2,3) and (1,-3), we find:

m=\frac{-3-3}{1-(-2)}=\frac{-6}{3}=-2

So the equation of the line is

y=-2x-1

Now we have to re-arrange it in the standard form, so in the form

ax+bx=c

where a, b and c are integer numbers.

To do that, we simply add +2x on both sides of the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, and we get:

y+2x=-1

So, option 3).

koban [17]

Answer:

(4,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

plug in and simplify;

y+2=-3(x-4)

-2+2=-3(x-4)

McKenzie buys 250 shares of stock for $12 a share and pays a 2% commision. She sells the stock 3 years later for $18 a share and
Artemon [7]
250 shares for $ 12 per share......250 * 12 = 3000
plus the 2% commission......3000(1.02) = 3060...so the commission is $ 60

she then sells her stock (250 shares) for $ 18 a share....
250 * 18 = 4500
plus the 1% commission....4500(1.01) = 4545...so the commission is $ 45

net proceeds is the amount received by the seller after all costs and expenses are deducted...

expenses : 3000 + 60 + 45 = 3105
revenue : 4500

net proceeds = 4500 - 3105 = $ 1395 <==
