When multiplying by a number that is 1 with 0's on the end, you move the decimal to the right by how many zeros there are.
Because 10,000 has 5 0's, we move the decimal 5 places to the right.
8.88 => 88800
Y=mx+b
x=number of newspapers
37.5 earned for 5 newspapers
37.5=5m+b
earned 75 and deliverd 20 newpapers
75=20m+b
we have
37.5=5m+b and
75=20m+b
multiply first equaiton by -1 and add to other equaiton
-37.5=-5m-b
<u>75=20m+b +</u>
37.5=15m+0b
37.5=15m
divide both sides by 15
2.5=m
sub back to find b
75=2.5(20)+b
75=50+b
minsu 50 both sides
25=b
y=2.5x+25 is lnear funtion
A) How many people left?
= 75,000 x 0.12
= 9000 people left
b) How many people were still watching?
= 75,000 - 9000
= 66,000 people still watching
I hope this helps!
First since it is a triangle and it says meter square that means its an area
so the area is 1/2hb h stands for height and b stands for base
so
a=1/2bh
a=1/2(12)(9)
a=1/2(108)
a=54m^2
It says the cost of sail is $15 per square meter
so
$15*54
=$810
Why times by 54 because if 1 piece is $15 how about 54pcs?
thats why we will multiply it
