Set up a ratio 50 / 130 = x+19 / 78

Cross multiply:

50 * 78 = 130 * x+19

3900 = 130(x+19)

Use the distributive property:

3900 = 130x + 2470

Subtract 2470 from each side:

1430 = 130x

Divide both sides by 130

x = 1430 / 130

X = 11

The answer is B. 11

A pencil and a ruler cost 2.50 together. The ruler costs $1.00 more than the pencil. How much is the pencil

Alenkasestr [34]

P + r = 2.50
r = p + 1

p + p + 1 = 2.50
2p + 1 = 2.50
2p = 2.50 - 1
2p = 1.50
p = 1.50/2
p = 0.75 <=== pencil cost 75 cents

r = p + 1
r = 0.75 + 1
r = 1.75 .....ruler cost 1.75

Mr. Hann is trying to decide how many new copies of a book to order for his students. Each book weighs 6ounces

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

I’m afraid I can’t help you. The question makes no sense because the question doesn’t explain how many students there are. It just gives the weight of the books which I assume is useless

Help me with the work

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Option B k > 0

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

Observing the graph

The slope of the line is positive

The y-intercept is negative

we have

$3y-2x=k(5x-4)+6\\ \\3y=5kx-4k+6+2x\\ \\3y=[5k+2]x+(6-4k)\\ \\y=\frac{1}{3}[5k+2]x+(2-\frac{4}{3}k)$

The slope of the line is equal to

$m=\frac{1}{3}[5k+2]$

Remember that the slope must be positive

$5k+2> 0\\ \\k > -\frac{2}{5}$

The value of k is greater than -2/5

Analyze the y-intercept

$(2-\frac{4}{3}k) < 0\\ \\ 2 < \frac{4}{3}k\\ \\1.5 < k\\ \\k > 1.5$

1.5 is greater than zero

the solution for k is the interval ------> (1.5,∞)

therefore

must be true

k > 0
