How many 2-foot pieces can be cut from a 10-foot piece of string?

The answer is 10/2=5 pieces.

Similarly, how many 11/5 foot pieces can be cut from a 10 foot piece of pvc pipe?

10 / (11/5) = 10/2.2 = 4.545 pieces, or 4 pieces with 1.2 foot left over.

An example of a domain that can be illustrated from the information given will be D(x) = 32.

<h3>Domain and range</h3>

An example based on the information given is "A gas tank in John's car can hold 20 gallons of gas and the car gets 32 miles for every gallon".

John fills up the tank and then goes on a trip. In this case, the distance that will be travelled on one tank will be:

D(x) = 32x

In the above function, it should be noted that the number of gallons can be from 0 to 20. Since he gets 32 miles per gallon, the car can travel 640 miles.

In this case, the domain is the number of gallons that can be used. The number of miles will be the range.

Doss [256]

Answer:

y=-1/7x + 12/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by finding the slope

m=(1-0)/(-5-2)

m=-1/7

next plug the slope and the point (-5,1) into point slope formula

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y1=1

x1= -5

m=-1/7

y- 1 = -1/7(x - -5)

y-1=-1/7(x+5)

Distribute -1/7 first

y- 1=-1/7x + 5/7

Add 1 on both sides, but since its a fraction add 7/7

y=-1/7x + (5/7+7/7)

y=-1/7x+12/7

Find the slope of every line that is parallel to the line on the graph.

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

-1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

What are parallel lines?

Lines that are parallel never touch. They can extend infinitely and they will still never touch. In order for this to happen the slope of the two lines must be the same. So if we want to find the slope of every line that is parallel to the line on the graph, we simply find the slope of the line of the graph.

Finding the slope

We can find the slope using the following formula:

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Where the x and y values are derived from any given points on the line (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

Here the given points are (-5,-1) and (0,-2)

So we have (x1,y1) = (-5,-1) meaning x1 = -5 and y1 = -1

We also have (x2,y2) = (0,-2) meaning x2 = 0 and y2 = -2

Now we plug these values into the formula

Recall formula : $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

==> Plug in x1 = -5 , y1 = -1 , x2 = 0 and y2 = -2

$Slope=\frac{-2-(-1)}{0-5}$

==> simplify numerator and denominator

$slope = \frac{1}{-5}$

So the slope of the line is -1/5

This means the slope of any parallel line to that line would also have a slope of -1/5

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

25% should go

Step-by-step explanation:

If she wants to save $2,400;

Then in a month, she should save 2400/12 = 200

So now we need the amount of her monthly earnings will this savings be

That will be;

200/800 * 100%

= 1/4 * 100% = 25%
