Answer:y=5x/3 +7

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we find the slope of the line parallel. That is clearly, by rearranging, -3y= -5x + 9, and then dividing by -3, the slope is 5/3 .

Now, we know our equation is in the form of y = 5x/3 + b. Plugging in (-6,-3), we have -3 = -10 + b, so b = 7. Therefore, our equation is y= 5x/3 +7.

a museum opened at 8:00 am. in the first hour 350 people purchased admission tickets. in the 2nd hour 20% more people purchased

Levart [38]

Okay, so we already know that 350 people purchased tickets in hour 1:

17.50(350 + ?) = ?

The question states that in the 2nd hour, there was 20% more people. So basically, we solve for 120% of the people from the 1st hour:

17.50(350 + 1.2(350)) = ?

Multiply 1.2 by 350:

17.50(350 + 420) = ?

Add:

17.50(770) = ?

Multiply:

17.50(770) = 13475

$13,475 was the total amount of money.

A,B,C,D i.e. all statements are true!

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

According to question, Lynn works as a part-time vendor selling necklaces for $15 each and bangles for $10 each. She needs to earn a minimum of $300 per week to cover her expenses. The inequality for above scenario will be :

$15x + 10y\geq 300$ where, x is number of necklaces & y is number of bangles.

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 12 bangles and 12 necklaces. i.e. x=12 and y=12 , putting values inequality : $15(12) + 10(12) = 300$ which follows inequality . True statement!

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 20 bangles and 6 necklaces.

putting values inequality : $15(6) + 10(20) = 290$ which follows inequality . True statement!

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 6 bangles and 12 necklaces. putting values inequality : $15(12) + 10(6) = 240$ , which follows inequality . True statement!

Lynn will meet her goal if she sells 2 bangles and 18 necklaces.putting values inequality : $15(18) + 10(2)=290$ , which follows inequality . True statement!
