Hello!

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

<em><u>A. -2/3</u></em>

<em><u>*The answer must have a fraction.*</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope: \frac{Y^2-Y^1}{X^2-X^1}=\frac{rise}{run}

\frac{1-7=-6}{10-1=9}=\frac{-6}{9}=\frac{-6/3}{9/3}=\frac{-2}{3}

<u><em>Slope is -2/3</em></u>

<u><em>Answer: -2/3</em></u>

Hope this helps!

Thanks!

Have a great day!

At a ceramic shop, each cup is $6.30 cheaper than each plate. If you totally spent $28.50 for 5 cups and 3 plates, what is the p
Alex Ar [27]
Let
x-------------> <span>the price of each cup
</span>y-------------> the price of each plate

we know that

5x+3y=28.50----------> equation 1
and
x=y-6.30--------------> equation 2

I substitute 2 in 1
5*(y-6.30)+3y=28.50---------> 5y-31.5+3y=28.5-----> 8y=60
y=7.5
x=y-6.3---------> x=7.5-6.3---------> x=1.2

the answer is
the price of each cup is $1.2
 the price of each plate is $7.5

brilliants [131]

Answer: A 4 side dice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Benjamin has 4 possible homerooms with the same probability. This means that every homeroom has a 1/4 = 0.25 (or 25%) probability of getting chosen.

You could emulate this situation with a 4 sided dice (are like little pyramids) where each side of the dice would represent the selection of one of the homerooms.

Fabio and Gwen are saving money to buy a new gaming station. They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station. Gwen we
vaieri [72.5K]

x represents the number of lawns weeded by Gwen and y represents the number of dogs walked by Fabio.

Gwen charges $12 each time she weeds a yard and Fabio charges $9 each time he walks a dog.

So, for x number of weeds, Gwen earned 12x and for y number of dogs walked, Fabio earned 9y.

They need at least $510 to purchase the new gaming station.

Therefore,

12x + 9y ≥ 510

Also, the number of dog walks that Fabio has scheduled should not be more than twice the number of yards Gwen has scheduled to weed.

Therefore,

y ≤ 2x

Also, Fabio will walk at least 25 dogs.

Therefore,

y ≥ 25

Hence, the constraints are:

12x + 9y ≥ 510

y ≤ 2x

y ≥ 25
