Ok so pete lays 10 more than jim per hour

pete and jim laid same amount of tiles

j=jim's rate
p=pete's rate

6j=5p

but pete lays 10 tile per hour faster so
p=10+j

sub
6j=5(10+j)
6j=50+5j
minus 5j both sides
j=50


jim can lay at 50 tiles per hour

Answer:

y + 20 = 9(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the lie

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 2, - 20) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (9, 79)

m = \frac{79+20}{9+2} = \frac{99}{11} = 9

Using (a, b) = (- 2, - 20), then

y - (- 20) = 9(x - (- 2)), that is

y + 20 = 9(x + 2)

Maisie has three times as many CDs as Ken. ken has twice as many CDs as Jo. Jo has more than 10 CDs. What is the least number of
STatiana [176]

Answer:

Least number is 60.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of CDs has Jo be represented by x + 10. Where x = 0, 1, 2, 3....

Then, since Ken has twice as many CDs as Jo, the number of CDs that Ken has can be expressed as;

 2(x + 10) = 2x + 20

Maisie has three times as many CDs as Ken, then the number of CDs that Maisie has can be expressed as;

3(2x + 20) = 6x + 60

Thus to determine the least number of CDs that Maisie can have, let x = 0.

3(2x + 20) = 6x + 60

                 = 6(0) + 60

                 = 60

Therefore, the least number of CDs that Maisie can have is 60.
