Answer:

Fraction=\frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of students=10

Students wearing brown shoes=1

Students wearing black shoes=7

Number of students wearing black or brown shoes=1+7=8

Number of students not wearing brown or black=10-8=2

Fraction of students not wearing brown or black=\frac{2}{10}=\frac{1}{5}

Find the equation of the line<br> passing through the points 1,-5)<br> and (9,11).<br> y = 2x + [?]
Naily [24]

Answer:

y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Looks like we already have the slope of this line:  It is 2.  Working with the point (1, -5), we have x = 1 and y = -5 and can from this info easily find the y-intercept, b:

y = mx + b becomes

y  = 2x + b, which in turn becomes

-5 = 2(1) + b, or

b = -7,

and so the desired equation is y = 2x - 7

If a cylindrical tank holds 100,00 gallons of water which can be drained from thebottom of the tank in an hour, then Torricelli’
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

First, I think the right formula is:

V(t) = 100,000(1-\frac{t}{60} ),20\leq t\leq 60

A) We first derive the formula given above:

V'(t)=-\frac{100000}{60}

V'(t) represent the drain rate of the tank volume.

B) the units is: gallons/time

C) at V'(10) = 100000/60 = 1666.66 gallons/time.

because the formula V'(t) is constant so it doesn't depend of time.
