A because two negatives make a positive
Answer:
7 2/3 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write this equation in y = mx+b form
where m = 3 ft/min and b = -105 ft
x is the number of minutes and y is the depth
y = 3 * x -105
We want to find when y = -82
-82 = 3x -105
Add 105 to each side
-82+105 = 3x-105+105
23=3x
Divide by 3
23/3 = 3x/3
23/3=x
Changing into a mixed number
3 goes into 23 7 times with 2 left over
7 2/3 minutes
12+8+8=28
8 students are wearing a blue shirt so the probability is 8/28
