41 guests / 8 plates = 5.125 packs

Since you cant buy .125 of a pack, Mary jane has to purchase 6 packs.

Answer:

<h2>6 packs</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>41 guests  </u>   =  5.125 packs

8 plates

5 x 8 = 40 plates

6 x 8 = 48 plates

therefore Mary Jane should buy the 6 packs more than enough for her 41 guests.

Jim is enclosing a rectangular garden with 170 feet of fencing. The length of the garden is 10 feet more than twice it’s width,
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

1,500\ ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

L ----> the length of the rectangular garden in feet

w ---> the width of  the rectangular garden in feet

step 1

Find the width

we know that

The perimeter of the rectangular garden is

P=2(L+W)

P=170\ ft

so

170=2(L+W)

Simplify

85=(L+W) ----> equation A

L=2W+10 ----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for W

85=(2W+10+W)

85-10=3W

3W=75

W=25\ ft

Find the value of L

L=2(25)+10=60\ ft

step 2

Find the area

we know that

The area of the rectangular garden is

A=(LW)

substitute the values

A=(60)(25)=1,500\ ft^2

I need to complete the equation of the line through (3 -1) and (4 7). I am really stumped on this topic, please explain the proc
Nana76 [90]

Assuming you want the equation in slope intercept form, you first need to use slope formula to find the slope.

\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

Plug in the coordinates that you have, (3,-1) and (4,7), for the x and y values respectively.

\frac{-1-7}{3-4}

Which reduces to 8/1=8.

The slope of your equation is 8.

Slope intercept form is: y=mx+b. m is your slope and b is your y-intercept, x and y stay unchanged.

Plug the slope in:

y=8x+b.

Now, you can plug one of the sets of coordinates into the x and y of the equation to find b. I'm using (3,-1).

-1=8(3)+b

-1=24+b

Subtract 24 from both sides.

-25=b

Now plug this into the equation!

y=8x-25 is your final equation.

I hope this helps :)
