Answer:

n = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

m = (1 - (-8)) / (n - 2)

3 = ( 1 + 8 ) / ( n - 2)

3 = 9 / ( n - 2)

n - 2 = 9 / 3

n - 2 = 3

n = 3 + 2

n = 5

Flura [38]

Answer:

h ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Hans charges $7 per hour and pays $5 in equipment fees.

$5 is fixed in this case. Let the possible number of hours be h.

According to question,

Atleast means less than equal to. So,

7h-5≤51

Add 5 to both sides.

7h+5-5 ≤ 51+5

7h ≤ 56

h ≤ 8

So, the number of hours be less than equal to 8.
