Answer:

90 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for graph.

First, we need to determine the slope.

When y = 900, x = 0

When y = 600, x = 30

The slope is then calculated as:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (600 - 900)/(30 - 0)

m = -300/30

m = -10

Next, we determine the equation of the line using

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

So, we have:

y - 900 = -10(x - 0)

y - 900 = -10x

y = 900 - 10x

When the container is empty, y = 0.

So, we have:

0 = 900 - 10x

Collect Like Terms

10x = 900

Solve for x

x = 900/10

x = 90

Joe bought 5 apples and 4 bananas for $6. Dawn bought 3 apples and 6 bananas for $6.30. How much foes each apple and each banana
zepelin [54]

Answer:

Apple = $0.6

Banana = $0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us represent Apple by A and Banana by B

For Joe,

5A + 4B = 6       (1)

For Dawn

3A + 6B = 6.3     (2)

To eliminate A, Multiply equation (1) by 3 and equation (2) by 5

15A + 12B = 18          (3)

15A + 30B = 31.5       (4)

subtracting equation (4) from (3)

15A - 15A +12B - 30B = 18 - 31.5

-18B = -13.5

divide through by -18

-18B/-18 = -13.5/-18

B = 0.75

substitute 0.75 in equation (1)

5A + 4B = 6

5A + 4(0.75) = 6

5A + 3 = 6

subtract 3 from both sides

5A + 3 - 3 = 6 - 3

5A = 3

divide through by 5

5A/5 = 3/5

A = 0.6

A triangle has side lengths of 13, 9, and 5. Is the triangle a right triangle? Explain.
valentina_108 [34]

Answer: This triangle is <u>not</u> a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

In a right triangle, the hypotenuse(c) is always the longest side and a and b are the shorter sides.  Thus, 5^2+9^2=13^2.  Simplify this to get 25+81=169, then 106=169.  Because 106 does <u>not</u> equal 169, it is not a right triangle.
