Aaron tracks the time it takes him to mow lawns by writing coordinate points relating x, the time in hours it takes to mow a law

n, and y, the area of land mowed in acres. Two of his points are (3, 1.5) and (5, 2.5). Which statement describes the slope of the line through these two points? It takes Aaron about 1 hour to mow 2 acres. Aaron’s rate for mowing lawns is 0.5 acres per hour. The ratio of acres to time is 5 acres to 3 hours. The rate to mow a lawn is 0.6 hours per acre

Answer:

Slope of this line is given by:

<em>Aaron’s rate for mowing lawns is 0.5 acres per hour</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that time is tracked by Aaron related to x coordinate.

and the area of land mowed in acres is related to y coordinate.

Two of his points are given as:

(3, 1.5) and (5,2.5)

We know that the coordinates are represented in the form of (x,y)

i.e. first coordinate represents x coordinate and

second coordinate represents y coordinate.

So, it can be observed that:

x_1=3, y_1=1.5\\x_2=5, y_2=2.5

Change in x coordinate = x_2-x_1=5-3 = 2

i.e. total time taken is 2 hours.

Change in y coordinate = y_2-y_1=2.5-1.5 = 1

i.e. total land mowed taken is 1 acre.

In other words, <em>it takes 2 hours for Aaron to mow 1 acre of land.</em>

So, "option 1)  It takes Aaron about 1 hour to mow 2 acres." is incorrect.

<u>Rate of mowing</u> lawn is the <em>land mowed by Aaron in 1 hour</em>.

Land mowed in 2 hours = 1 acre

Land mowed in 1 hours = \frac{1}{2} acre i.e. 0.5 acre

Also, slope of a line is given as:

m = \dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Here y_2 - y_1 = 1

x_2 - x_1 = 2

As per formula:

m = \dfrac{1}{2} = 0.5

So, option 2) Aaron’s rate for mowing lawns is 0.5 acres per hour.

PLEASE HELP ASAP THANK YOU

<span>Simplifying 2x + 18y = 36 Solving 2x + 18y = 36 Solving for variable 'x'. Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '-18y' to each side of the equation. 2x + 18y + -18y = 36 + -18y Combine like terms: 18y + -18y = 0 2x + 0 = 36 + -18y 2x = 36 + -18y Divide each side by '2'. x = 18 + -9y Simplifying x = 18 + -9y</span>

At the start of the year a summer holiday to Spain cost £650. It increased by 11% in
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

Final cost = £779

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Cost of summer holiday =  £650

Amount increased by 11%

Increased cost = 11% of 650

Increased cost = \frac{11}{100}*650

Increased cost = 0.11 * 650 =  £71.50

Amount after increment = 650 + 71.50 = £721.50

Further increase = 8%

Amount = 0.08 * 721.50 = £57.72

Final cost = 721.50 + 57.72 =  £779.22

Thus,

Final cost = £779

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST NEED ANSWERS NOWW 100 POINTTTSSS.
mestny [16]

Part A:

To get the interest of 1 year

Multiply 20,000 by 5% or 0.05

You get $1,000

Thats the amount for 1 year, now to get for 4 years, multiply 1,000, by 4

She pays $4,000 in interest

Part B:

If she pays it off in 2 years, instead of 4 years, she will pay an interest of $2,000, divide 4 by 2

Part C:

This is the same as part b, she saves $2,000

Hope this helps
