<u>Answer</u>

x ≥ 68


<u>Explanation</u>

let that number be x.

(3/4) of x = (3/4) × x

                = 3x/4

Decrease 3x/4 by 9,

3x/4 - 9

This expression is at least 42,

∴ 3x/4 - 9  ≥ 42

   3x - 36 ≥ 168

    3x ≥ 168 + 36

    3x ≥ 204

      x ≥ 68

Write the equation of the line given the slope and a point through the line passes
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

1.) Y = 5/3 X + 4

2.) Y = 9/4 X - 27/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the slope and the coordinate, linear equation of a line can be expressed by using general linear equation. Which is

Y = MX + C

Where the

Slope M = 5/3

Coordinate = (-3,-1) in which

X = -3, Y = -1

Substitute X, Y and M into the general linear equation to achieve C

-1 = 5/3(-3) + C

-1 = - 5 + C

C = 5 - 1

C = 4

Substitute C and M back into the general linear equation.

Therefore, the equation of the line given the slope and a point through the line passes 5/3, and (-3,-1) to be

Y = 5/3 X + 4

2.) Also,

Slope M = 9/4

Coordinate = (3,0) where X = 3, Y = 0

Substitute X, Y and M into the general linear equation to obtain C

0 = 9/4 (3) + C

C = - 27/4

Substitutes C and M back into the general linear equation

Therefore, the equation of the line given the slope and a point through the line passes 9/4 and (3,0)

Y = 9/4 X - 27/4

Nathan has just bought a new car. He models the value, V, in dollars, of the car after t years as V(t) = 21,000(0.861)t. Based o
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

13.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of car is modeled as:

V(t)=21,000(0.861)t

Here we can see that, each year Nathan has considered 0.861 of the previous year value or we can say that Nathan has considered 86.1% of the previous year value. So,

100-86.1=13.9

We subtract the percentage value considered from 100 to find out the percentage decrease in the value of the car.

The value of new car is decreasing by 13.9% each year.

Working together, Jacob and Kristin can
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

  15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Their rate together is 1/6 floor per minute.

Her rate alone is 1/10 floor per minute.

His rate is the difference of these:

  1/6 - 1/10 = 5/30 -3/30 = 2/30 = 1/15 . . . . floor per minute

It would take Jacob 15 minutes to do it alone.

If average of 3 quantities is 15 , sum of quantities is....?
Verizon [17]

Answer:

45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the three quantities be x, y and z.

\because \: average =  \frac{sum \: of \: quantities}{no \: of \: quantities}  \\  \\  \therefore \: 15 =  \frac{x + y + z}{3}  \\  \\ 15 \times 3 = x + y + z \\  \\ \huge \purple{ 45 = x + y + z}
