Mrs. Carlson wrote the following question for her class: "Ricardo's basketball team is selling raffle tickets, Each ticket costs

$0.75, They want to sell $285 worth of raffle tickets. So far, they have sold $75 worth of tickets. How many tickets do they still need to sell?" Some of the student responses are shown in the table below: Michelle's respone was 285 - 75 = 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 28, Kaley's respone was 285 - 75 = 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 210.75, Eva's response was 285 - 75 is 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 280, Rebecca's response was 285 - 75 = 210 and 210 + 0.75 = 118.

Answer:

michelle, kaley, and Rebecca.

Step-by-step explanation:

They have sold 100 tickets so far ($75), they need to sell 380 ($285) tickets in total and need to sell 280 more tickets.

Michelle was wrong because she should have divided 210 (how much more money they need to sell on tickets) into .75 (which is how much each ticket costs).

Kaley was wrong because she should have also divided 210 into .75 like Michelle.

Rebecca should have also divided 210 into .75.

Eva was the only correct one.

In 3-4 sentences, describe how you would find a line parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 15 that goes through the point (-10, 1). Be
larisa86 [58]

the parallel line is 2x+5y+15=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

ok I hope it will work

soo,

Solution

given,

given parallel line 2x+5y=15

which goes through the point (-10,1)

now,

let 2x+5y=15 be equation no.1

then the line which is parallel to the equation 1st

2 x+5y+k = 0 let it be equation no.2

now the equation no.2 passes through the point (-10,1)

or, 2x+5y+k =0

or, 2*-10+5*1+k= 0

or, -20+5+k= 0

or, -15+k= 0

or, k= 15

putting the value of k in equation no.2 we get,

or, 2x+5y+k=0

or, 2x+5y+15=0

which is a required line.

Rectangle A has a length of 2x + 6 and a width of 3x. Rectangle B has a length of x + 2 and an area of 12 square units greater t
Maurinko [17]
So here is how you solve for the answer.
Firstly, you solve for the Area of Rectangle A.
The formula for Area is Length x width.
So A = (2x + 6)(3x) and the result is: 6x^2 + 18x
Now, let y be the width of rectangle B.
<span>(x+2) (y) = 6x^2 + 18x + 12
(x+2) y = 6(x+1)(x+2)
y = 6(x+1)
</span>So the final answer would be width is 6x + 6. The answer is the third option. Hope this answer helps.
