Answer:

13(s+12) pounds

B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Nathan and Steven stacked boxes on a shelf.

  • Nathan lifted 13 boxes
  • Steven lifted 15 boxes.

Let s represent the weight of the boxes that Steven lifted.

The boxes that Nathan lifted each weighed 12 lb more than the boxes Steven lifted.

Weight of each box lifted by Nathan = (s+12) lb

Total number of box lifted by Nathan = 13

Total weight of boxes = Total number of box × Weight of each box  

                                    = 13 × (s+12)

Expression: 13(s+12) lb

Hence, The total weight of boxes lifted by Nathan will be 13(s+12) pounds

Which equation represents a line that passes through the point ( 6 , − 3 ) and is parallel to the graph of y = 3 x + 1 ?
Ratling [72]

Answer:

              y + 3= 3(x - 6)        ←    point-slope form

             y = 3x - 21           ←    slope-intercept form

             3x - y = 21         ←    standard form

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of the equation of line it's y - y₁ = m(x - x₁), where m is the slope and (x₁, y₁) is the point the line passing through.

y=m₁x+b₁   ║   y=m₂x+b₂   ⇔    m₁ = m₂

{Two lines are parallel if  their slopes are equal}

y = 3x + 1   ⇒    m₁ = 3    ⇒    m₂ = 3

(6, -3)    ⇒    x₁ = 6,  y₁ = -3

point-slope form:

y - (-3) = 3(x - 6)

y + 3 = 3(x - 6)

y + 3 = 3x - 18              {subtact 3 from both sides}

y = 3x - 21        ←    slope-intercept form

-3x + y = -21                 {multiply both sides by (-1)}

3x - y = 21         ←    standard form

Alexander earns ​12% commission each week. Last​ week, he sold ​$6,400 worth of stocks. How much did he make last week in​ commi
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

Commission = $768

Total amount commission in 2011 = $41,472

Step-by-step explanation:

Commission = Sales × 12% of sales

Commission = $6,400 × .12

Commission = $768

Number of weeks in a year = 52 weeks

Total amount commission in 2011 = Commission per month × Number of

                                                            weeks in a year

Total amount commission in 2011 = $768 × 52

Total amount commission in 2011 = $41,472
