Answer:

First, we put the values of the given point into the general equation, giving:

0 = m * -1 + b .......(1)

Now plug in the given value of m into equation (1), giving:

0 = 2 + b ........(2)

Solving equation (2), we find that b = -2.

Now we can write the required equation as:

y = -2x - 2

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

The different single-scoop ice-cream cones can you buy from this vendor=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a vendor sells ice cream from a cart on the boardwalk. He offers vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, blueberry, and pistachio ice cream, served on either a waffle, sugar, or plain cone.

Different types of icecreams are 4

Types of cones are 3

For each ice cream say we can have either waffle, sugar or plain cone.

i.e. for each type of ice cream, we have 3 different cones.

Hence for 4 types of ice creams we have 3*4=12 different single scoop ice creamcones.

The garden hose at Andre's house can fill a 5-gallon bucket in 2 minutes. The hose at his next-door neighbor's house can fill a

mina [271]

Answer:

The time it would take them to fill 750 gallons

= 200 minutes or 3 hours 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 :

We calculate the rate at which the hoses fill for Andre and His neighbor

For Andre

The garden hose at Andre's house can fill a 5-gallon bucket in 2 minutes.

The rate is calculated as:

5 gallon/2 minutes

= 2.5 gallons/minute

For His neighbor

The hose at his next-door neighbor's house can fill a 10-gallon bucket in 8

minutes.

= 10 gallon/8 minutes

= 1.25 gallon/minute

Step 2

Hence:

If they use both their garden hoses at the same time, and the hoses continue working at the same rate, the sum of their rate =

2.5 + 1.25 = 3.75 gallons per minute.

Step 3

The time it would take them to fill 750 gallons =

750 gallons ÷ 3.75 gallons per minute

= 200 minutes

= 3 hours 20 minutes

The drama club sold bags of candy and cookies to raise money for the spring show. Bags of candy cost $5.50 and bags of cookies c

vaieri [72.5K]

Let's assume

the number of bags of candy =x

the number of bags of cookies =y

There were 5 more bags of cookies sold than candy

so, we get

$y=x+5$

Bags of candy cost $5.50

so, total cost of candy is

$=5.50x$

bags of cookies cost $3.50

so, total cost of cookies is

$=3.50y$

so,

total cost = (total cost of candy)+(total cost of cookies)

we get

total cost =5.50x+3.50y

so, we can plug

$5.50x+3.50y=53.50$

now, we can plug y

$5.50x+3.50(x+5)=53.50$

$5.5x\cdot \:10+3.5\left(x+5\right)\cdot \:10=53.5\cdot \:10$

$55x+35\left(x+5\right)=535$

$55x+35x+175=535$

$90x+175=535$

$90x+175-175=535-175$

$90x=360$

$x=4$

now, we can find y

$y=x+5$

$y=4+5$

$y=9$

so,

the number of bags of candy =4

the number of bags of cookies =9............Answer
