2 hours = 60*2 = 120 minutes
120/120 = 1
Margie handed out 1 flyer every minute
Jaxon handed 18/15 = 1.2 flyers per minute
so Jaxon is faster
Answer:
The slope is 
. The slope means that the amount of money in the account is decreasing at a rate of $
every week.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given coordinates are 
We need to find the slope of the graph, and explain what does slope means for this graph.
The formula for computing slope 
is
Where 
and 
are the point on the line.
Let us plug points in the equation
Here, the negative sign of slope represents that the value of the function (budget) is decreasing, with an increase in time (week).
The slope is . The slope means that the amount of money in the account is decreasing at a rate of $ every week.
1. We assume, that the number 92.4 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 92.4 is 100%, so we can write it down as 92.4=100%. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x is 150% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=150%. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 92.4=100%
2) x=150%
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
92.4/x=100%/150%
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for what is 150% of 92.4
92.4/x=100/150
<span>(92.4/x)*x=(100/150)*x - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>92.4=0.666666666667*x - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.666666666667) to get x
<span>92.4/0.666666666667=x </span>
<span>138.6=x </span>
x=138.6
<span>now we have: </span>
<span>150% of 92.4=138.6</span>
Not quite sure what you mean by brackets, but you can get the solution to this equation in a few steps:
<span>(-2x - 1)</span>² <span>= 0 ... square root both sides to eliminate the squared binomial
</span>√(-2x - 1)² = √0 ... simplify; the square is canceled out and the root of 0 brings you back to 0
-2x - 1 = 0 ... solve like a two-step equation
-2x = 1
x = -1/2 is your x-value.
