Hey,

I know you already got the answer but I just wanted to provide a quick explanation/summary so you really let it sink in. :)

m= slope , b = y-intercept

y = mx+b

y = (1) x + 3/5

y = x+3/5

* There's no need to write the 1. :)

So your answer, as you said, would be b!

Hope this helped summarize things! :)

your answer should be C) y= -3/5x

because y=mx+b

the m=slope

b= y-intercept

Answer: A. 12.5

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

$cos\ \theta=\dfrac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}\\\\\\cos\ 28^o=\dfrac{11}{x}\\\\\\\rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{11}{cos\ 28^o}\\\\\\\rightarrow\ x=12.46\\\\\\\rightarrow\ \boxed{x=12.5}\qquad rounded\ to\ the\ nearest\ tenth$

Brandon is paid 150% of his regular hourly rate for overtime hours. He is paid \$45.00 an hour for overtime hoursWhat is his reg

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Regular hourly rate for Brandon is $30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the payment for regular hours be $x

given that

Brandon is paid 150% of his regular hourly rate for overtime hours

payment for overtime hours = 150% of payment for regular hours

payment for overtime hours = 150/100 * x = 3x/2

Given that He is paid \$45.00 an hour for overtime hours

thus,

3x/2 = 45

=> x = 45*2/3 = 30

Thus, regular hourly rate for Brandon is $30

The width of a rectangle is 5 units less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 6 units. What is the width, in units, of

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The width of rectangle is 1 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The area of rectangle is 6 units and its width is 5 units less than the length.

So, to find the width of rectangle.

Let the length be $x$ and the width be $x-5$ .

Now, to find the width we put the formula of area of rectangle:

Area = length × width

$6= x\times (x-5)$

$6=x^{2}-5x$

$0=x^{2}-5x-6$

$0=x^{2}-6x+x-6$

$0=x(x-6)+1(x-6)$

$0=(x-6)(x+1)$

<em>On solving equation we get:</em>

$x-6=0, x+1=0$

Therefore, we take the value x=6 as it is positive value:

$x-6=0$

$x=6$

So, the width of rectangle:

Width = $x-5$

= $6-5$

= $1$

Therefore, the width of rectangle is 1 unit.
