Answer:

1.) Slope M are 3/4, 1/7

2.) No.

3.) No.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) Slope M = change in y ÷ change in x

That is,

M = (y1 - y2)/(x2 -x1)

Given the following points:

A (10, 4) and B (–2, –5) C (–7, 1) and D (7, 8) E and F(-2, 2/3)

The slopeM between point A and B will be

M = (-5-4)/(-2-10)

M = -9/-12 = 3/4

The slope M between point C and D will be

M = (8-1)/(7+7)

M = 7/14 = 1/7

The slope M between point E and F will be

2.) The slope of a line passing through (1, 7) and (3, 9) will be

M = (9-7)/(3-1)

M = 2/2 = 1

But Robert say The ratio = (1-3)/(7-9) = 1

Though Robert will eventually get the Same value but that is not the correct method of calculating slope.

3.) Point A (1, 3) B (4, 2) C (–2, 4) do not lie on the same lines. If they do, they will all have the Same value for x or the same value for y.

Victoria wants to purchase a skateboard. She has $125 to spend. She finds one that regularly sells for $139.99 and is on sale fo
Pavel [41]

Well, to see if she can afford the skateboard, start by finding the discount and then finding the sales tax of that.

To find the discount, first find 15% of $139.99 and then subtract it since that's how much you're getting off.

<em>Remember: </em><em>to find percentage, convert the percentage into a decimal by dividing it by 100, and then multiplying it by what you're finding a percentage of. </em>

15% ÷ 100 = 0.15

$139.99 x 0.15 = 20.9985, which can be rounded up to $21.

$139.99 - 21 = 118.99.

Now that we have the discount, we find the sales tax, which can be found the same way as the discount, but we add it to the total instead fo subtracting it.

7% ÷  100 = 0.07

0.07 x 118.99 8.3293 or  $8.33

118.99 + 8.33 = 127.32

<em>This is the final total of how much the skateboard would cost.</em>

So:

No, she would not have enough money to buy the skateboard. With the discount alone, she could afford it, since $118 falls in her budget range, but with the added tax, it's 13 dollars over and she cannot afford the skateboard.

If one can of paint contains 2 2/5 gallons, how much paint is in one dozen cans of paint?
olasank [31]
Hi there!

Let’s take a look at the question.

One can of paint contains 2 2/5. We can make it easier by transforming the fraction (2 2/5) to a decimal (2.4). Now you have 2.4. Next, it says “one dozen”. One dozen refers to 12 cans. You’ll want to multiply 2.4 with 12.

Your answer is 28.8, or 28 4/5.


Hope this helps!
