Answer: the sprinkling rate of the butler family's sprinkler is 40L per hour

the sprinkling rate of the Clark family's sprinkler is 20L per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the sprinkling rate of the butler family's sprinkler.

Let y represent the sprinkling rate of the Clark family's sprinkler.

The butler family's sprinklers was used for 40 hours. The Clark family's sprinkler was used for 30 hours. There was a combined total output of 2200L of water. This means that

40x + 30y = 2200 - - - - - - - - - - -1

if the sum of the two rates was 60l per hour, it means that

x + y = 60

Substituting x = 60 - y into equation 1, it becomes

40(60 - y) + 30y = 2200

2400 - 40y + 30y = 2200

- 40y + 30y = 2200 - 2400

- 10y = - 200

y = - 200/ - 10

y = 20

Substituting y = 20 into x = 60 - y, it becomes

x = 60 - 20 = 40

The equation for slope is y=mx+b therefore your equation would be y=.5x+2 or y=1/2+2
both of these are correct just the matter of fact of what way your teacher wants you to use :)

Answer:

The answer is C. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for slope is referred to "rise over run". So in this case you rise 2 over one (2/1) That gives you 2. But since the line is going down is -2

Help please?!?!?!?!?!?!?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Choice D is  correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given two function.

f(x) =2ˣ+5x  and g(x)  = 3x-5

We have to find the addition of given two function.

(f+g)(x) =  ?

The formula to find the addition, we have

(f+g)(x) = f(x) + g(x)

Putting given values in above formula, we have

(f+g)(x) =   (2ˣ+5x)+(3x-5)

(f+g)(x) =   2ˣ+5x+3x-5

Adding like terms, we have

(f+g)(x) =   2ˣ+8x-5 which is the answer.

PLZ HELP Simplify the rational expression. State any excluded values. 2x/-5x+x^2
Bas_tet [7]
(2x/-5x)+x^2
(x(2)/(x(-5))+x^2

(-2/5)+x^2, the x values cancel in numerator and denominator and simplify to -2/5
