It takes Billy 15 minutes to complete 1/8 of a recipe.

Multiply 8 to both numbers

1/8 x 8 = 1

15 x 8 = 120

It takes Billy 120 minutes, or 2 hours, for him to complete the recipe.

hope this helps

It will take billy two hours to complete it because 15 minutes took up 1/8 of the time and 8 times 15 is 120. 120 minutes is 2 hours.

A line passes through point A (14,21). A second point on the line has an x-value that is 125% of the x-value of point A and a y-

seropon [69]

Answer:

The equation of the line in point-slope form is $y-21 = - \frac{3}{2}\cdot (x-14)$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the statement, let $A(x,y) = (14,21)$ and $B(x,y) = (1.25\cdot x_{A},0.75\cdot y_{A})$ . The equation of the line in point-slope form is defined by the following formula:

$y-y_{A} = m\cdot (x-x_{A})$ (1)

Where:

$x_{A}$ , $y_{A}$ - Coordinates of the point A, dimensionless.

$m$ - Slope, dimensionless.

$x$ - Independent variable, dimensionless.

$y$ - Dependent variable, dimensionless.

In addition, the slope of the line is defined by:

$m = \frac{y_{B}-y_{A}}{x_{B}-x_{A}}$ (2)

If we know that $x_{A} = 14$ and $y_{A} = 21$ , then the equation of the line in point-slope form is:

$x_{B} = 1.25\cdot (14)$

$x_{B} = 17.5$

$y_{B} = 0.75\cdot (21)$

$y_{B} = 15.75$

From (2):

$m = \frac{15.75-21}{17.5-14}$

$m = -\frac{3}{2}$

By (1):

$y-21 = - \frac{3}{2}\cdot (x-14)$

The equation of the line in point-slope form is $y-21 = - \frac{3}{2}\cdot (x-14)$ .

Helpppp me please!! I dont understand.

Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

X = 11

X = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

The measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of an intercepted arc. So 1/2 mCE = m∠CDE

158 ÷ 2 = 79

You need to find x so you're going to set your equation of (8x - 9) = 79

Then you're going to add 9 to both sides to get 8x = 88

Divide both sides by 8 to get x = 11

Part 2:

We know that WY is 180 because it's a semicircle. Using this and the knowledge that ∠WXY is half the measure of the intercepted arc (180), we know that our equation should be (13x - 1) = 90

add 1 to both sides and our equation is (13x = 91)

Divide both sides by 13 and...

x = 7

Charlie wants to buy new carpet for his living room floor the floor is in the shape of a rectangle its length is 15 feet and the

sdas [7]

Answer:

135 square ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this equation, you need to find the area of this rectangle. Area is always base x height, or in this case, length x width. Now you multply your length, 15', by your width, 9', to get your answer, 135 square feet. When you multiply two measurments of the same unit together, you get square (units), which simply means that you multiplied two of the same unit of measurment together.
