Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let total spaces=x

sum of ratio=7+4=11

$\frac{11}{7} =\frac{x}{63} \\x=\frac{11}{7} \times 63=99$

First, find how many actual empty spaces there are to the ratio of empty spaces. (In other words, divide 63 by 7)

63 ÷ 7 = 9

Now that we know for that there are 9 sets of 7 in 63, multiply 4 by 9 to find the amount of taken parking spaces.

4 × 9 = 36

The unsimplified ratio of empty spaces to take spaces is 63:36. Add these two numbers together to find the total number of spaces.

63 + 36 = 99

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>There are </u><u>99 </u><u>total parking spaces.</u>

I hope this helps :)

What is the slope of (-1,6) and (2,3)?

LenKa [72]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

For a line joining two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2), it's slope is given as:

$\boxed{ \mathsf{slope = \frac{ y_{2} -y _{1}}{ x_{2} - x _{1}} }}$

Here, the two points are (-1, 6) and (2, 3) in place of (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).

Solving for slope:

$\implies \mathsf{ \frac{3 - 6}{2 - ( -1 )} }$

$\implies \mathsf{ \frac{ - 3}{2 + 1 } }$

$\implies \mathsf{ \frac{ - 3}{3 } }$

$\implies \mathsf{ - 1 }$

Hence, the slope of the line joining the given points is <u>-1.</u>

a traveling salesman drives his car 30000 miles a year. His car travels 16 miles to the gallon of gas. How many gallons of gas d

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

187.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

$\frac{16 miles}{1 gallon}$ = $\frac{3000 miles}{x}$

3000/16 = 187.5, so multiply 1 by 187.5 to find the gallons used in a year

This gets you 187.5 gallons used in a year

The perimeter of a rectangle is dependent on the length of each of its sides. Suppose the base of a rectangle is two more than i

Bezzdna [24]

Perimeter=4h+4

If the base is 2 more than the height, it gives us the equation:
b=h+2

The equation for the perimeter of a rectangle can be though of as 2b+2h, so substituting in (h+2) for b from the first equation, we get 2(h+2)+2h.

This can be simplified to be 2h+4+2h or 4h+4
