Hey!

Hope this helps...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Okay to answer this question we are assuming ONE major thing, that ALL 3 secretaries are considered "normal secretaries", and that they ALL type 80 words per minute...  Now after assuming that, here is some stuff we know...

Each Secretary types 80 words per minute...

We need to find how long it would take them to type 36,000 words...

By knowing this information, we can now proceed to the problem at hand...


80 * 3 = 240 words written <em>(</em><em>on average</em><em>)</em><em> </em>per minute

36,000 / 240 = 150 minutes to write 36,000 words

150 / 60 = 2.5 hours to write 36,000 words

2.5 hours <em>Converts to:</em> 2 hours and 30 minutes


So...

The answer is, It would take 3 secretaries, 2 hours and 30 minutes to write 36,000 words

A system of equations is graphed on the coordinate plane. y=−2x−3y=−2x+2 Graphs of the equations y equals negative two x plus tw
AleksandrR [38]
In y = mx + b form, the slope will be in the m position and the y int will be in the b position

y = -2x + 2....slope = -2 and y int = 2
y = -2x - 3.....slope = -2 and y int = -3

when u have 2 lines that both have the same slope but different y intercepts, u have parallel lines with no solution because ur lines never intersect.

so ur answer is : no solutions or 0 solutions

PLEASE HELP ASAP f(x) = x2 What is g(x)?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

c. g(x) = 4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From a first glance, since g(x), is skinnier than f(x), meaning that it is increasing faster, so I know that I can eliminate options A & B since the coefficient on x needs to be greater than 1.

We can then look and see that g(1) = 4 as shown by the point given to us on the graph.

To find the right answer we can find g(1) for options C & D and whichever one matches the point on the graph is our correct answer. e

Option C:

once we plug in 1 for x, our equation looks like

4(1)^2.

1^2 = 1, and 4(1) = 4,

so g(1) = 4. and our point is (1,4).

This is the same as the graph so this is the CORRECT answer.

If you want to double check, you can still find g(1) for option D and verify that it is the WRONG answer.

Option D:

once we plug in 1 for x, our equation looks like

16(1)^2

1^2 = 1, and 16(1) = 16,

so g(1) = 16. and our point is (1,16).

This is different than the graph so this is the WRONG answer.

Answer:

How much soil for a raised bed?
