Answer: The maximum amount of rides that Earl can go on is 9.


Step-by-step explanation: Earl only has 75 to spend so you cannot go over it. Each ride should be represented by x because it is an unknown value. 37.95 is a constant. The equation is 75 = 4.25x + 37.95. Subract 37.95 and you get 39.05 = 4.25x. Divide by 4.25 and you get 9.18823529412 = x. You cannot go on part of the ride so remove the decimal value. The answer is 9 rides.

Sonbull [250]
X=number of corect
y=number of incorrect
5 points for each correct so 5x
-1 point for each incorrect so -y

5x-y=76
solve for x and y

I like putting it into slope intercep tofrm which is y=mx+b
add y to both sides
5x=76+y
subtract 76 from both sides
5x-75=y
y=5x-76

subsitute values for x and get values for y
remember, that julia cannot answer a negative number of incorrect questions so y must be greater than or equal to 0

so solve for minimum
0<u><</u>5x-76
add 76 to both sides
76<u><</u>5x
divide by 5
15.2<u><</u>x
you cannot answer a fraction of a correct quesiton so round up
16 is the minumum number of queswtions correctlyh answered


so
x<u>></u>16

subsitute 16 for x
y=5(16)-76
y=80-76
y=4

as we subsitute more numbers over 16, we get these points
so (x,y)

Two legs of a right triangle are 4cm, and 3cm. find the length of the hypotenuse of this triangle
sergiy2304 [10]
It'll be 4^2+ 3^2 then the answer you get you take the square root of it which will give you the hypotenuse.
Your answer would be 5 because square root of 25 is 5
If u want the formula it's a^2+b^=c^2
C is the hypotenuse and a and b is the lengths

Answer:

y = 5x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope so y = 5x+9 is in slope intercept form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is 5

The new line will have a slope of 5

y = 5x+b

We know a point on the line (-2,-3)

Substitute this point into the equation

-3 = 5(-2)+b

-3 = -10+b

-3+10 = b

7 = b

y = 5x+7
