Answer:

The x intercept would be -4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, get your numbers into slope intercept form, y = mx + b. This would be y = -1/2x - 2. Then, replace y for 0, which would be 0 = -1/2x - 2. Add 2 on both sides to get 2 = -1/2x. then, multiply each side by -2, you end up with -4 = x, which means -4 is your x intercept.

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Letter B matches the probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lucy throws a fair six sided dice.

Probability of the dice landing on a number between 1 and 6 = \frac{\text{Favorable outcome}}{\text{Number of events}}

= \frac{1}{6}

On a number line fraction \frac{1}{6} can be represented by,

An small section (A to B) will represent the fraction = \frac{1}{6}

Therefore, letter B will match the probability of a dice landing on a number between 1 and 6.

A student charges twenty dollars per hour to type college papers. The student's average typing speed is fifty words per minute.
coldgirl [10]

Answer:

The student should charge $210 for typing the paper ⇒ answer C

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The rate of the student's typing is 50 words per minute

- The students charges twenty dollars per hour to type the college

 papers

- There is a paper contains 31,500 words

- We want to now how much the student should charge for it

* At first lets find his rate per hour

∵ 1 hour = 60 minutes

∴ 1 minute = 1/60 hours

∵ His rate = 50 words / 1 minute

- Lets change the minute to hour

∴ His rate = 50/(1 × 1/60) = 3000 words per hour

* Lets find the time he needs to finish the paper

∵ The paper contains 31,500 words

∵ Time = The number of words ÷ his rate of typing

∵ his rate is 3000 words per hour

∴ Time = 31,500 ÷ 3000 = 10.5 hours

∴ He needs 10.5 hours to finish the paper

∵ He charges $20 per hour

∵ The time to finish the paper is 10.5 hours

∵ The price of typing the paper = the charge per hour × number

   of hours

∴ The price of typing the paper = 20 × 10.5 = 210

∴ The student should charge $210 for typing the paper
