16 1/3 is bigger than 1/4
Answer:
You have your x and y mixed up
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at your table. You labeled y1 and y2 where the x's are. y2 = 8, y1 = 4, x2 = 12 and x1 = 6. The slope then is (8-4)/(12-6) which is 4/6 or 2/3. You did run over rise instead of rise over run. Be careful. I see that a lot when I teach the concept to beginners.
The old photocopier can make x manuals in an hour. The new photocopier can make 4x. Combined, they made 5x manuals in an hour.
In one hour they can make 1/28 of the manuals.
1/(28*5)=1/140 is the rate.
The new photocopier can make all the manuals in 4/140 or 35 hours.
The old one can make them in 140 hours.
Answer:
a = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
(4(x+1) + 20 )/(x+1) = 16
4x + 4 + 20 = 16x + 16
12x = 8
x = 2/3
RhTh + RsTs = 180 (Rh = 70, Rs=20 , Th = Ts)
70Th + 20Th = 180
90 Th = 180
Th = 2
since Th = Ts,
thus, Ts = 2
