45 pages total
3 on last page
45-3=42
there are 42 on the rest of the pages
on each page, there are 2 more pages in album than then stamps on pages

amount of stamps on pages with equal number of stamps is
A=numberofpgest times number of stamps on pages
number of pages=p
number of stamps per papge=s
a=ps

2 more pages than stamps on pages
p=2+s
total number of stamps per page is s=(45-3)/(p-1)
(what I did is I first got rid of number of stamps on last page, then got rid of the last page)
P=2+s
s=(45-3)/(2+s-1)
s=42/(s+1)
times s+1 both sides
s^2+s=42
minus 42
s^2+s-42=0
factor
(s-6)(s+7)=0
set equal to zero
s-6=0
s=6

s+7=0
s=-7, false, no negative stamps


6 stamps per page

sub
p=2+s
p=2+6
p=8
8 pages

check
last page is 3 so 8-1=7 page left

7*6=42
3+42=45

correct


there are
8 pages in the album
6 stamps per page

Answer:

Line 1: m = 2

Line 2: m = 2

The lines are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, ensure both lines are in the slope-intercept form given as y = mx + b. where m is the slope of the line.

If the slope of both lines are the same, they are parallel.

If the slope of one is the negative reciprocal of the other, they are perpendicular.

If the slope of both lines are different and one is neither the reciprocal of the other, then they are neither parallel nor perpendicular.

✍️Line 1, y = 2x + 5, is already in the slope-intercept form.

✅The slope of Line 1 is 2

✍️Line 2, y - 3 = 2(x + 15), is in point-slope.

We can decide to rewrite in the slope-intercept form or directly determine the slope as it is given. The slope is 2. But to be sure, let's rewrite as y = mx + b.

y - 3 = 2(x + 15)

y - 3 = 2x + 30

Add 3 to both sides

y = 2x + 33

✅As we can see, the slope of line 2 is 2.

✍️Line 1 and line 2 has the same slope of 2, therefore the lines are parallel.

Divide y by x:

150/10 = 15

135/9 = 15

30 /2 = 15

They all equal 15


This means the constant of proportionality would be y = 15x


The answer is C.

Answer:

X + 50 = 130

Step-by-step explanation:

This is actually a subtraction equation although addition is how you set it up initially. X is the variable. You already have $50. You need $130.

To solve, subtract 50 from each side,

X + 50 - 50 = 130 - 50, and simplify,

X = 120.

Jordan will need $120 more to go to the Camp Rodeo Field Trip.

Hope this helps.

The treasure box in Tammy's room is in the shape of a rectangular prism. The height is 7 inches, the lenght is 12 inches and wit
Sliva [168]

Answer:

336in^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangulur prism can be found by multiplying the length of the box with its height and width.

Thus, we can find the volume using the solution below:

v=l*w*h

l = 12in

h = 7in

w = 4in

12*7*4 = 336in^3
