It takes 0.15625 minutes to paint 1 square feet

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, I can paint 96 sq ft in 15 minutes

To find: Time taken to paint 1 square feet

From given,

96 square feet is painted in 15 minutes

Let "x" be the time taken to paint 1 square feet

Then, we can say,

96 square feet = 15 minutes

1 square feet = x minutes

This forms a proportion and we can solve the sum by cross multiplying

$96 \times x = 15 \times 1\\\\x = \frac{15}{96}\\\\x = 0.15625$

Thus it takes 0.15625 minutes to paint 1 square feet

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point -3/5 and has a slope of -2

Gemiola [76]

Answer:

y = -2x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

slope = m

y = -2x + b

5 = -2x * -3 + b

5 = 6 + b

-1 = b

y = -2x - 1

In 1955 an antique car that originally cost 3,943 is valued at 64,125 if in excellent condition, winch is 2 1/4 times as much as

nika2105 [10]

Answer:

The value of the car in very nice condition is $28,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

In 1955 an antique car that originally cost 3,943 is valued at 64,125 if in excellent condition, winch is 2 1/4 times as much as a car in very nice condition.

The mixed fraction can be written as:

$2 \frac{1}{4}=\frac{9}{4}$
