To obtain the rate of change of mine's silver output, subtract the number of silver exported on 2005 from that on 2008. From the given, from 2005 to 2008, which is a span of 3 years, the exported silver decreased by 175 tons. Thus, the rate of change is equal to -175 tons per 3 years.
Answer:
a.) (0,4) b.) (-4,0)
Step-by-step explanation:
a.) Let x=0 and solve for y: y=0+4=4. Since we let x=0 the first number will be 0 and we found y to be 4, so our coordinates are (0,4)
b.) Let y=0 and solve for x: 0=x+4, x=-4. Since x=-4 our first number is -4, since y is 0 our second number is 0, so our coordinates are (-4,0)
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Answer: There is 32in² more sand in the pyramid with greater volume.
step explanation:
40 boys and 68 girls
let's start with variables and an equation.
boys: x
girls: 2x - 12
and we know that boys and girls make up the class. so let's add the two expressions.
x + 2x - 12 = 108
3x - 12 = 108
+ 12 + 12
3x = 120
x = 40 boys
BUT x is only the number of BOYS in the class. so we have to find girls now. let's plug in our value of x into the girls' equation.
2x - 12 = # of girls
2(40) -12 = # of girls
80 - 12 = # of girls
68 girls
let's check our answer!
68 + 40 does in fact add to 108, therefore our answer is correct.
