Step-by-step Answer:
Given:
Bill : 3 minutes / apple
Frank : 5 minutes / 2 apples, or 2.5 minutes / apple.
So in 15 minutes, Bill eats 5 apples, and Frank eats 15/2.5 = 6 apples for a total of 11 apples.
To eat completely at least 12 apples, it would take 15 minutes + 1 apples, which means 17.5 minutes, with Bill having eaten 5 5/6 apples, and Frank having eaten 7 apples, exactly.
So the minimum time to eat 12 apples would be 17.5 minutes.
Note: at 18 minutes, they would have eaten 13 1/5 apples.
3/2 is its most simple form
Use long or synthetic division
The correct choice is B
7= 16 + 3x
7-16 = 3x
-9 = 3x
x = (-9)/(3)
x = -3
Answer: A. -1.8
Step-by-step explanation: Hi there!
First, we have to see the constant rate of change in the x and y values.
For x: 2
For y: -3.6
If the slope is m=y/x
then we can do
-3.6/2
that simplifies to
-1.8/1
which is
-1.8
Hope this answer helps you!
