Answer:
It should be linear if you let the variable t represent the time tutoring for ONE student, so y = 40*t where t = number of hours for ONE student
so if the tutor taught 2 students for 2 hours together, then t = 2*2 = 4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 40t
t = tutoring hours for ONE unique student...
Answer:
<h2>y = 3.5x - 2</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
<h3>y = mx + b</h3>
m - slope
b - y-intercept
We have y-intercept b = -2. Substitute:
<h3>y = mx - 2</h3>
We have the point (4, 12) → x = 4, y = 12. Put them in the equation:
12 = 4m - 2 <em>add 2 to both sides</em>
14 = 4m <em>divide both sides by 4</em>
14/4 = m → m = 3.5

Answer:
(x, y) = (-1, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations are "consistent" and "not dependent." This will be the case whenever the ratios of x- and y-coefficients are different.

We can solve this by "elimination" by multiplying the first equation by -4 and adding the result of the second equation being multiplied by 7.
-4(2x -7y) +7(7x -4y) = -4(19) +7(5)
-8x +28y +49x -28y = -76 +35 . . . . eliminate parentheses
41x = -41 . . . . . simplify
x = -1 . . . . . . . divide by 41
Using the second equation, we find y to be ...
(7x -5)/4 = y = (7(-1) -5)/4 = -12/4 = -3
So, the solution is (x, y) = (-1, -3).
Answer:
14.4% decrease
Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the formula for finding the percentage of decrease:
(starting value - final value) / starting value * 100.
So for your question,
/
There was a 14.4% decrease within 50 years.
Answer:
2.68 pints
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction of white paint is 1 -3/5 = 2/5, so the quantity of white paint is ...
(2/5)(6.7 pints) = 2.68 pints
Kimberly used 2.68 pints of white paint.
