Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

As x increases from -74 to -54 (a 'run' of 20), y decreases from 18 to 12 (a 'rise' of -6.  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise/run = -6/20 = -13/10.

From y = mx + b we get     12 = (-13/10)(12) + b, or (after dividing all terms by 12)

1 = -13/10 + b/12, or

60 = -3(6) + 5b, or

42 = - 5b, or b = -42/5

The line is y = (-13/10)x - 42/5.

At the x-intercept, y = 0.  Setting y = 0, we get:

(13/10)X = -42/5,  or  13x = -84.

Thus, x = -84/13 =  -6.46

and so the x-intercept of the line is (-6.46, 0)

Answer:

(C * 9/5) + 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Basically, going from fahrenheit to celcius, you have to Deduct 32, then multiply by 5/9. So just reverse it, instead, you multiple it by the reciprocal, which is "9/5" then you add 32. Simple. :)

Rally sold 30 flower baskets at a market. She purchased 30 baskets for $142.65, 185 yards of ribbon for $.07 per yard, and $252.
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

She spent 142.65 for baskets, 252.50 for flowers and 185 * 0.07 or 12.95 for ribbons for a total outlay of 408.10. Since she made 30 baskets, that is 408.10/30 = 13.60 1/3 per basket.

If she sold all 30 for 25.99 each, that is 779.70 for a profit of 361.60

The area of a square is

s • s

We can also write this as

s^2

So, for any side length “s”, we can make a function, A(s), such that

A(s) = s^2

Now that we have a quadratic equation for the area of a square, let’s go ahead and solve for the side lengths of a square with a given area. In this case, 225 in^2

225 = s^2

Therefore,

s = sqrt(225)

s = 15

So, the dimensions are 15 x 15 in

The hexagonal prism has a an equation of volume = base * height.

Since we already know the base is 8 sq feet, we can plug in some values and use x as a missing value

40 = 8 * x
Divide by 8
5 = x

X is equal to 5.
