1) How many weeks will Jake and Seth be equal? set the equations equal to each other and solve for x:
5x + 85 = 20x + 40
45 = 15x
<u><em>x = 3 weeks</em></u>
2) How much money will that be? plug x = 3 back into the equation to solve for y:
Jake: 5(3) + 85 = $100
Seth: 20(3) + 40 = $100
<u><em>answer is $100</em></u>
I think it is -14. I inserted 4 as n. I don't know if that's how you do it.
Answer:
The slope would be 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Your slope-intercept form is always y=mx + b
The <em>b </em>is always your <em>constant</em>
The <em>mx </em>is your <em>slope</em>
The<em> y </em>is your<em> output</em>
Answer:
Mrs. Etercsid
Step-by-step explanation:
One thing we can do is just multiply the averages by the percents in each class and compare from there.
To get from percentages to decimals, we can divide by 100.
For Mr. Tats:
Homework: 25 % -> 0.25
Participation: 10% -> 0.1
Test: 40% -> 0.4
Final: 0.25 -> 0.25
For Mrs. Etercsid:
Homework: 15% -> 0.15
Participation: 10% -> 0.1
Test: 60% -> 0.6
Final: 15% -> 0.15
We can then multiply the averages by the decimals for each teacher and add them up.
Mr. Tats:
0.25 * 81 + 0.1 * 57 + 0.4 * 93 + 0.25 * 87 = 84.9
Mrs. Etercsid:
0.15 * 81 + 0.1 * 57 + 0.6 * 93 + 0.15 * 87 = 86.7
You would get the higher grade with Mrs. Etercsid
