The answer is 2 plates and .50 glaze left over.

How did I get this?

First lets calculate how many bowls can we glaze. 
5 bowls * 7/8 of a pint = 4.375 pints
4.375 = how many glaze we will need to make 5 bowls.

6 pints - 4.375pints = 1.625 pints left over after we glaze the bowls. 

Now, we need to figure out how many plates we can make with 1.625 glaze.

P X 9/16 = 1.625
Multiply both sides by 16/9 to isolate the variable.
P = 1.625*16/9 
P = 2.88 plates

So, we can only glaze 2 plates. 

How many glaze is left over?
First, how many glaze did we have left over from the bowls? 1.625 glaze
Then, how many plates did we make? 2 at .5625 each = 1.125 glaze

1.625 - 1.125 = .50 glaze left over.

The answer is 2 plates and .50 glaze left over.

The US cencus bureau claimed that the US population increased by 27.3 million people from 2000 to 2010, which is a 9.7% increase
Kamila [148]
9.7% represents an increase of 27.3 Mil,

The 100% represents 27.3/9.7% =27.3/0.097= 281.44 Mil (Year 200

Year 2101 = 281.44 + 27.3 = 308.74 Mil

What is the slope intercept form of the equation y+18=2(x-1)
statuscvo [17]
<h2>The slope intercept form of the given equation is: y  = 2x +  ( - 20)   </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The equation y + 18 = 2( x - 1)

To write the given equation in the slope intercept form = ?

∴ The equation y + 18 = 2( x - 1)

⇒ y + 18 = 2x - 2

⇒ y  = 2x - 2 - 18

⇒ y  = 2x - 20

⇒ y  = 2x +  ( - 20)                  ..... (1)

We know that,

The equation of slope intercept form,

y = mx + c

Where, m is the sope and c is the y-intercept

∴ The slope intercept form of the given equation is: y  = 2x +  ( - 20)

Miguel sells insurance. He earns a 6% commission on each sale he makes. Miguel has a goal of earning $600 in commissions. Miguel
tankabanditka [31]

Answer: $12,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Miguel makes 6% on every sale he makes and wants to make $600 in commissions.

The amount he needs to sell is therefore the amount that has $600 as 5% of it.

Assume the amount of insurance needed is x.

x * 5% = 600

x = 600 / 5%

x = $12,000
