Answer:

10 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Say x is the number of hours he can rent the detector at most. Using it, we can set up this equation:

15 + 2x = 35

Subtract 15 from both sides

2x = 20

Divide by 2 on both sides

x = 10

Find the slope of the line that passes through the pair of points (–1, –10) and (–3, 10).
svet-max [94.6K]
To find the slope of a line you only need two points. The first point is (x1,y1) and the second point is (x2,y2). The slope m is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (10--10)/(-3--1)
= 20/ -2 = -10.
Answer: m = -10.

42 of the 150 employees at Carlo's Car Repair wear contact lenses. What percent of the employees wear contact lenses?
antiseptic1488 [7]
\frac{42}{150} ÷ 2 = \frac{21}{75}

\frac{21}{75} ÷ 3 = \frac{7}{25}

\frac{42}{150}= \frac{7}{25}

Then, divide 7 by 25 because 25 is the divisor

7 ÷ 25 = 0.28

28% is the answer (:

Graph the following and determine in which quadrants the graphs lie: y= 1/3x
natta225 [31]

y = 1/3x

The slope is 1/3 ( the slope is the number with the variable x).


There is no other operation ( addition or subtraction) so the y- intercept is 0

The first point of the graph would be (0,0)


Calculate another point , lets use x = 3

y = 1/3(3) = 1

The second point is (3,1)


The line of the graph is an angled line which is located in quadrant 1 and 3.
