Question 3. You divide 5 1/4 by 3/4 then multiply that by 20.
The answer is 140
Let x and y be the 2 parts of 15 ==> x + y=15 (given)
Reciprocal of x and y ==> 1/x +1/y ==> 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 (given)
Let's solve 1/x + 1/y = 3/10 . Common denominator = 10.x.y (reduce to same denominator)
==> (10y+10x)/10xy = 3xy/10xy ==> 10x+10y =3xy
But x+y = 15 , then 10x+10y =150 ==> 150=3xy and xy = 50
Now we have the sum S of the 2 parts that is S = 15 and
their Product = xy =50
Let's use the quadratic equation for S and P==> X² -SX +P =0
Or X² - 15X + 50=0, Solve for X & you will find:
The 1st part of 15 is 10 & the 2nd part is 5
Answer:
slope = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Calculate the slope m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 0) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (3, 12) ← 2 points on the line
m = 
= 
= 4
The independent variable (the one they want) is the # of hours worked, since that determines the price.
