Graph the line with slope 1 passing through the point (5,1).
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

y= x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a point, and the slope, we can use the point slope formula

y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1}  )

m is the slope, y1 is the y coordinate of the point and x1 is the x coordinate of the point.

We know that m is 1, y1 is 1, and x1 is 5, so we can substitute them in

y-1=1(x-5)

Solve for y by isolating it

Distribute the 1

y-1=1*x+ 1*-5

y-1=x-5

Add 1 to both sides

y=x-4

If a snail crawls 12 centimeters per hour, how long will it take for the snail to travel 1 meter
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer: 8 1/3 hours or 500 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that there are 100 centimeters in a meter.

The snail moves at a pace of 12 cm/h, and needs to go 100 cm.  You can just divide 100/12 to get 8 1/3, which is how many hours (groups of 12 cm) it takes for the snail to travel 100 cm (1 meter).

If necessary, you can also multiply 8 1/3 by 60 to get the number of minutes the snail takes.  8 times 60 is 480, and 1/3 of an hour is 20, so add 480+20 to get 500 minutes.

Urgent please <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection" class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="4d2528213d6c6c0d">[email&#160;protected]<
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

40°

Step-by-step explanation:

Measure of Nonagon (9-sided polygon) = 1260°

Each angle measure = 1260 ÷ 9 = 140°

The value of x (the outside angle) = 180° - 140° = 40°

Answer:

  • 10 chores
  • Sam

Step-by-step explanation:

A) If the playing times are to be the same, then the two expressions for playing time will be equal to each other.

  Ron = Sam

  3 +1.25c = 8 +0.75c

  0.50c +3 = 8 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.75c from both sides

  0.50c = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 3 from both sides

  c = 5/0.50 = 10 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of c

Each would have to complete 10 chores for their playing times to be the same.

__

B) When c = 4, we have ...

  Ron: 3 +1.25·4 = 3 +5 = 8

  Sam: 8 +0.75·4 = 8 +3 = 11

Sam spent the most gaming time if both completed 4 chores.
