Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Here's how to find the slope given any two points.

Subtract the y values.

14-(-18+-14+18=32

Subtract the x values.

-6-2=-8

And divide those.

32/-8=-4

The slope is -4.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Order of Operations: BPEMDAS
Equality Properties

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

$\frac{0.35}{\frac{2}{3}x } =\frac{0.45}{x-10}$

Step 2: Solve for x

Cross-multiply: $0.35(x-10)=\frac{2}{3} x \cdot 0.45$
Distribute 0.35: $0.35x - 3.5=\frac{2}{3} x \cdot 0.45$
Multiply: $0.35x - 3.5=0.3x$
Isolate x term: $-3.5=-0.05x$
Isolate x: $70=x$
Rewrite: $x=70$

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

Substitute: $\frac{0.35}{\frac{2}{3}(70) } =\frac{0.45}{70-10}$
Multiply: $\frac{0.35}{\frac{140}{3} } =\frac{0.45}{70-10}$
Subtract: $\frac{0.35}{\frac{140}{3} } =\frac{0.45}{60}$
Evaluate: $0.0075=0.0075$

If 12 men earn $810 in 10 days how much will 14 men earn in 8 days, if the daily wage is the same for each man

kogti [31]

1 man earns 810 / 12 = $67.5 in 10 days
by proportion 1 man will earn 0.8 * 67.5 = $54 in 8 days

So 14 men will earn 54 * 14 = $756 in 8 days.
