Answer: B
Step-by-step explanation: B
If you graph this, your first point will be at (0,5), as the ramp is at the warehouse door but 5 feet up. The second point is (10,0) as it is touching the ground but it's 10 feet away from the warehouse.
To find slope, you do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
When substituting in the variables, you get (0-5)/(10-0), which is -5/10, which is simplified to -1/2. Of course, that is when the warehouse is Quadrant II. If you look at it from another point of view, the slope will be positive so your answer is A) 1/2.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Srry
<span>The probability of missing the first shot is 40%.
When she misses the first shot, the probability of missing the second shot is very, very low, only 5%.
That means that the probability of missing both shots must be much smaller than the probability of missing the first shot.
40/100 * 5/100
0.4 * 0.05
= 0.02
= 2%</span>
Number of nickels plus number of dimes equals total number of coins
so
n + d = 40
then they tell us that "there are seven times as many dimes as there are nickels"
this translates to
d = 7n
we then plug that into our first equation
and get
n + 7n = 40
then we solve for n
add like terms
8n = 40
then divide both sides by 8
n = 40/8 = 5
therefore Jimmy has 5 nickels
