Tell where you should place the first digit in the quotient 4839 divided by 15. Then determine the first digit and explain how y

Over the 8 because 15 cannot divide into 4, which means you go over one number to 48. 15 goes into 48 3 times so you put 3 above it.

Solving linear equation mean calculating the unknown variable from the equation.

Let the linear equation : y = mx + c

If we draw the above equation on Cartesian Coordinates , it will be a straight line with :

<em>m → gradient of the line</em>

<em>( 0 , c ) → y - intercept</em>

Gradient of the line could also be calculated from two arbitrary points on line ( x₁ , y₁ ) and ( x₂ , y₂ ) with the formula :

$\large {\boxed{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}$

If point ( x₁ , y₁ ) is on the line with gradient m , the equation of the line will be :

$\large {\boxed{y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1 )}}$

<em>Let us tackle the problem!</em>

$\texttt{ }$

This problem is about Directly Proportional.

<em>There were 8 engineers under every team leader.</em>

$\texttt{1 Team Leader} \rightarrow \texttt{8 engineers}$

$\texttt{15 Team Leader} \rightarrow 15 \times \texttt{8 engineers} = \boxed{\texttt{120 engineers}}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>There were 5 project managers for every 50 engineers.</em>

$\texttt{50 engineers} \rightarrow \texttt{5 project managers}$

$\texttt{120 engineers} \rightarrow (120 \div 50) \times \texttt{5 project managers} = \boxed{\texttt{12 project managers}}$

$\texttt{ }$

What is the square root of 18 plus the square root of 2? And is it rational or irrational?<br>

kicyunya [14]

The answer is (rounded to the nearest tenth) about 5.7 and since neither 18 or 2 have a perfect square, so this is irrational.

The cost of renting a moving van for a 26 mile trip is $62.50. the cost of renting the same van for a 38 mile trip is $65.50 The

Darya [45]

The difference between the 26 mile trip and 38 mile trip is 12 miles.
The difference in the price is $3.00 ($65.50 - $62.50)

So those 12 miles cost $3.00 $3.00÷12 = $.25 per mile

We can use either given trip to solve. I will use the 38 mile trip.
The difference between 38 miles and 54 miles is 16 miles. At $.25 a mile those 16 miles will add $4.00 to the price. ($.25 x 16 = $4.00)
Since the 38 mile trip costs $65.50 we add $4.00 and get $69.50 for a 54 mile trip.
