The answer would be: 8
All you need to do is count the sum of the digits and see if is divisible by nine.
8 + 2 + 5 + 3 + 0 = 18
18 is divisible by 9.
Thus, 8 makes 82,530 divisible by 9.
Answer:
Martin family: 20 hours
Lewis family: 35 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that the Lewis family sprinklers were out for L hours and the Martin family's sprinklers were out for M hours. We know that for each hour that the Lewis family sprinkler was on, 30L of water was put out. We can thus write the Lewis family sprinkler water output as 30L per each hour of L = 30 * L. Similarly, the Martin family sprinkler water output = 15 * M .
We know that the total hours for the sprinklers is 55, so L + M = 55. The total water output for the sprinklers is the sum of the sprinkler outputs, so 30 * L + 15 * M = 1350
L + M = 55
30 * L + 15 * M = 1350
One way to solve this would be to solve for L in the first equation and substitute that into the second
subtract M from both sides in the second equation
55 - M = L
30 * (55-M) + 15 * M = 1350
30 * 55 - 30 * M + 15 * M = 1350
1650 - 15M = 1350
subtract 1650 from both sides to isolate the M and its coefficient
-15M = -300
divide both sides by -15 to isolate M
M = 20
L = 55-20 = 35
To complete this equation, it is vital to know the slope. To find the slope using points, you subtract the first x from the second, and the first y from the second. This gives you a slope of 4. Then, you must follow point-slope form and choose one of the order pairs to use. You then write y then the negative of your number. Since the number is already negative, you turn it into a positive. On the other side of the "=" sign, you write your slope, 4 distributing to x. Then you write the negative of your x value. Since it is already negative, it turns into a positive. This gives you a final answer of y+1=4(x+2). I realize that this doesn't line up with your fill-in-the-blank answer, so I am sorry if it doesn't work.
