Hello!
Let’s do it step-by-step, shall we? Don’t worry! These problems can be a bit tricky but you’ll get it in no time! It’s really simple.
So, we have (-7)(-5)
This means that the problem will be multiplied because of the parentheses. They substitute the multiplication sign.
So, we have -7 (multiplied by) -5= 35
So your answer would be 35. Hope this helps :) and good luck!
1) multiply price per pound by number of pounds.
1.73/lb * 2.6 pounds= $4.498= $4.50
ANSWER: C) $4.50
2) set up a proportion. 494 is what % out of 520 as x is what out of 100.
$494/$520= x/100
cross multiply
(494*100)= (520*x)
49400= 520x
divide both sides by 520
95%= x
ANSWER: D) 95%
Hope this helps! :)
6. 2/3
7. Angle U = 56
8. SB = 15
Answer:
y = -2x + 3
y = -1/2x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
- So the best way to solve is to come up with two slopes, I'd prefer 2 perpendicular slopes because perpendicular lines only cross once hence one solution guaranteed
- so say we choose a slopeA = 2 and slopeB = -1/2, the slopes are perpendicular only if when you multiply them you get -1
- then we use the slope intercept form of an equation y = mx + b
- we make up two equations y = -2x + b and y = -1/2x + b , now we can just make up number for b so the two equations are
- y = -2x + 3
- y = -1/2x + 5
- Then we solve them by substituting for y so
- -1/2x + 5 = -2x + 3 and x = -4/3
- and then we put this to get y in either equation
- y = -2(-4/3) + 3
- y = 17/3
- So the equations work
