Jared uses 24 tiles to cover the top of his desk. Of the 24 tiles, ⅜ are blue. How many of the tiles are blue?

7 0

You need to work out what an eight of 24 is:

\frac{1}{8} * \frac{24}{1}= \frac{24}{8} = \frac{3}{1}

Then you simply multiply 3 by 3 (as it is three eights not one) to get 9, so your answer is 9. $\frac{1}{8} * \frac{24}{1}
= \frac{24}{8} = \frac{3}{1}$

What is the selling price of a $12,543 boat if a $758 discount is given?

Lelu [443]

Given:
Selling Price: 12,543
Discount: 758

We simply deduct the discount from the original price to get the discounted selling price.

12,543 - 758 = 11,785

The new selling price of the boat is $11,785.

Discount of $758 is 6% of the Original selling price.
758 / 12,543 = 0.06
0.06 x 100% = 6%

The answer to #2?? I already have the graph but I still need the answer

Sidana [21]

If we have

y = 6x + 1 and x - y = 11, we can take advantage of y - y = 0 as follows:
Subtract x from both sides of the 2nd equation:
-y = 11 - x

Now combine

y = 6x + 1
-y = 11 - x
--------------
0 = 5x + 12. Solving for x, x = -12/5. Using the equation above, find y:
-y = 11 - x
= 11 - (-12/5)
= 55/5 + 12/5 = 67/5

Then the solution is (-12.5, 67/5).

Answer:

B) m = 2 , b = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

b = y-intercept

The y-intercept is -3

b = -3

m = slope

The slope is 2
