Pedro had 1482 hits and Riley had 1200 hits.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of base hits = 2682

Let,

Number of Pedro's hits = x

Number of Riley's hits = y

According to given statement;

x+y=2682    Eqn 1

x = y+282    Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

(y+282)+y=2682\\y+282+y=2682\\2y=2682-282\\2y=2400

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{2400}{2}\\y=1200

Putting y=1200 in Eqn 2

x=1200+282\\x=1482

Pedro had 1482 hits and Riley had 1200 hits.

The annual health insurance premium for Ms Everett is $12,304. her employer pays 70% of the premium and deducts the remainder fr
Gekata [30.6K]
Answer: See each one below:

1) Since she is paying for 30% of the cost, we multiply it by 0.3. Then, since it is over the whole year, we divide it by 12.

12304 * 0.3 / 12 = 307.6 B

2)  First, we subtract the cost of the 50 deductible, then multiply the amound by 0.2 because he has to pay 20% of the balance.
1060 - 50 = 1010 x 0.2 = 202 A

3)  First, we find the total cost of the visits. Mattie has to pay for 40% so times it by 0.4. Then, don't forget to add in the cost of 12 co-pays of $15 each.
3660 * 0.4 = 1464 + 15(12) = 1664 B

Select all the exspressions that are all equivalent to 20 percent of 150
Dmitriy789 [7]

<em>Note: It seems you may have unintentionally missed adding the answer choices. Thus, I am solving your question in general to give you the idea of how the percentage works, which anyways would solve your query.</em>

<em></em>

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we have to determine the expressions which are equivalent to 20 percent of 150.

First, we need to determine what actually 20 percent of 150 really brings.

i.e

20% of 150 = 20/100 × 150

                   = 30

Thus,

20% of 150 = 30

Therefore, any expression that is equivalent to 30 will be included in the answer to this question.

What is the standard form equation of the line shown below? Graph of a line going through negative 2, 3 and 1, negative 3
V125BC [204]

Answer:

3. 2x + y = −1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line, we write it first in the slope-intercept form:

y=mx+q

where

m is the slope

q is the y-intercept

From the graph, we see that the line crosses the y-axis at y = -1, so the y-intercept is -1:

q=-1

Now we have to find the slope, by calculating the rate of change of the line through 2 points:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Taking the two points at (-2,3) and (1,-3), we find:

m=\frac{-3-3}{1-(-2)}=\frac{-6}{3}=-2

So the equation of the line is

y=-2x-1

Now we have to re-arrange it in the standard form, so in the form

ax+bx=c

where a, b and c are integer numbers.

To do that, we simply add +2x on both sides of the equation of the line in the slope-intercept form, and we get:

y+2x=-1

So, option 3).
