<u>Answer-</u>

<em>The necklace with 24 shells is longer than the necklace with 18 shells by 9 inches.</em>

<u>Solution-</u>

Length of each dentalia shell = 1.5 inches

Length of the necklace made with 24 shells = 24×1.5 = 36 inches

Length of the necklace made with 18 shells = 18×1.5 = 27 inches

The necklace with 24 shells is longer than the necklace with 18 shells by the amount of ,

= 36 - 27 = 9 inches

∴ The necklace with 24 shells is longer than the necklace with 18 shells by 9 inches.

( ∵ As the numbers are already rounded off or natural numbers, so we don't have to round them off or use the compatible numbers.)

Lubov Fominskaja [6]
Example :

            x               y
            1               3
            2               6
            3               9
            4               12

first thing u do is pick any 2 points (x,y) from ur table

(1,3) and (2,6)
now we sub those into the slope formula (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) to find the slope
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
(1,3)....x1 = 1 and y1 = 3
(2,6)...x2 = 2 and y2 = 6
sub
slope = (6 - 3) / (2 - 1) = 3/1 = 3

now we use slope intercept formula y = mx + b
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 3
use any point off ur table...(1,3)...x = 1 and y = 3
now we sub and find b, the y int
3 = 3(1) + b
3 = 3 + b
3 - 3 = b
0 = b

so ur equation is : y = 3x + 0....which can be written as y = 3x...and if u sub any of ur points into this equation, they should make the equation true....if they dont, then it is not correct

and if u need it in standard form..
y = 3x
-3x + y = 0
3x - y = 0 ...this is standard form

The ticket booth at a school play sells 170 adult tickets and 150 student tickets. Find the ratio of adults to students. Write y
e-lub [12.9K]
The ration is 170 adults:150 children, or 170/150We can factor out a 10 from both numbers, which leaves us with
17 adults/15 children.17 and 15 have no other factors, so that's the smallest ratio we can have.

Answer:

Her daughters age: 1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Rani's present age is x. Her age is twice the age of her daughter.

So if Rani's age is 20, her daughters age would be 10, because Rani is twice the age of 10; so 10 times 2 would be 20.

1/2(20)=daughter's age

so if you substitute x into 20 because we don't actually know Rani's age, it would be 1/2(x)=daughter's age.

hope this helped :-) <3
