Answer:
D. 13 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 x -2 = 7
2/3 x -2 + 2 = 7 + 2
2/3 x = 9
x = 9 (3/2)
x = 27/2
x = 13 1/2
The average number of hours can be calculated using the following rule:
average number of hours = total number of hours / total number of weeks
total number of hours = 36 3/8 + 41 1/4 + 40 1/2 + 38 3/8 = 313/2 hours
total number of weeks = 4 weeks
Average number of hours per week = (313/2) / (4) = 39 1/8 hour
Based on the above calculations, the correct answer is:
C. 39 1/8 hour
The ratio is:
Chlorine : Water = 1 : 10
m ( Water ) = 15 ounces
m ( Chlorine ) = x
x : 15 = 1 : 10
10 x = 15 * 1
10 x = 15
x = 15 : 10
x = 1.5 ounces
Answer:
We need to add 1.5 ounces of Chlorine for the correct ratio.
Answer:

Answer:
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving from (1,6) to (4, -2) involves an increase of 3 in x and a decrease of 8 in y. Thus, the slope of the line thru these two points is m = rise / run = -8/3.
Using the slope-intercept form of the eq'n of a straight line and inserting the data given (slope = m = -8/3, x = 4, y = -2), we get:
y = mx + b => -2 = (-8/3)(4) + b, or -2 = -32/3 + b
Multiply all terms by 3 to clear out the fraction:
-6 = -32 + 3b.
Then 26 = 3b, and b = 26/3.
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.
