Answer:

Kelly owes $16.5

Greg owes $33

Joe owes $64.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Kelly's portion = x

Greg's portion = 2x

Joe's portion = 4x - 1.50

Total bill = $114.00

Total bill = Kelly's portion + Greg's portion + Joe's portion

114 = x + 2x + (4x - 1.50)

114 = 3x + 4x - 1.50

114 = 7x - 1.50

Add 1.50 to both sides

114 + 1.50 = 7x - 1.50 + 1.50

115.5 = 7x

Divide both sides by 7

x = 115.5 / 7

= 16.5

x = $16.5

Kelly's portion = x

x = $16.5

Greg's portion = 2x

= 2 × 16.5

= $33

Joe's portion = 4x - 1.50

= 4(16.5) - 1.50

= 66 - 1.50

= $64.5

Therefore,

Kelly owes $16.5

Greg owes $33

Joe owes $64.5

Which monomial is a perfect cube? <br> 16x6<br> 27x8 <br> 32x12 <br> 64x6
miss Akunina [59]
The fastest way is to just use a scientific calculator.

To do it without a calculator, use prime factorization.

I'll only do the second one which is the answer.

27 x 8

= 3^3 x 2^3 = 6^3

Which is a perfect cube.

Lines a and b are parallel. What is the measure of angle s? Enter your answer in the box. s = ∘∘ Horizontal parallel lines a and
VashaNatasha [74]
<span>s = 22 degrees
       
Assuming I'm interpreting your description accurately, the top right angle of line b will also be 158 degrees because it's a corresponding angle to the top right angle of line a. That means that the top left angle of line b will be a supplementary angle. And supplementary angles add up to 180. So 180 - 158 = 22.</span>

Write the equation in slope-intercept form. (-7,-2), (2,3)
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

y = -5/9x + 4.1

(try doing this yourself first with different points to make sure this is the right answer, because im to lazy to check myself but ill try checking D:)

Step-by-step explanation:

first you have to find the slope . to do this use the equation y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

so write as -2 - 3/  -7 - 2 is equal to -5/-9

so now write y = -5/9x + b

we must now find the y-intercept so substitute one of the points given. lets substitute 2,3 it looks easier. So it will look like 3 = -5/9(2) + b

3 = -5/9(2) + b

3 = -10/9 + b

b = 3 + 10/9

b = 4.111111

um just round to the tenth place
