3(x-25)=-150 is one
divide both sides by 3
x-25=-50
add 25 to both sides
x=-25

Given:

Last year 80 students signed up for a summer trip to Washington, D.C.

This summer 50 students have signed up to go.

To find:

The percent decrease in the number of students.

Solution:

We have,

Students in last year = 80

Students in this year = 50

Now,

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{\text{Students in last year - Students in this year }}{\text{Students in last year }}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{80-50}{80}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{30}{80}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=\dfrac{3}{8}\times 100$

$\text{Decrease}\%=37.5$

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Work out m and c for the line: 3 y + 6 x = − 3

Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

m is -2 and c is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

• Let's first phrase out the general equation of a line

${ \rm{y = mx + c}}$

m is the slope
c is the y-intercept

[ remember that a general line equation must be in slope - intercept form as shown above ]

• from our question, we are given the equation;

${ \rm{3y + 6x = - 3}}$

• let's make y the subject in order to make the equation in slope - intercept format.

→ remember to apply "subject making knowledge"

${ \rm{3y = - 3 - 6x}} \\ \\ { \rm{3y = - 6x - 3}} \\ \\ { \rm{ \frac{3y}{3} = \frac{ - 6x}{3} - \frac{3}{3} }} \\ \\ { \boxed{ \rm{y = - 2x - 1}}}$

• The above boxed equation is now a general equation. Let's extract out slope, m and y-intercept, c

${ \rm{m \: \dashrightarrow \: - 2}} \\ \\ { \rm{c \: \dashrightarrow \: - 1}}$

Plz help me get the answer ASAP please I been stuck on these

nika2105 [10]

$\frac{1}{2}y\leq -7$ Multiply 2/1 or 2 on both sides to get "y" by itself

$(2)\frac{1}{2}y\leq -7(2)$

y ≤ -14

On your wedding day you leave for the church 34 minutes before the ceremony is to begin, which should be plenty of time since th

Schach [20]

Answer:

Average speed is 37.35 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

leave = 34 minutes before

church distance = 12.0 miles

average speed first 17 minutes = 5.0 mi/h

solution

so we find Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = speed × time

Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = 5 × $\frac{17}{60}$

Total distance travel in first 17 minutes = 1.416 mi

and

Distance Remaining = 12 - 1.416 = 10.584 mi

Time Remaining = 34 - 17 min = 17 min

remaining distance Average speed = $\frac{distance}{time}$

Average speed = $\frac{10.584}{\frac{17}{60}}$

Average speed is 37.35 mi/h
