Answer: r=5,500

P=$125,000

P=25r-12,500
substitute P for 125,000
125,000=25r-12,500
add 12,500 to both sides
137,500=25r
divide both sides by 25
5500=r

The company sold 5,500 fishing rods

What are the intercepts of y=4x-2?
pshichka [43]
First, solve for the x - intercept. To do so, equate y to 0 and solve for x. 

                                               0 = 4x - 2, x = 1/2

Second, solve for the y - intercept. Equate x to 0 which will give us,

                                              y = (4)(0) -2, y = -2

Therefore,  the x-intercept is 1/2 and y-intercept is -2.

Divide. Write in simplest form. 10 divided by 1 2/3 ?
adell [148]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation: First rewrite 10 as 10/1 and 1 and 2/3 as 5/3.

Mixed numbers can be changed to improper fractions by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and then adding the numerator. We then put out numerator over our old denominator.

So we have 10/1 ÷ 5/3 or 10/1 × 3/5.

It's important to understand that dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. In other words, we can change the division to multiplication and flip the second fraction.

Now multiplying across the numerators and across the denominators, we have 30/5. Notice however that 30/5 is not in lowest terms so we divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common factor of 30 and 5 which is 6 and we end up with 6.

Therefore, 10 ÷ 1 and 2/3 = 6.

Dorothy types 120 words per minute. How many words does Dorothy type in 1.75 minutes?
nirvana33 [79]
As you are looking for 1.75 minutes (or 105 seconds), the best thing to do is to find how many words she can type in 0.25 minutes (this is a quarter, and you can divide 1.75 by this). To find a quarter, you have to divide by 4, 120/4= 30. Therefore, every 15 seconds, Dorothy can type 30 words. As you've got 105 seconds, divide this by 15, and this gives you 7. Then multiply 30 by 7, and this gives you 210.
Dorothy can type 210 words in 1.75 minutes
Hope this helps :)
