Hello!

Step-by-step explanation:

$Slope=\frac{Y_2-Y_1}{X_2-X_1}$

$\frac{6-2}{3-1}=\frac{4}{2}=2$

Slope is 2.

2 is the final answer.

Hope this helps you!

Have a nice day! :)

Last year Baron Enterprises had $800 million of sales, and it had $270 million of fixed assets that were used at 65% of capacity

Svetllana [295]

Answer: B. $430.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Last year Baron Enterprises had $800 million of sales.

It had $270 million of fixed assets that were used at 65% (=0.65) of capacity last year.

Now, the used asset = $0.65\times270=\$175.5$ million

Now, Baron Enterprises had $800 million of sales in $175.5 million of assets , if we use all of $270 million of fixed assets , then the sales will be :-

$\dfrac{800}{175.5}\times270=1230.76923077\approx1230.80\text{ million}$

Now, the increase in Baron's sales before it is required to increase its fixed assets = $\$1230.80-$800=\$430.80\text{ millions}$

Hence, the increase in Baron's ( in million ) sales before it is required to increase its fixed assets = $430.80

A rancher wants to fence in an area of 1000000 square feet in a rectangular field and then divide it in half with a fence down t

frosja888 [35]

The shortest length of the fence used by the rancher in a rectangular field of 1000000 square feet is 4899 ft.

<h3>What is the area of a rectangle?</h3>

The area of a rectangle is a region enclosed in four corners where two opposite sides are equal. The area of the rectangle is mathematically expressed as:

Area of a rectangle = length(x) × breath(y)

1000000 sq.ft = (x) × (y) ---- (1)

However, to determine the fencing, we have:

Length of fencing = 2x + 2y
