point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

where m is the slope and (x1, y1,) is a point

substitute in

y-2 = 1/2(x--8)

y-2 = 1/2(x+8)

Answer:

$4\sqrt{5}$ or 8.944

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^{2} = 16(5)$

Simplify

$x^{2} =80$

Square root both sides to get x by itself

$\sqrt{x^{2} } =\sqrt{80}$

What is 2 1/8 take away 1/2

goblinko [34]

The equation is $2\frac{1}{8} - \frac{1}{2}$ .

1/2 is equivalent to 4/8, and 2 1/8 is equal to 17/8. (two full sets of 8 + 1 = 8 + 8 + 1, or 17)

The new equation is $\frac{17}{8} -\frac{4}{8}$ . Subtract the numerators.

17 - 4 = 13 or 13/8

The improper fraction $\frac{13}{8}$ simplifies to $1\frac{5}{8}$ .

<h2>Answer:</h2>

$1\frac{5}{8}$

Hope this helps :)

Masja [62]

2 minutes 30 seconds, or 2:30.

If two customers enter the store every five minutes, that means you have to divide 5 minutes by 2 to get the amount of time it takes for each customer to enter.
