3 0

Answer:

1/2 or 0.5 (same value, different form)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok...since I can't actually graph it, we can make a table out of it....

x y

7 -1

9 0

From -1 to 0, we add 1 (this is for the y section)

From 7 to 9, we add 2 (this is for the x section)

Now all we have to do is divide the y with the x

y/x = 1/2

The slope will be 1/2 (fraction form) 0.5 (decimal form)

Hope this helped!

3 Fred is making a fruit salad. The ratio

marusya05 [52]

Answer: 24 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "x" the amount of cups of peaches that Fred will need to make 60 cups of fruit salad.

According to the information given in the exercise, you know that the ratio of cups of peaches to cups of cherries is the one shown below:

$2:3$

Which can also be written as a fraction:

$\frac{2}{3}$

Then, if he uses 2 cups of peaches and 3 cups of cherries, he will get 5 cups of fruit salad.

Knowing the above, you can set up the following proportion:

$\frac{2}{5}=\frac{x}{60}$

Now you must solve for "x" in order to find its value. This is:

$(60)(\frac{2}{5})=x\\\\x=24$

Determine the slope of the line with the following graph

Delicious77 [7]

Find the slope from a graph

Locate two points on the line whose coordinates are integers.

Starting with the point on the left, sketch a right triangle, going from the first point to the second point.

Count the rise and the run on the legs of the triangle.

Take the ratio of rise to run to find the slope. m=riserun.

Find the volume of the solid figure shown below. The area of the base is 40 square inches and the height of the figure is 7 inch

Marrrta [24]

Answer:

$\displaystyle V _{ \text{cuboid}} =280 {in}^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given the base area and the height of a solid figure

since the base area is not perfect square

we assure the solid figure to be a cuboid

remember that,

$\displaystyle V _{ \text{cuboid}} = l\times w \times h$

we are given l×w is 40 and h is 7

so substitute

$\displaystyle V _{ \text{cuboid}} =40 \times 7$

simplify multiplication:

$\displaystyle V _{ \text{cuboid}} =280$

hence,

the volume of the figure is 280 in³
