The answer is 8/5.
To divide fractions, flip the second fraction and multiply.
For example,
= 6/7 • 21/5
= 126/35
Simplify by dividing both sides by 7 to get your answer.
= 8/5
Your answer is 25% because a change from 16 to 20 represents a positive change (increase) of 25%
When multiplying two powers with the same base (which is 5 in this case) you can simply add the exponents. - 8 + 4 = - 4. The answer is
Answer:
P + M = 30
700P + 200M = 15000
Number of laser printers = 18
Number of color monitors = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Let P = number of laser printers
Let M = number of color monitors
Given total number of boxes = 30
⇒ P + M = 30
Given:
- $700 = cost of laser printer
- $200 = cost of color monitor
- $15000 = total cost of order
⇒ 700P + 200M = 15000
Rewrite P + M = 30 to make P the subject:
⇒ P = 30 - M
Substitute into 700P + 200M = 15000 and solve for M:
⇒ 700(30 - M) + 200M = 15000
⇒ 21000 - 700M + 200M = 15000
⇒ 500M = 6000
⇒ M = 12
Substitute found value for M into P = 30 - M and solve for P:
⇒ P = 30 - 12 = 18

Answer:
y = 1/5x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
When a point and slope are given, sometimes it is easiest to start with the point-slope form of the equation. Then it can be rearranged to the desired form.
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
y -0 = 1/5(x -10) . . . . . line with slope 1/5 through point (10, 0)
y = 1/5x -2 . . . . . . . eliminate parentheses to get slope-intercept form
_____
Note that the slope in the attached picture is 1/5, but your problem text says it is 5. Very different equations will result from these different slopes.
