djyliett [7]

Answer:

a. <u>saletax</u><u> </u>= 98.75

100

<u>5</u><u> </u> = <u> </u><u>9</u><u>8</u><u>.</u><u>7</u><u>5</u>

100 1

5(1) = 100(98.75)

5 = 100(98.75)

<u> </u><u> </u>divide both side by 5

<u>5</u><u> </u><u> </u>= <u> </u><u>1</u><u>0</u><u>0</u><u>(</u><u>9</u><u>8</u><u>.</u><u>7</u><u>5</u><u>)</u>

5 5

since 100 can divide 5 so we divide them

= 20(98.75)

amount sale tax = 1975

b. 98.75 × 5 =493.75$

John types 62 words per minute. Which an expression for the number of words he types in m minutes?
andrezito [222]

Answer:

w = 62m

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to make an expression for the numbers of words (w) John types in m minutes.

We know he types 62 words in 1 minute, so 62 is the coefficient of m.

The dependent variable here is w, so that should on the left of the equal sign.

m, on the other hand, is independent, so that's on the right of the equal sign.

So, the expression is w = 62m.

What is the slope of the line y - 5 = -4(x - 8)?
galben [10]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

This looks like point-slope form, which I find personally hideous. Let's change it to slope-intercept form to ease my conscience. (remember that slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept!)

y - 5 = -4(x-8)

y - 5 = -4x + 32

y = -4x + 37

It's in slope-intercept form now! And -4 looks to be our m.

<u>So the slope is -4.</u>
