Answer:
You collected 1,395 kg.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since each pound would be 45 kg and you collected 31 pounds more then you would have to multiply 45 times 31.
Answer:
-12.5 i think
Step-by-step explanation:
-- They're losing employees . . . so you know that the line will slope down, and
its slope is negative;
-- They're losing employees at a steady rate . . . so you know that the slope is
the same everywhere on the line; this tells you that the graph is a straight line.
I can see the function right now, but I'll show you how to go through the steps to
find the function. I need to point out that these are steps that you've gone through
many times, but now that the subject pops up in a real-world situation, suddenly
you're running around in circles with your hair on fire screaming "What do I do ?
Somebody give me the answer !".
Just take a look at what has already been handed to you:
0 months . . . 65 employees
1 month . . . . 62 employees
2 months . . . 59 employees
You know three points on the line !
(0, 65) , (1, 62) , and (2, 59) .
For the first point, 'x' happens to be zero, so immediately
you have your y-intercept ! ' b ' = 65 .
You can use any two of the points to find the slope of the line.
You will calculate that the slope is negative-3 . . . which you
might have realized as you read the story, looked at the numbers,
and saw that they are <u>firing 3 employees per month</u>.
("Losing" them doesn't quite capture the true spirit of what is happening.)
So your function ... call it ' W(n) ' . . . Workforce after 'n' months . . .
is <em>W(n) = 65 - 3n</em> .
Answer:
the first diagram
Step-by-step explanation:
first one
The correct answer is –6x + 15 < 10 – 5x.
We can tell this by solving for x.
–3(2x – 5) < 5(2 – x) ----> Multiply to the parenthesis.
-6x + 15 < 10 - 5x ----> This is answer #3 and now we add 5x to both sides
-x + 15 < 10 ----> subtract 15 from both sides
-x < -5 ----> Divide by -1
x > 5 (Note that you have to change the direction of the sign when dividing by a -1. Therefore it does not match answer #1).
