Answer:

18 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

Create an equation where x is the number of weeks he works

60x - 220 will represent his profit, since he gets $60 a week but spent $220 in equipment.

Set this equal to 860, then solve for x, to find when he will earn $860

60x - 220 = 860

60x = 1080

x = 18

So, it will take him 18 weeks to earn $860

Answer: Last equation (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they want the perpendicular slope, we must take the negative reciprocal if the slope in the equation given. So the negative reciprocal of -1/3 is 3 so that takes out the first and third equation. Now we have to use point slope which is y - y1= m (x - x1) . Doing this gives us y - 5 = 3(x+2) which  is the last equation.

An ant can travel at a constant speed of 980 inches in every 5 minutes how far does the ant travel in 1 minute
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

196 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that an ant can travel at a constant speed of 980 inches in every 5 minutes.

To find the distance traveled by ant in one minute we will divide total distance traveled by time taken to travel that distance.  

\text{Distance traveled by ant in 1 minute}=\frac{980}{5}

\text{Distance traveled by ant in 1 minute}=196

Therefore, ant travels 196 inches in one minute.

last summer at Camp okeefenokee the ratio of the number of a boy campers to the number of girl campers with 8:7. If there were a
Stels [109]
Number of boys=x
number of girls=y.

We can suggest this system of equations:
x/y=8/7                  ⇒x=8y/7
x+y=195

this system of equations can be solve by substitution method.

(8y/7)+y=195
least common multiple=7
8y+7y=1365
15y=1365
y=1365/15
y=91

x=8y/7
x=8*91 / 7
x=728/7
x=104

Answer: there were 104 boy campers and 91 girl campers.

Jason drove 4/5 of the way to his destination if he drove 480 miles what is his total distance of his trip
algol [13]
4/5 of his total trip is 480...

4/5x = 480
x = 480 / (4/5)
x = 480 * 5/4
x = 2400/4
x = 600 <=== total distance is 600 miles
