Y=2x
y is the amount of money made from the sold books
x is the number of books that are sold (it is x because you don't know how many will be sold, so you have to account for all possibilities)
2x is because every book is sold for 2 dollars, so that mean x is multiplied by 2 to get y
You want the equation for a line that goes through the data points (0, 248) and (5, 277). The slope is ∆y/∆x = (277-248)/(5-0) = 29/5 = 5.8. The first data point is the y-intercept, so your equation in slope-intercept form is
... y = 5.8x + 248 . . . . . . where y is MWh of generation and x is years since 2007.
_____
∆y is read "delta y". It means "the change in y".
Answer:
5.54 inches of rain
Step-by-step explanation:
Monday - 3.11
Tuesday - 0.81
Wednesday - 0.81 x 2= 1.62
3.11 + 0.81 + 1.62=5.54 inches
If I am looking at this correctly you have (20/27) divided by (10/9).
The rule for dividing fractions is to keep the first term as it is, change the division to a multiplication, and flip the second term to its reciprocal. Them multiply as usual.
(20/27) * (9/10) = 180 / 270 = 2/3
1) 55/100 * 20 = 11
2) 200/100 * 12 = 24
3) 756/100 * 42 = 317.52 = 320
4) 460/100 * 11 = 50.6
