ASAP PLEASE<br><br> What is the slope of the equation 2 y = 6 x - 8?

Effectus [21]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

divide the equation by two

to make the equation equal to y

so y=(6x-8)/2

y=3x-4

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y intercept

so 3=slope

Hope that helps :)

a rectangular laboratory has a length equal to one and a half times its width and a perimeter of 40m. find its length and width

tresset_1 [31]

L=1.5w
P=l+w
40=2.5 w
W=16
L=1.5(16) =24

Length is 24
Width is 16

FIND g rounded to the nearest degree ??

Harrizon [31]

In this situation I would use cosine to find m∠G.

Cosine = Adjacent side ÷ Hypotenuse

RG being the adjacent side and TG being the hypotenuse, you would set up the equation like this

cos(g) = 8/17

then solve

cos(g) = 0.47058

simplify

g = cos^-1(0.47058)

and you get

m∠G = 61.9°

So your answer would be 62°

21 Maria sold small boxes of candy for $1 and

Anna35 [415]

Answer:

There where 10 <u>more</u> Small boxes sold than Large boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>This is a typical question that can be solved by obtaining a system of two linear equations and solving for each variable. </u>

In principle Linear Equations are algebraic expressions denoting a relationship between a Dependent variable $y$ and an Independent variable $x$ . In a system of Two Linear equations we have<u> two equations</u> of the same variable sets (thus Two Independent variables) so in this case both $y$ and $x$ will be variable terms.

Now with respect to the question and the given information, here our two Variable terms will be the small and the large boxes.

<u>Given Information:</u>

Small Boxes (lets call them $s$ ) cost $1 per box

Large Boxes (lets call them $l$ ) cost $4 per box
Total Number of Boxes sold is 30
Total Profit from sold Boxes is $60

Thus from the above we can obtain one equation denoting the Total Number of Boxes sold and one equation denoting the Total Profit from sold boxes, respectively, as follow:

$s+l=30$ Eqn(1): Total Number of Boxes

$1s+4l=60$ Eqn(2): Total Profit from sold boxes

Now we have a system of two linear equations which we can solve and find the number of small and large boxes, $s$ and $l$ respectively.

From Eqn(1) we see that

$s=30-l$ Eqn(3).

Plugging Eqn(3) in Eqn(2) we can solve for $l$ as:

$1(30-l)+4l=60$

$30-l+4l=60$ Factored out bracket

$3l=60-30$ Gather similar terms on each side and simplify

$3l=30$

$l=\frac{30}{3}$

$l=10$

Plugging in the value for $l=10$ in Eqn(3) we have

$s=30-10\\s=20$

So we know that they were<u> 10 Large Boxes and 20 Small Boxes sold</u>, thus to answer our question, there where 10 more Small boxes sold than Large boxes.

Write the explicit rule of the arithmetic sequence that has a first term of 3 and a fourth term of 18

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

$a_{n}$ = 5n - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

$a_{n}$ = a₁ + (n - 1)d

where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference

Given a₄ = 18 , then

a₁ + 3d = 18 , that is

3 + 3d = 18 ( subtract 3 from both sides )

3d = 15 (divide both sides by 3 )

d = 5

Then

$a_{n}$ = 3 + 5(n - 1) = 3 + 5n - 5 = 5n - 2 ← explicit rule
