One bowl needs 3/5 of a pound. Knowing that, we just need to find out how many 3/5s may fit in 10:

10 ÷ 3/5 =
= 10 * 5/3 =
= 50/3 =
= 16 2/3

Assuming the potter can't make a 2/3 of a bowl, he'll be able to make 16 bowls from 10 pounds.

A line that has a rise of -34 and a run of 20.
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

y=-1.7x-34

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation of a line is given y=mx+c, where m is the gradient or \frac{Rise}{Run}

The rise indicates the change in value of y (vertical change in the graph).

The run indicates the change in value of x (horizontal change in the graph).

Let point 1 of the graph be (x,y) = (0,-34) and point 2 be (x,y) = (20,0).

 m =\frac{Rise}{Run} \\  =\frac{-34}{20}\\  =-1.7

Substitute point 1 into the graph to get the constant c.

y=mx+c

-34=(-1.7)*(0)+c

c=-34

∴ The equation of the line is, y=-1.7x-34

mestny [16]

Answer:

6 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

So the amount b we will have in our account w weeks from now is given by the equation:

b=85+(15+7)w

To find out after how many weeks from now we will have $210, substitute 210 for b and solve for w:

210=85+(15+7)w

Subtract 85 from both sides:

125=(15+7)w

Add within the parentheses:

125=22w

Divide both sides by 22:

w=125/22\approx5.68\approx6

In other words, we will have $210 after approximately 6 weeks.
