kobusy [5.1K]

Answer: C=270x+2200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cost per student in the year 1978 is $2200

The cost increases to $10,300 in 2008

Suppose C=mx+a is the linear equation defining the cost per student after x years

Substitute the value for 1978

\Rightarrow 2200=m(0)+c\\\Rightarrow c=2200

After 30 years it becomes

\Rightarrow 10,300=m(30)+2200\\\Rightarrow 30m=8100\\\Rightarrow m=270

Thus, the linear equation becomes

\Rightarrow C=270x+2200

Kaya had a string 6 1/8 inches long. She cut off a piece 2 3/4 inches long. How long is the remaining piece of string? Show your
Katen [24]

Answer: 3 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that for example 2/4=4/8 so it is multiplied by 2. In this problem the fractions are 2 2/4 and 6 1/8. We are subtracting so you would first multiply the fraction that’s going to subtracted from the other fraction 2 3/4= 2 6/8. Now that we have our fractions we can subtract 6 1/8-2 6/8 this would leave us with 3.375 which is equal to 3 3/8.
