Answer:

320 minutes was her time on the previous race

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time spent on the previous race be x minutes.

Given that at her most recent race, Sue finished in 272 minutes which is 15% less time than the previous race then

x - 15% * x = 272

x - 0.15x = 272

0.85x = 272

x = 272/0.85

x = 320 minutes

Which ordered pair makes both inequalities true?y > –2x 3y < x – 2?
grin007 [14]
Whatever your choices are, just substitute the x and y values to the equations. If they satisfy the inequality, then they are the solutions. For example, point (7, 1) satisfies the inequalities.

y > -2x
1 > -2(7)
1 > -14 (true)

<span>3y < x – 2
3(1) < 7 - 2
3 < 5 (true)

I hope I was able to help you. Have a good day.</span>

Some students can plant 9 carrots per square foot in the community garden shown. Write a function that can be used to determine
Lunna [17]

Answer:

144 carrots

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C stand for the number of carrots that a student can plant.

We are told that carrots may be planted at a density of 9 carrots/ft^2.

Let A be the area, in ft^2, that can be planted with carrots.  The area of a rectangle is Base x Length (in feet).

We can therefore write:

C = (9 carrots/ft^2)*A

In the garden shown, the area is A = (4 ft) x (4 ft) = 16 ft^2

C = 9 carrots/ft^2)*(16 ft^2)

C = 144 carrots

What's (-5, 3) reflected along x-axis
Anna71 [15]
Whenever you reflect a point over the x axis, the x coordinate stays the same and the y coordinate is negated. In this case, the y coordinate which is 3 will be negated to become -3, and the x coordinate which is -5 will remain the same. Therefore, the new point is (-5,-3).

I hope this helps.
