Answer: y= 40x-10 , where = number of lawns.

Step-by-step explanation:

In linear equation y= mx+b with one variable x, m= slope , b= y-intercept.

[Slope rate of change of y with respect to x, y-intercept = initial value of y at x=0]

Given: Peter cuts lawns and makes $40 per lawn.

let x = number of lawns

i.e. slope = $40

He spends $10/day in work expenses.

i.e.  y-intercept = -10  [for each day]

So equation becomes : y= 40x-10 , where = number of lawns.

Why would i use a straightedge to measure the length of a segment?
Simora [160]
You would measure the length of a segment with a straightedge because it is free from curves and can help measure a segment because it is straight.

The ice cream shop sells sundaes for $2 each and banana splits for $3 each. One day, the shop sold 8 more sundaes than banana sp
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

$82 sundaes

$74 banana split

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one :

Given data

Cost of sundaes =$2 each

Cost of banana split =$3 each

Let the number of sundaes bought be x

And the number of banana split bought be y

The total is x+y

The shop sold 8 more Sundaes than the Banana split

x=8+y—-------1

Total amount made = $156

Therefore the system of equation for the situation is

x=8+y----—----------1

2x+3y=156---------2

But x=8+y

8+y+y=156

8+2y=156

2y=156-8

2y=148

Divide both sides by 2

y=148/2

y=74

On That day they sold $74 banana split

And also they sold x=8+74=$82 sundaes

What is the value of x?
QveST [7]

Answer:

72°

Explanation:

Given that line J and line K are parallel, we can safely assume that line m is the transversal for the following question. We can also remove line l so that we can focus on line m instead.

Using the rule of <u>Alternate Exterior Angle</u> theorem, x would equal to 72°.
