Answer:

600 minutes total

Step-by-step explanation:

Inch = 100

1/100 every minute

100/100 = 1 inch and 100 minutes

600/100 = 6 inch and 600 minutes

Answer:

y=-1/100x+6 or y=-1x+600

Step-by-step explanation:

6 inches is the Y intercept (600,0) if measuring by 1/100 or (6,0)

Since the wax is melting, the slope  is going to be negative

y=mx+6 or y=mx+600 either is fine and would yield the same results

y=-.01x+6, y=1/100x+6 or y=-1x+600

To explainn why 6 and 600 are both fine, 6 is measuring with full inches while the 600 is measuring with .01 inches. One graph will be full numbers while the other will be decimals.

Please help me only say something if you really know the answer
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with 7,000, after 0 years there will be no increase so you still have 7,000.

The fist year you increase by 5% of 7,000.

.05x7000=350

You have a 350 increase, add that to the original 7000 to find the actual population after 1 year (domain value 1).

After 1 year: 7350

For year 2 there is an increase of 5% again, only this time we find 5% of 7350 since that was the previous years population.

.05x7350=368

Add that to previous population.

368+7350=7718

At this point so far the yearly populations have been (7000, 7350, 7718)

Answer choice B is the only one to have this progression.

Lilian says that 25% of a number will always be less than 75% of any other number. Complete one inequality to support Lillian's
rjkz [21]
She is incorrect cause if we take the number 20 and take 25% of it it equals 5 so now 20 is only 15. They if we take 75% away from 20 is equals 15 so then we only have 5 from 20 left. Therefore she’s incorrect because 75% leaves 5/20 and 25% leaves 15/20. Hope that makes sense.

"If you subtract 12 from my number and multiply the difference by -15 ​, the result is -140​." What is ​'s ​number?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The answer would be 2.7. Am not very sure though

Step-by-step explanation:

So what you do is

for example the unkown number is x and the answer you get is y

12-x=y * -15=-140

-140/-15=9.33 (this is y the answer)

12-x=9.3

12-9.3=2.7

To check your answer

12-2.7=9.3

9.3 * -15=-139.5 if you round it then it would be -140
