B. y = 7x

7x is the steady rate of 7 gallons per minute. The number of minutes can also be plugged into x to find the volume of the pool after x minutes.

B. y=7x

y represents the amount of water in the pool after x minutes, that means it's going to be the result.

x represents minutes.

you are multiplying it because it's per minutes

Which is the equation of a line that has a slope of -2/3 and passes through point (-3,-1)?
Fantom [35]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use Point Slope Form:

  • y - Y1 = m (x - X1)
  • m is the slope
  • Y1 & X1 is a point on the line
  • The form allows you to identify the slope & the point on the line

About Problem:

  • Since -2/3 is the slope, it represents m in y - Y1 = m (x - X1) form.
  • -3 represents X1 in y - Y1 = m (x - X1) form
  • -1 represents Y1  in y - Y1 = m (x - X1) form

y - Y1 = m (x - X1)

y - -1 = -2/3 (x - -3)  ---- This is in Point Slope Form

If you want to solve it, & put it in Slope Intercept form, it would look like this:

y = mx + b

y = -2/3 - 2 --- This is in Slope intercept Form.... I might've solved it wrong... I'm not sure...


Really really sorry if I'm incorrect...

B. The sum of three numbers is 51. The second number is three more than the first number, and the third number is
Svetach [21]

Answer:

12, 15, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 1st # = x

Let 2nd # = x+3

Let 3rd # = 2x

Your equation is: x + (x+3) + 2x = 51

Add up all the x: x + x +3 +2x =51

Subtract 3 from both sides: 4x + 3 - 3 = 51 - 3

Divide 4 from both sides: 4x / 4 = 48 / 4

Your 1st number is x = 12

For the 2nd # it is 3 more than x so 12 + 3 = 15

For the 3rd # it is 2 times x so 2(12) = 24

Check your answers by adding up the numbers you solved: 12 + 15 +24 = 51

Does it equal to 51 as stated in the question? Yes, answers check out.

A ceiling 6 feet by 7 feet can be painted for $52. find the cost of painting a ceiling 18 feet by 21 feet, all things being equa
kykrilka [37]
6 feet * 7 feet = 42 feet²

18 feet * 21 feet = 378 feet²

42 feet²  was painted for $52

1 feet²  will be painted for $52/42

378 feet² will then be painted for:  ($52/42) * 378

                                                       = $468

Hence 18 feet by 21 feet will be painted for $468

Hope this helps.

What is the equation for the parabola that<br> has a focus at (-7, 6) and a directrix of x<br> 1?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Parabola's equation is

y

=

1

16

(

x

−

7

)

2

+

1

and vertex is

(

7

,

1

)

.

Explanation:

Parabola is locus of a point which moves so that its distance from a given point calld focus and a given line ccalled directrix is always constant.

Let the point be

(

x

,

y

)

. Here focus is

(

,

5

)

and distance from focus is

√

(

x

(

y

. Its distance from directrix

y

=

i.e.

y

is

Hence equaion of parabola is
