Answer:

Every book is 8 dollars but you have to subtract 10, so like this:

Step-by-step explanation:

p(x) = 8x - 10 Lets say you sell 2 books

p(2) = 8(2) - 10

p(2) = 16 - 10

p(2) = 6 You would make 6 dollars.

Mr. Hamilton decorates his U.S. History classroom by putting up pictures of the presidents. The wall is 9.75 feet long. In the c

Archy [21]

Answer:

8 pictures

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Window = 5\frac{3}{4}ft$

$Wall = 9.75ft$

$Pictures = 6\ inches$

Required

Determine the number of pictures

First, we need to calculate the length of the available space

This is calculated by subtracting the width of the window from the width of the wall.

$Space = Wall - Window$

$Space = 9.75 - 5\frac{3}{4}$

Convert fraction to decimal

$Space = 9.75 - 5.75$

$Space = 4ft$

Since, the pictures are placed side by side.

This means that, there's no empty space between them.

Number of pictures is:

$Number = \frac{Space}{Pictures}$

$Number = \frac{4\ ft}{6\ in}$

Convert feet to inches

$Number = \frac{4 * 12\ in}{6\ in}$

$Number = \frac{48\ in}{6\ in}$

$Number = \frac{48}{6}$

$Number = 8$

<em>Hence, 8 pictures can fit the wall</em>

Find the slope of the line that connects the points (6, -2) and ( 10, 4)

Ivanshal [37]

Slope: 1.5

Work: I used the slope formula method which is y2 - y1/ x2 - x1. After plugging it in, the new equation is 4 - (-2) / 10 - 6. After subtraction, I had gotten 6/4. And when you divide 6/4, you get 1.5

I hope this helps. :)
