<u>Answer-</u>
<em>The total amount of water wasted this year is 6716 gallons.</em>
<u>Solution-</u>
A study indicated that the citizens of Morris-town wasted 5840 gallons of water last year.
This year they wasted 15% more than that amount they wasted previous year.
15% of 5840 is,

The total amount of water wasted this year =
The amount of water wasted previous year + 15% more of the amount of that
= 5840 + 876
= 6716 gallons
Therefore, the total amount of water wasted this year is 6716 gallons
Answer:
2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the slope of the line with x intercept 9 and y intercept of -2
Given that the equation of the line is y = mx+b
x intercept occurs when y = 0
The coordinate of x intercept is (9,0)
y intercept occurs at x = 0
The coordinate of y intercept is (0, -2)
Slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1
m = -2-0/0-9
m = -2/-9
m = 2/9
Hence the required slope is 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
4+7=11
11+(7+4)=22
22+(7+8)=37
Every step 7+4n you must add
Answer:
the slope is 1
Step-by-step explanation:
if you start at (0,0) and go up one and then right on the line lines up with the squares so since slope is
you go up one and the right one which makes it
so the answer is one.
Answer:
{x=2,y=2
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation 1:
Multiply both sides of the equation by a coefficient
{ 4(2x-y)=2*4
-5x+4y=-2
Apply Multiplicative Distribution Law
{8x-4y=2*4,-5x+4y=-2
8x-4y+(-5x+4y)=8+(-2)
Remove parentheses
8x-4y-5x+4y=8-2
Cancel one variable
8x-5x=8-2
Combine like terms
3x=8-2
Calculate the sum or difference
3x=6
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of the variable
x=6/3
Calculate the product or quotient
x=2
Equation two:
{-5+4y=-2, x=2
-5*2+4y=-2
Calculate the product or quotient
-10+4y =-2
Reduce the greatest common factor (GCF) on both sides of the equation
-5+2y=-1
Rearrange unknown terms to the left side of the equation
2y=-1+5
Calculate the sum or difference
2y=4
Divide both sides of the equation by the coefficient of the variable
y=4/2
y=2
Hope this helps!!
