Keiko brought $51.75 to the art supply store. She bought a brush, a sketchbook, and a paint set. The brush was 1/6 as much as th

e sketchbook, and the sketchbook cost 3/4 the cost of the paint set. Keiko had $3.00 left over after buying these items.

Step-by-step explanation:

[(1/6 × 3/4) + (3/4) + 1] n = 51.75 -3

(⅛ + ¾ +1)n = 48.75

15/8 n = 48.75

1.875 n = 48.75

n = 48.75/1.875

n = 26

so, the cost of :

the brush = ⅛×26 = $ 3.25

the sketchbook = ¾×26 = $ 19.5

the pain set = $ 26

What is 1/8 divided by 2
slavikrds [6]
When dividing 1/8 by 2
we have to first take the reciprocal of 2 
reciprocal is when the numerator and denominator are exchanged
2 when written as a fraction is \frac{2}{1}
we need to find the reciprocal of \frac{2}{1} which is \frac{1}{2}
then 
\frac{1}{2} of \frac{1}{8}
when 'of' function is used it means to multiply the 2 fractions 
when multiplying fractions multiply the numerators by numerators and multiply denominators by denominators 
is \frac{1}{2} * \frac{1}{8} =  \frac{1}{16}
answer is \frac{1}{16}

$15 is found as the slope (see attachment), and because it's rise over run (15/1) then that is making $15 for every one hour worked.

The graph of the line passes through the points (0,6) and (3,0). What is the equation of this line?
MakcuM [25]
<h2><u>Answers plus Step-by-step ex</u>planations:</h2>

The graph of the line passes through the points (0,6) and (3,0)

<u> (a) The equation of the line AB:</u>

<u />

The slope of the line is;

Slope = change in y ÷ change in x = \frac{0 - 6}{3 - 0} = -2

Picking another point (x,y) on the line;

Slope = \frac{y - 0}{x - 3} = -2

Cross-multiplying gives;

y = -2x + 6 (which is the equation of line AB)

<u>(b) The gradient of the line perpendicular to AB:</u>

<u />

The products of slopes of two perpendicular lines = -1

Since the slope of our line = -2,

We assume the perpendicular line has a slope of a,

So a × -2 = -1

a = \frac{1}{2}

So the slope (gradient) of the perpendicular line = \frac{1}{2}

<u>(c) The equation of the line passing through point A and perpendicular to AB:</u>

<u />

Point A is the point (0,6) on the graph.

A line that passes through this point and is perpendicular to AB must have a gradient (or slope) of \frac{1}{2}

Taking another point (x,y) on the perpendicular line;

Slope = change in y ÷ change in x

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{y - 6}{x - 0}

Cross-multiplying gives;

2y - 12 = x

2y = x + 12

y = \frac{x}{2} + 6 (the equation of the perpendicular line via A)

Please help me!!!!!!!!!!! im desprit and almost out of time​
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Well depends on where you want to live.

The Northeast includes Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, these are all great traveling places full of history monuments.

The Northeast has plenty of natural untouched land, are well established and fully developed, it has the best of the four seasons to see, (I think fall is the best though.)

The economy is not only stable, but it is also very strong. Also crimes rates are low.

There are MANY chocolate factories ( Hershey´s Chocolate) That let you come in and have a look around and they show you how the chocolate is made!!! Chocolate factories are known all over the world and receive a large number of visitors and foreign tourists.

In the South you have Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, District of Columbia, Florida, Giorgia, Kentucky, Lousiana, Maryland, Mississippi, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.

Its more conservative in the South, and the central role is played by agriculture (tobacco, sugarcane, cotton, rice). There is warm climate in the South so if you like warmer climates, South is the place for you but you will run into rednecks and hillbillies there. There is the Oak Alley Plantation (Vacherie, Louisiana) It was the setting for 1994 film "Interview with the vampire"; the majestic house has been restored to its former glory.

In the Midwest your looking at North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, Illinois, Kansas, Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio. there is a lot of Plains and Plateaus. The Great Plains stretch across the Midwest from Missouri and Nebraska, where there are relatively flat grasslands with treeless areas and fertile soil suited for farming, you've got mountains, hills, lakes, rivers, valleys and ravines. Just a lot of open space and open country that has AMAZING scenery!! Not only that!!! But Mount Rushmore is in South Dakota. It is the most iconic American memorial in the USA. The sculpture is carved into the cliff side of the Black Hills Mountains featuring the faces of four former American presidents: Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Roosevelt.

Now to look at the open West country where the states Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming are. You will find rainforests of the northwest and the Rocky mountains! There is the the Great Plains, and the Gulf coast. And in the West thats where the Spanish missions happened!! In the 18th and 19th centuries, the Spanish crown established missions throughout the American West with the goal of converting Native Americans to Christianity.

So it all depend on what kind of weather you wanna be in and what kind of places you wanna see!!!
