a company donates 935 pencils to a school. the pencils are divided evenly among 9 classrooms. the rest of the pencils are given
wariber [46]
The problem deals with a division and the rest of it, that is dividing the total amount of pencils into 9 classrooms and the rest, lets express it as fraction:
935/9 = 103 + 8/9
that is, if we multiply 103*9 we get 927 and are 8 pencils left over, therefore, 8 pencils are donated to the library and each classroom gets 103 pencils, in total 935 pencils are donated.

The area of a rectangle is 38.25 square yards and its base is 9 yards. What is the height? Do not round your answer.
Romashka [77]

Answer:

4.25 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = Base x Height

or

Height = Area of Rectangle ÷ Base

In this case, Area =38.25 sq yards and Base = 9 yards

Height = 38.25 ÷ 9 = 4.25 yards

Which of the following quantities are inversely proportional? WILL GIVE BRAINIEST
Effectus [21]

Answer:

option 1

option 3

option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Inversely proportional means "one quality increases, the other decreases " or "one quantity decreases ,other increases. " Inverse relantionship, that's it.

option 1:

Since the volume is given as 56 and we know the volume is area of base * height, to keep the volume at constant [56], if height increases, area of base would need to decrease, and vice versa. So Inversely proportional.

option 2:

The time spend in plowing a field with a tractor with increase when we area using more fuel.So more fuel used means more time spent. So these are directly proportional, Not inverse.

option 3:

Since the price is a constant, the amount of length we buy more,the price per one yard HAS to decrease, and vice versa. So ,this is Inverse relantionship.

option 4:

If the number of identical tractors. increase, it will take less time to plow the set 358 acre farm. And vice versa. So this is Inversely proportional as well.

Write an equation of a line passing through the point (4,-9) and parallel to the line 3x-6y=30
sesenic [268]

The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where

m represents slope

c represents y intercept

The equation of the given line is expressed as

3x - 6y = 30

Rearranging it so that it will look like the slope intercept form, it becomes

6y = 3x - 30

Dividing both sides by 6, it becomes

6y/6 = 3x/6 - 30/6

y = x/2 - 5

Looking at the equation, slope, m = 1/2

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have equal slope. This means that the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 1/2

To determine the y intercept, c of the line passing through the point (4, - 9), we would substitute

x = 4, y = - 9 and m = 1/2 into the slope intercept equation. It becomes

- 9 = 1/2 * 4 + c

- 9 = 2 + c

c = - 9 - 2

c = - 11

By substtuting m = 1/2 and c = - 11 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line would be

y = x/2 - 11
