Answer:

she makes $22.80 a day

Step-by-step explanation:

since she makes $0.57 per box and averages at 40 boxes a day, we multiply 40 and 0.57. 40 x 0.57 = 22.8, or $22.80.

hope this helped!

The original price of a jacket was 72.50$ Maria used a coupon for 20% off to buy the jacket. How much did she pay before tax?

Afina-wow [57]

Answer: Maria payed $58.00 for her jacket BEFORE tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer to this question, we must first multiply 72.50 by 0.20. After doing so, we get 14.5 (this is the sale money). Finally, we subtract $72.50-14.5 to get out answer, 58 dollars.

Solve for x. 3x+1/14=2x/8

Ludmilka [50]

It depends if it is
1. 3x+(1/14)=(2x)/8 or
2. (3x+1)/14=(2x)/8

if it is 1

1.
3x+(1/14)=2x/8
simplify 2x/8
2x/8=x/4
3x+(1/14)=x/4
find least common multiple of 14 and 4
factors of 14=2 and 7
factors of 4 are 2 and 2 so LCM=2 times 2 times 7=28
multiply both sides by 28
84x+2=7x
subtract 7x from both sides
77x+2=0
subtract 2 from both sides
77x=-2
divide both sides by 77
x=-2/77

2.
(3x+1)/14=2x/8
simpify 2x/8
2x/8=x/4
(3x+1)/14=x/4
find least common multiple of 14 and 4
factors of 14=2 and 7
factors of 4 are 2 and 2 so LCM=2 times 2 times 7=28
multiply both sides by 28
(2)(3x+1)=7x
distribute
6x+2=7x
subtract 6x from both sides
2=x

What is the slope of the line with endpoints at (-3, 6) and (5.-6)?

podryga [215]

Answer:

-3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m=(-6-6)/(5-(-3))

m=-12/(5+3)

m=-12/8

simplify

m=-3/2

7. Which of the following can be determined from the graph below?

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The ordered pair (6,25) is a solution to both

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x+40$ and $y=\frac{5}{3}x+15$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 7)

<em>step 1</em>

Find the equation of the line with positive slope

take the points (0,15) and (9,30)

<em>Find the slope</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the given values

$m=\frac{30-15}{9-0}$

$m=\frac{15}{9}$

simplify

$m=\frac{5}{3}$

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=\frac{5}{3}$

$b=15$

substitute

$y=\frac{5}{3}x+15$

<em>step 2</em>

Find the equation of the line with negative slope

take the points (0,40) and (8,20)

<em>Find the slope</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the given values

$m=\frac{20-40}{8-0}$

$m=-\frac{20}{8}$

simplify

$m=-\frac{5}{2}$

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=-\frac{5}{2}$

$b=40$

substitute

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x+40$

step 3

Find the solution of the system

we know that

The solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs

The intersection point is (6,25) ----> see the graph

therefore

The ordered pair (6,25) is a solution to both $y=-\frac{5}{2}x+40$ and

$y=\frac{5}{3}x+15$

NASA launches a rocket at t = 0 seconds. Its height, in meters above sea level, as a function of time is

balu736 [363]

If h is m above the ocean and your trying to find when the rocket reaches that ocean… as the function gives the height above the ocean at a given time, when the height equals 0 the rocket will have reached the ocean so solve for t when h=0. working out in the photo. i got t=48.88seconds
