Answer:

5 erasers.

Step-by-step explanation:

0.35e + 0.15p = 2.80

e + p = 12

e = 12 - p

0.35(12 - p) + 0.15p = 2.80

4.2 - 0.35p + 0.15p = 2.80

4.2 - 0.2p = 2.80

-0.2p = -1.4

-0.2p/-0.2p = -1.4/-0.2

p = 7

e = 12 - 7

e = 5

(3x) + (x+60) = 180

4x + 60 = 180

Subtract 60 from both sides

4x = 120

Divide 4 from both sides

x = 30

Let m = 6x +5.<br> Which equation is equivalent to (6x + 5)^2 – 10 = -18x – 15 in terms of m?
aev [14]

Answer: m² + 3m - 10 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

From the expression, considering

6x + 5 = m

The original expression

( 6x + 5 )² - 10 = -18 - 15

Factorize the right hand expression,

-18 - 15 = -3( 6x - 15 )

Since m = 6x + 5 , we now substitute for m in that expression

m² - 10 = -3m

Now re arrange the equation in the form,

ax² - bx + c = 0

Now back to the equation,

m² + 3m - 10 = 0,

So the equivalent equation will be

m² + 3m - 10 = 0

Answer: D

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to finding the line perpendicular to the one given is teh slope. The slope is the opposite reciprocal of the original line.

m=3

perpendicular m=-1/3

Now that we know the slope, we can see which of our answer choices have -1/3 as the slope. We can see D is the only option that has -1/3 for slope.

Write an exponential function in the form y=ab^xy=ab
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let y=ab^x

x=0,y=18

18=ab^0=a

a=18

y=18b^x

when x=2,y=1152

1152=18b^{2}\\b^{2}=\frac{1152}{18}=64=8^2\\b=8\\so~y=18(8)^x
