Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation for line of slope -6 that passes through (0,-2):

y+2 = -6(x-0)

y = -6x - 2

Plug in (g,-8) and solve for g:

-8 = -6g - 2

g = 1

How much do you save per class by taking the longer-term class: Weight Training, $200 for 18 weeks (54 classes) or $350 for 36 w

Vsevolod [243]

Shorter term class:

You pay $200 for 54 classes in total. So,

$\frac{200}{54} =3.704$ dollars per class (rounded to 3 decimal places)

Longer term class:

You pay $350 for 108 classes in total, So,

$\frac{350}{108} =3.241$ dollars per class (rounded to 3 decimal places)

Hence, by taking longer term classes, you save around $3.704-3.241=0.463$ dollars.

Rounding to 2 decimal places, you save $0.46 per class.

ANSWER: You save $0.46 per class.

A tennis racket at at sport city costs $180 and is discounted 15% the same model racket costs$200 at tennis world and is on sale

MaRussiya [10]

Mate, stop repeating questions, wait until your question has been answered.

15% of 180 is (180 * 0.15) = 27.

180 - 27 = $153 paid.

20% of 200 = (200 * 0.2) = 40.

200 - 40 = $160 paid.

Therefore Sport City offered the better deal.

if two pyramids are similar and the ratio between the lengths of their edges is 2;7 what is the ratio of their volumes? ...?

jok3333 [9.3K]

The answer is 8:343.

We can use Galileo's square cube law to calculate the ratio between two similar pyramids. The law is used to describe the change of the area or the volume of the shape when their dimensions increase or decrease:
$\frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{l_1}{l_2} )^{3} \\$ 
 
V₁ and V₂ - volumes of pyramids,
l₁ and l₂ - the edges of pyramids.

 $\frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{l_1}{l_2} )^{3} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{2}{7} )^{3} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{2^{3}}{7^{3}} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{8}{343} \\$
