Use algebra.
Let the number of stickers each had in the beginning = x stickers.
Ray lost 10 we represent this by
x - 10 ( = no. stickers he has now)
Tom bought 200 so the number of stickers he now has
= x + 200
Rays has 1/4 as much as Tom so we can now create the equation
1/4(x + 200) = x - 10
Soling for x:-
1/4 x + 50 = x - 10
60 = 3/4 x
x = 60 * 4/3 = 80
Answer they had 80 stickers at first.
Answer:
y = 0.265x - 494.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let median age be represent by 'a' and time be represent by 't'
In 1980, median age is given 30
which means that
a₁ = 30
t₁ = 1980
In 2000, the median age is given 35.3
which means that.
a₂ = 35.3
t₂ = 2000
The slope 'm' of the linear equation can be found by:
m = (a₂ - a₁) /(t₂ - t₁)
m = (35.3 - 30)/(2000-1980)
m = 0.265
General form of linear equation is given by:
y = mx + c
y = 0.265x +c
Substitute point (1980,30) in the equation.
30 = 0.265(1980) + c
c = -494.7
Hence the the linear equation can be written as:
y = mx + c
y = 0.265x - 494.7
Answer:
perpindicular slope = -2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3.0 x 10^8 km/s is how far light travels.
3.0 x 10^8 km/s x 60s is how far light travels in a minute
3.0 x 10^8 x 60 x 5 is how far light travels in 5 minutes, and you should get D as your answer.
