The origin is (0,0)
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 2/3
(0,0)...x = 0 and y = 0
now we sub and find b, the y int
0 = 2/3(0) + b
0 = b
so ur equation is y = 2/3x + 0...or just y = 2/3x
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
The trick is to pick something that should be very easy to get an answer to. If you use a calculator, you are not estimating. 80 divide by 4 is like 8 divide by 4 which gives you 2. Then just add a zero. Here's another one you can try. Put your calculator away to do it. 12 chicken noodle soup cans cost 14 dollars. About how much does 1 can cost
no cheating. No calculator. Is the cost of 1 can more or less than a dollar? If you said more, you've estimated correctly.
Try it the other way. Suppose one can of the soup costs 0.95 cents. How many will 12 cans cost? More or less than 12 dollars.
If you said less, you are estimating correctly. The most useful gift you can take away from any math class is estimation.
Start by converting 300 feet to miles and 2.92 seconds to hours.
300 feet 1 mile
----------- x -------------- = ?
1 5280 feet
2.92 sec 1 hr
----------------- * ---------------- = ?
1 3600 sec
Reduce each of the above fractions. Then convert 300 feet
-------------- to the
2.92 sec
equivalent speed / rate in mph using the converstion factors you derived earlier.
Answer:
39 students in the drama club, 25 in the yearbook club.
Explanation:
X=number of students in the drama club
Y=number of students in the yearbook club
X+Y=64
X−14=y
Subtract the equations
X−X+Y+14=64−Y
Y+14=64−Y
Subtract 14, add Y
Y+Y+14−14=64−14−Y+Y
2Y=50
Divide by 2
Y=25
X+25=64
Subract 25
X=64−25
X=39
