Answer:

  210 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason's rate of peeling is ...

  (15 potatoes)/(25 minutes) = 15/25 potatoes/minute = 3/5 potatoes/minute

Janette's rate of peeing potatoes is ...

  (8 potatoes)/(6 minutes) = 4/3 potatoes/minute

Their combined rate is ...

  (3/5 +4/3) = (9 +20)/15 = 29/15 . . . . potatotes/minute

Then the time required for 406 potatoes is ...

  (406 potatoes)/(29/15 potatoes/minute) = (406×15/29) minutes

  = 210 minutes

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Set it up as the following -

The tables show the battery lives (in hours) of two brands of laptops. Which brand's battery lives are more spread out? Explain​
GalinKa [24]
Absolute Mad Deviation is used to see how spread out data is, you find the mean of data then subtract the mean from each number (absolute value) and then find the mean with the subtracted numbers.
Brand A MAD: 2.6925
Brand B MAD: 1.05
It’s Brand A :)

What percent of 50 is 9?
d1i1m1o1n [39]
9 is 18% of 50. So, 50 percent also written as 50% means 50 out of 100 parts. Since there are exactly two 50s in 100, fifty percent is the same number as one half. 50 percent=0.5 in but as a fraction, its 1/2.

HELP ASAP!right answer I’ll give you a crown
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form means

y=mx+c

where m is given its the slope which is -\frac{3}{2} and we have the coordinates x and y which is (4, -5) and we need to find the value of c which is the y-intercept so we insert all these values into the equation so ,

y=mx+c

-5 = -\frac{3}{2}(4)+c

-5=-6+c

c=1

now we know the value of slope which is given -\frac{3}{2} and we found the value of which is 1 so we put these values into our original slope-intercept form equation

y=mx+c\\\\y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1
