The custodian will be able to repaint 4 6/7 bookcases with 1 4/7 gallons of paint because you have to divide the fractions 1 4/7 and 1/3. 1 4/7 divided by 1/3. You’d turn 1 4/7 into a mixed fraction, change the division sign to a multiplication sign, and flip 1/3. Now the equation is 11/7 • 3/1. Multiply 11 and 3 which equals 33 then multiply 7 and 1 which equals 7. The fraction you get should be 33/7 and then you simplify it and it becomes 4 6/7 which is the answer.

What is the slope of this ?
zysi [14]

Answer:

Essentially, slope is rise/run. Rise is how many units up the graph, and run is how far to the left or right it goes. Rise will be negative if it's going down, and run will be negative if it's going left. There's two ways to find the slope in this case.

1. Stick to the more visual aspect of it, and count how many units up from one point to the next point. Point (1,2) is 2 units up from point (0,0). Then you count how many units right or left it goes. In this case, it's 1 towards the right. This means the rise/run comes out to be 2/1, which means the slope=2.

2. Look at the equations. y=mx+b is the linear format for these lines. y is the y coordinate, m is the slope, x is the x coordinate, and b is the y intercept (the point where x=0). These two lines have shared slope values, which means the slope for both of them is 2.

Alecsey [184]

Answer: 101

Step-by-step explanation:

45 women total

17 women will not watch the game

So 33 people did not want to watch the game and 17 are women

33-17 = 16 men who won’t watch the game

So 40 men who will and 16 men who won’t equals 56 men and 45 women

56+45= 101

You are told that sprinklers run for the same amount of time. lets refer to this time as T.
you are told that 4 sprinkles run one at a time for 50 minutes total. that means that T should be 50/4 = 12.5 minutes = 12 minutes and 30 seconds
