Answer:

  2.  15 cents/min

  3.  7/4 gallon/week = 1.75 gal/wk

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to convert the units without changing the rate. You do this by making use of conversion factors. Each conversion factor has a value of 1, but changes the units. (It has a value of 1 because the quantity in the numerator is equal to the quantity in the denominator.)

In general, you know that when the numerator and denominator of a fraction are the same thing, they cancel, leaving a value of 1. When a variable (or unit) is involved, the cancelled variables (or units) simply disappear.

For example, multiplying (9 dollars)×(100 cents)/(1 dollar) gives ...

  (9\text{ dollar})\times\dfrac{100\text{ cents}}{1\text{ dollar}}=\dfrac{9\times100\times\text{cents}\times\text{dollar}}{1\times\text{ dollar}}=\dfrac{900\text{ cents}}{1}=900\text{ cents}

The units of "dollar" cancel, leaving cents. Note that we did this by choosing a conversion factor with units we want in the place we want, and units we don't want on the other side of the fraction bar.

__

2) We want cents in the numerator, so our conversion factor will be (100 cents)/(1 dollar). And we want minutes in the denominator, so our other conversion factor will be (1 hour)/(60 minutes). Multiplying by these conversion factors, our rate becomes ...

  \dfrac{\$9}{1\text{ hr}}\times\dfrac{100\text{ cents}}{\$1}\times\dfrac{1\text{ hr}}{60\text{ min}}=\dfrac{9\times100\times1\text{ cents}}{1\times1\times60\text{ min}}\\\\=\dfrac{900}{60}\cdot\dfrac{\text{cents}}{\text{min}}=\boxed{15\text{ cents/min}}

__

3) We want gallons in the numerator, so that conversion will be done by (1 gal)/(8 pt). We want weeks in the denominator, so the conversion for that is (7 day)/(1 week).

  \dfrac{2\text{ pt}}{1\text{ day}}\times\dfrac{1\text{ gal}}{8\text{ pt}}\times\dfrac{7\text{ day}}{1\text{ week}}=\dfrac{2\times1\times7}{1\times8\times1}\cdot\dfrac{\text{gal}}{\text{week}}=\boxed{\dfrac{7}{4}\text{ gal/week}}

Can someone please explain how to do number 9.
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

x<15, probably

Step-by-step explanation:

maybe multiply 2 to each side to eliminate the fraction. so 3x+15<60. subtract 15 to isolate the variable term so 3x<45. divide by 3 to isolate x so x<15. check the work. is the inequality true for all values of x less than 15? let's try the first possible integer value, 14, to be sure. 3(14)+15= 57. so 57/2<30. now 57/2 is 28.5 and 28.5<30 so it seems right

Slope of -5 2). (3,9)
podryga [215]

Answer:

The slope of the given two points is m=\frac{7}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points are (-5,2) and (3,9)

To find the slope with these two points

Let (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{2},y_{2}) be the given points

By using Slope Formula:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

m=\frac{9-2}{3-(-5)}

m=\frac{9-2}{3+5} ( subtracting and adding the corresponding terms)

m=\frac{7}{8}

Therefore slope is m=\frac{7}{8}

The slope of the given two points is m=\frac{7}{8}
