Answer:

About 12 peanuts.  This is 20% of 60 (nuts and peanuts together)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  there be a total of n pieces in the mixture.  Then, focusing on raisins, 0.80n = 48, so that n = 60.  Then the number of peanuts is 0.20(60) = 12.

Seth's father is thinking of buying his son a summer movie pass for $30 dollars. With the pass, matiness cost $4 each.
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

Seth saved $90.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Find out how much would be spent without buying the movie pass.

Multiply the amount of money that one would spend for each movie, by the number of movies one saw.

8 * 30 = 240

2.Find out the amount that was actually spent

Multiply the amount that was actually spent on each movie, by the number of movies that were seen. Then add the additional cost of the pass.

(4 * 30) + 30

= 120 + 30

= 150

3. Find the difference between the two values.

Subtract the amount that one was supposed to spend by the amount one did spend.

240 - 150

= 90

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-6,1) and (-2,5). Put your answer in fully reduced point-slope fo
irinina [24]
  • (-6,1)
  • (-2,5)

Slope:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto m=\dfrac{5-1}{-2+6}=\dfrac{4}{4}=1

Point-Slope form

\\ \sf\longmapsto y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

\\ \sf\longmapsto y-1=1(x+6)

\\ \sf\longmapsto y-1=x+6

\\ \sf\longmapsto x-y+7=0
