Answer:
x = 6/7 of a puzzle
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of puzzle : time taken
= 3/4 : 7/8
How much a puzzle can she complete in an hour?
Let
x = number of puzzle to complete
Number of puzzle : time taken
= x : 1
Equate both ratios to solve for x
3/4 : 7/8 = x : 1
3/4 ÷ 7/8 = x / 1
3/4 × 8/7 = x / 1
24/28 = x / 1
Cross product
24 * 1 = 28 * x
24 = 28x
x = 24/28
= 6/7
x = 6/7 of a puzzle
Is that the top or bottom? Assuming it's the top, when distributing the -2 to what's inside the parenthesis, they were correct in multiplying -2•7, but when they multiplied -2 and -y, the answer needs to be positive 2y because they are multiplying double negatives
6x - 3x + 1 = -2
3x = -3
x = -1
y = -3*-1 + 1
y = 3 + 1
y = 4

Answer:</h2>
Step 1: Determine <u><em>b</em></u> by using the point (-6,-2), the given slope, and the slope intercept formula, y = mx + b.
Step 2: Now that we have <u><em>b</em></u>, we can determine the equation of the line.
I didn't use <em>+ (-1)</em> because <em>b</em> is negative. Therefore you need to change the equation from <em>y = 1/6x + (-1)</em> to <em>y = 1/6x - 1</em>.
Each pad of paper cost 3.25. Here is how I found it.
21.75 x 3 = 65.25
75 - 65.25 = 9.75
9.75 / 3 = 3.25
X = 3.25
