Answer:

o -1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is the ratio of rise/run.

We the line passes through (0,3) and (6,0)

Rise = y2 - y1 = 0 - 3 = -3

Run = x2 - x1 = 6 - 0 = 6

Slope = -3/6 = -1/2

Solution:

Step-1: Choose any two points on the line.

My chosen points: (0,3) and (6,0)

Step-2: Find the slope of the line.

y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁ = Slope
=> 0 - 3/6 - 0 = Slope of line
=> -3/6 = Slope of line
=> -1/2 = Slope of line.

The result matches with Option C.

Option C is correct.

I hate ratios I don't understand the point of them...

Answer:

2 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Put the given numbers in the expression and simplify:

bikes before : total bikes

= (bikes before) : (bikes before) + (bikes bought)

= 6 : (6 +21)

= 6 : 27

= 2 : 9

Additional comment

A question like this would do little to convince you ratios have some usefulness. There appears to be no point whatever to knowing the fraction of older bikes.

Ratios are used many places in the real world. Perhaps the ratios you encounter most frequently are tax rates.

If you spend any time cooking, you know that certain ratios of ingredients produce better taste and/or texture than other ratios, and you know that (generally) changing the quantity a recipe produces will involve changing all the ingredient amounts by the same ratio.

Finance, health, time, diet budgets are often specifies as ratios: 14% APR, 2.3 infant deaths per 1000 live births, 2 hours outside class for each hour in class, 25% of calories from fat, and so on.

Of course, chemistry is all about ratios. CO₂ and H₂O are perhaps some of the more important ratios in the world right now. These specific ratios of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms make substances that are both life-giving and life-threatening. Much study is directed at determining and maintaining appropriate ratios of these substances relative to others.

The equation C = 20n + 35 represents the relationship between the cost of school volleyball uniforms, C, in dollars, and the num

Margaret [11]

The equation represent a linear relation with the y-intercept

representing the amount of initial fee.

Correct response:

1. 28 volleyball uniforms

2. Price per uniform

3. Initial flat order fee

4. 10 fewer volleyball uniform

<h3>Methods used for finding the above values</h3>

The given equation that represents the relationship between the cost of school volleyball uniform is; C = 20·n + 35

Where;

C = The uniform costs

n = The number of volleyball uniform ordered

The maximum amount the school has to spend = $600

1. The number of uniforms the school can buy is given by setting C = 600 as follows;

C = 20·n + 35

Therefore;

600 = 20·n + 35

20·n = 600 - 35 = 565

$n = \dfrac{565}{20} = \mathbf{28.25}$

Rounding down to the nearest whole number, we have;

The number of uniforms the school can buy, n = 28 volleyball uniforms.

2. The number 20 represent the additional cost for each extra uniform, which is the unit cost therefore;

20 represents a $20 price per uniform.

3. The 35 in the equation represents an initial flat fee, such as an

ordering or initial fee, which is fixed.

Therefore;

The number 35 represent the fixed cost for producing the uniforms

4. The price per uniform of $30 changes the coefficient of n from 20 to 30 as follows;

C = 30·n + 35

The number of uniforms the school can by with $600 is therefore;

$n = \dfrac{600 - 35}{30} = \mathbf{18.8 \overline 3}$

Which gives;

The number of uniforms the school can purchase at $30 per uniform is n = 18 volleyball uniforms

The difference in the number of uniforms purchased = 28 - 18 = 10

Therefore;

The school can purchase 10 fewer uniforms at $30 per uniform
