It would be 26 repeating itself
The correct slope is -5/2.
The formula for slope is
m = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)
The y-coordinate of the second point is 0, and the y-coordinate of the first point is 2. The x-coordinate of the second point is 0.8 and the x-coordinate of the first point is 0:
m = (0-2)/(0.8-0) = -2/0.8 = -2 ÷ 8/10 = -2 × 10/8 = -2/1 × 10/8 = -20/8 = -5/2
Answer:
4 horses maybe
Step-by-step explanation:
you might subtract the 4 horses from the left to get 8 horses in the right but that's equal to 2 elephants so divide 8 by 2 to get the 1 elephant so 4 maybe
Answer:
a. $0.47 per ounce
b. $0.36 per ounce
c. the gallon size costs less per ounce
Step-by-step explanation:
A unit rate is a rate that is expressed with one unit in the denominator. That is, it is <some amount> per unit. The <some amount> value will generally depend on what unit is chosen. This problem suggests the desired unit is 1 oz of paint.
__
<h3>a.</h3>
Unit cost for a quart:
ratio = cost/ounces = $14.99/(32 oz) ≈ $0.468/oz ≈ $0.47/oz
__
<h3>b.</h3>
Unit cost for a gallon:
ratio = cost/ounces = $45.99/(120 oz) ≈ $0.359/oz ≈ $0.36/oz
__
<h3>c.</h3>
The cost per ounce is less for the gallon size. If at least 3 quarts of paint is needed, then buying it in the gallon size will cost less.
If less than 3 quarts are needed, then a gallon container will cost more than is necessary for the paint required. The "better deal" depends on the amount of paint required.
