balu736 [363]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So, 8% is the same as 8/100 or .08. I'll be using .08 to make things more simple. Now, if she earned $25 last week and she saves 8% of it then, the equation to find how much she saved would be 25 times .08. Simply plug that into a calculator to get the answer $2.

Amy is helping plan her school's new basketball court. The west edge of the basketball court is located on the line y = 2x + 5.

ipn [44]

Answer:

Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96

So, Option 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The east edge cannot intersect with the west edge means that two lines are parallel.

If the two lines are parallel then they have same slope. We need to find the slopes of given lines and check which line has slope same as slope of west edge.

Slope of west edge.

y = 2x + 5

The standard equation for slope intercept form is:

y = mx+b

where m is the slope. So, m= 2

Now finding line for east edge.

Option 1.

Convert each given equation to standard slope intercept form and find the slope.

2x -y =96

-y = -2x +96

Multiply with -1

y = 2x -96

m = 2

Option 2.

-2x -y = 96

-y = 2x +96

y = -2x-96

m = -2

Option 3

-y-2x =48

-y = 2x +48

y = -2x -48

m = -2

Option 4.

y+2x = 48

y = -2x+48

m = -2

So, only line of Option 1 has slope = 2 which is equal to the slope of west edge.

Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96

So, Option 1 is correct.

Write an expression that can be used to check the quotient of 646 ÷ 3.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

The answer to the math problem is 215 1/3,

but what the question posed means I'm not sure.

You can check this quotient by:

3*215 + 1 = 646

Brandon rode in a taxi that charges a flat fee of $2.25 and an additional $0.40 per mile of his trip. If he paid $6.80 for the c

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

11 $\frac{3}{8}$ miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how many miles Brandon rode, we can create an equation in slope-intercept form: y = mx + b

$2.25 is the flat fee, or the unchanging variable. This is our y-intercept, or b.

$0.40 is the changing variable, as it changes value depending on the amount of miles ridden. This is our slope, or m.

We know Brandon spent $6.80 on the cab ride. So, this is our y.

We get the equation: 6.80 = 0.40x + 2.25.

To solve, first subtract 2.25 from both sides of the equation:

6.80 - 2.25 = 0.40x + 2.25 - 2.25

We get: 4.55 = 0.40x

Now, just divide by 0.40 on both sides:

4.55 ÷ 0.40 = 0.40x ÷ 0.40

We get: 11.375 = x

So, Brandon rode for 11.375 miles. When converted to a mixed number, we get 11 $\frac{3}{8}$ .
