Let's say there were "x" in 1996, therefore, "x" is the 100%.
10 years later, there are 12440, and that is 1126% "more" than "x", since "x" is 100%, 1126% more than that is 100% + 1126%, or 1226%.
so, 12440 is really 1226% of whatever "x" happened to have been back then in 1996.
now, since we know that 12440 is 1226%, what is "x" then?
Rewrite the given equation in slope intercept form:
5 y = 10 – 2 x
y = - 0.4 x + 2
Since the two lines are parallel, therefore they have
similar slope which is – 0.4, so the equation is:
y = - 0.4 x + b
Given that x = 5, y = -4, find for b:
-4 = - 0.4 (5) + b
b = -2
So the answer is:
y = - 0.4 x – 2
or
<span>2 x + 5 y = - 10</span>
Answer:
Part A. After 7 hours the amount charged will be the same
Part B. The cost of renting the bike for that many hours (7) will be 60$.
Step-by-step explanation:
5h + 25 = 6h + 18
5h - 6h = 18 - 25
-h = -7
h = -7/-1
h = 7
Company A.
y = 5h + 25
y = (5*7) + 25
y = 35 + 25
y = 60
Company B.
y = 6h + 18
y = (6*7) + 18
y = 42 + 18
y = 60
Answer:
y=3x+3
Step-by-step explanation:
At first there are three marbles for Sam to pick from. the possibility of drawing a colored marble is 2/3. if Sam picks one of the colored marbles, the possibility of therefore (if he'd drawn the colored marble) drawing the second colored marble is 1/2. for the possibility of those happening consequently, we have to multiply the possibilities. 2/3 * 1/2 is 2/6 is 1/3. which means Sam wins in 33.333...% cases. Julie has a better chance of winning.
adding a white marble would change the possibilities to 1/2 and 1/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6 = 16.7% cases, which is even less fair.
adding a colored marble would change the possibilities to 3/4 and 2/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 3/4 * 2/3 = 6/12 = 50% cases, which finally makes the game fair.
