Answer:
The correct option is A.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that Colton has 8 comedy movies, 6 action movies, 5 fantasy movies, and 1 drama movie on his list of favorite movies.
Total number of favorite movies is
Therefore Colton has 20 movies in the list of favorite movies.
For every 5 movies on the list, there are 2 movies of required category.
For every 20 movies on the list, there are 8 movies of required category.
Out of 20 movies we have 8 comedy movies, therefore the required category is comedy movie.
The ratio of comedy movie and total movies is
Therefore we can say that for every 5 movies on the list, there are 2 comedy movies. Option A is correct.
Answer:
x= 8.4
Step-by-step explanation:
y=0.8
4x + 8y =40
4x + ( 8 x 0.8) = 40
4x + (6.4) =40
4x = 40 - 6.4
4x = 33.6
x = 8.4
Answer:
Laura is 30 years old and Maria is 18 years old.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the present age of Laura and y be that of Maria.
Laura was 3 times older than Maria when Laura had Maria's present age.
Lets say Laura had Maria's present age(y) k years before.Then Maria's age at that time will be y-k where k=(x-y).
Then:
y=3(y-k)
y=3(y-(x-y))
y=3(2y-x)
3x=5y -------1
After two years Laura will become x+2 years old and 2 years ago Maria was y-2 years old. Then:
x+2=2(y-2)
x=2y-6--------2
Solving 1 and 2 we get:
x=30 and y=18
Hence Laura's present age is 30 and Maria's present age is 18.
The slope of this line can be described as D. zero slope because there is no upward movement, so there is no slope, so it is zero.
Answer: D. zero slope
