sorry if this is incorrect your question was a little confusing                                                                           

Answer 2

The Equations are 2x = 108 and 3y = 108.

Drain A takes 54 minutes and Drain B takes 36 minutes to empties the pool.

What is Unit rate?

When comparing two different kinds of numbers with distinct units, a rate is a ratio that is employed. The unit rate, on the other hand, shows how many units of one quantity are equal to one unit of another.

Given:

Drain A empties a pool at a rate of 2 gal/min.

Drain B empties a pool at a rate of 5 gal/min.

One pool has 108 gal of water in it.

So, let Drain A empties the pool in x minutes and Drain B in y minutes.

Then, Drain A:

2x = 108

x= 54 minutes

and, Drain B:

3y = 108

y= 36 minutes

A pair of in-line skates is on sale for $90 iF this price represents 9% discount form the original price,what is the original price to the nearest cent

Answers

Let x = original price in dollars

x is the original price
9% of this original price is equal to 0.09x

subtract: x - 0.09x = 0.91x

The discount price is equal to 0.91x and it's equal to 90 dollars, so they must be the same value. Ie.

0.91x = 90
0.91x/0.91 = 90/0.91
x = 98.9010989
x = 98.90

So the original price is $98.90

The required original cost of the in-line skates is given as $100.00.

Given that,
A pair of in-line skates are on sale for $90, this price represents a 9% discount from the original price, and the original price to the nearest cent is to be determined.

A bank charges you $3 each time you use an out of network Atm. At the beginning of the month you have $1500 in your bank account. You withdraw $60 from your bank account each time you use an out of network ATM. Write and graph a linear equation that represents the balance in your account after you use an out of network Atm x times.

Answers

For this you would use the normal y=mx+b formula. You have a total of 1500 dollars in your account so that would be your constant or your b. Your m or your slope is rise over run. To find this you would add what is taken out each time, so you would add 60 and 3 and that would be your rise y to get 63. Your run would be the number of times or x and that is one inbetween each time. Put those together to get 63/1 and make it negative because it is subtracting that amount each time making m be -63/1. that makes your equation y=-63/1x+1500.

Answers

If Bryan wants to make $2000 dollars then he needs to solve this equation:

2000=500+150x
-500   -500

1500=150x   divide by 150 on both sides

x=10

10 cars
  

Answer:

He need to sell atleast 10 car to make atleast $2000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Bryan sells cars. He makes a salary of $500 a week, plus $150 for every car he sells. This week, he wants to make at least $2000.

To find :  How many cars does he need to sell, Write an equation and solve.

Solution : He makes a salary = $500 per week .

     He gets for every car sell =  $ 150.

Let us consider the number of cars he need to sell = x.

Total cost for x car = $150 * x.

According to question  he wants to make atleast = $2000.

We will use" greater than or equal to "sign for atleast then equation become:

150x + 500 [tex]\geq[/tex] 2000.

Now, we need to solve the inequality for x :

On subtracting by 500 both sides

150x  [tex]\geq[/tex] 2000 -500.

150x  [tex]\geq[/tex] 1500.

On dividing by 150 both sides ,

x  [tex]\geq[/tex] 10.

Therefore, he need to sell atleast 10 car to make atleast $2000.

Mary can paint a house 12 hours. if Nancy helps, it takes them 2 hours. without help, how long would it take Nancy to complete the same job?

Answers

i would say it takes Nancy 10 hours

Final answer:

To find out how long it will take Nancy to paint the house alone, we calculate her work rate by subtracting Mary's rate from their combined rate. This gives us Nancy's work rate as 5/12 of a house per hour, which means Nancy would take 2.4 hours to paint the house by herself.

Explanation:

To determine how long it would take Nancy to paint the house by herself, we can set up an equation based on the rates of work done by Mary and Nancy together, and by Mary alone. We know that Mary can paint a house in 12 hours, so her work rate is 1/12 of a house per hour. When Nancy helps, together they can paint the house in 2 hours, so their combined work rate is 1/2 of a house per hour.

To find Nancy's work rate, we set up the equation:
1/12 + 1/N = 1/2

Now, we solve for N (Nancy's time to paint the house alone):
1/N = 1/2 - 1/12
1/N = 6/12 - 1/12
1/N = 5/12
N = 12/5
N = 2.4 hours

Therefore, it would take Nancy 2.4 hours to complete the same job by herself.

Sales Tax would be considered a) percent increase, because it is an added amount onto the total. Discount would be considered b) percent decrease, because it takes a certain amount off of your total. Tip would be considered a) percent increase, because similar to sales tax, you must add it on to your total.
The Sales Tax is percent: Increase because it is going upward and you're adding on 

Discount is percent:  Decrease because it is downward and because you're taking a certain amount off

Which rational numbers is not equivalent to the others. 75%,3/4,0.75,7/50

Answers

7/50 is not equal to any of the other answers 
Final answer:

The rational number 7/50 is not equivalent to the other numbers listed (75%, 3/4, 0.75) as it converts to a decimal value of 0.14, which is distinct from 0.75.

Explanation:

The question asks which rational number is not equivalent to the others: 75%, 3/4, 0.75, or 7/50. To determine this, we can convert all the numbers to a common format, such as decimals or fractions, and compare their values.

First, 75% is equivalent to 0.75, as percent means "per hundred," so 75% is 75 per 100, which can be written as 75/100 and simplified to 3/4 or 0.75. Next, 3/4 is exactly 0.75 when converted to a decimal. This means that these three are equivalent to each other.

However, 7/50 is a different case. When we convert 7/50 to a decimal, we get 0.14, which is evidently different from 0.75. Therefore, 7/50 is not equivalent to the other rational numbers listed.

What is the regular price?

Answers

the regular price of the sofa is $684.61.

What is percentage?

A value or ratio that may be stated as a fraction of 100 is referred to as a percentage in mathematics. If we need to compute a percentage of a number, we should divide it by its whole and then multiply it by 100. The proportion, therefore, refers to a component per hundred. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The letter "%" stands for it.

Given, A sofa is on sale for $442, which is 35% less than the regular price.

Thus,

65% of the regular price  = 442

The regular price = 445*100/65

Thus, Regular price =  $684.61

Therefore, the regular price of the sofa is $684.61.

Which of the answers listed above is the CORRECT answer?

Answers

Answer:

Greater than

Step-by-step explanation:

The function y=2x+5 is written in slope-intercept form, y=mx+b, where m is the slope (rate of change) and b is the y-intercept.  The slope in this function is 2.

The slope of the function in the table is given by the formula for slope:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Using the first two points, we have

m = (3-0)/(2--1) = 3/3 = 1

The rate of change is 1.  This is less than the first function, which means the rate of change of the function y=2x+5 is greater than the slope in the table.

The rate of change of  y=2x+5 is 2 which is greater than the rate of change in the table which is 1.

What is the rate of change?

The rate of change is the change of a quantity over 1 unit of another quantity.

Most of the time the rate of change is the change with respect to time.

As per the given function,

y = 2x + 5

The slope-intercept form is given as, y = mx + c here m is the slope.

By comparing, slope = 2

As per the given table,

Slope = (difference in y's coordinate)/(difference in x's coordinate)

Slope = (3 - 0)/(2 - (-1)) = 3/3 = 1

Thus, slope of function is greater then the table.

Hence "Y=2x+5's rate of change is 2, which is higher than the table's rate of change of 1".

a square rug has an area 80ft which is the best approximation of the length of one side of the rug.....Explain...If you can show work

A ) 6.4ft
B ) 7.5ft
C ) 8.9ft
D ) 20ft

Answers

So to find the answer, first we need to understand how to approximate square roots. 80 is an imperfect square, so we're going to have to round the answer. To find that, we need to find the multiples 80.

72, 80, 81.
8, x, 9

So the distance apart between 72 and 81 is 9. The answer, x, is obviously between 8 and 9, and since the distance between these to is 9, your answer is going to be 8.9 .
Final answer:

The length of one side of the square rug is found by taking the square root of the area of the rug, which is 80 square feet. The best approximation for this is 8.9 feet.

Explanation:

This problem is about understanding the relationship between the area and the length of a side in a square. In a square, all sides are equal in length, and the area of a square is given by the equation Area = side*side. So, if the area is given, we can find the length of a side by taking the square root of the area.

Here, since the area of the square rug is 80 square ft., we find the length of one side by calculating the square root of 80. The square root of 80 is approximately 8.9ft

So, looking at the options given, the best approximation for the length of one side of the rug is option C) 8.9ft.
