James needs 50 tons of dirt for a large construction project. He already has 3 tons of dirt at the construction site. Each dump truck can transport 8 tons of dirt. How many trips does the dump truck need to take to reach 50 tons of dirt?A.
5
B.
6
C.
7
D.
8

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: If he already has 3 tons of dirt at the site, He needs 50-3=47 tons to be carried by the truck
Minimum number of trips the truck will need to take=47/8
                                                                          =5.875
But since the truck cannot actually take 5.875 trips, it will take the next whole number of trips so it will take 6 trips.(B)

CANT GET WRONGThe equation y = 4x + 4 describes the relationship between the quantities x and y. Are the quantities in a proportional relationship?
A) Yes, because the graph of the equation is a straight line.
B) No, because the graph of the equation is not a straight line.
C) Yes, because the graph of the equation passes through the origin.
D) No, because the graph of the equation does not pass through the origin.

Answers

Answer:

Option D is correct that is No, because the graph of the equation does not pass through origin.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the equation:

y = 4x+4

The direct proportion means if equation follow:  y=mx where m is the proportion or can say equation passes through origin.

Here, equation is y=mx+c not y=mx

In y=mx

We can see if x increases y will increase

And if x decreases y will decrease.

Therefore, Option D is correct that is  No, because the equation does not pass through origin.

The correct answer would be D. because if the equation has a y-intercept (+4) than the line doesn't go through the origin.

Yesterday, 58 of the 72 students in a contest gave their speeches. How many students gave their speeches? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answers

so 58 out of 72
therefor
58/72
divide both by 2
58/2=29
72/2=36

29/36
29 is prime so that is simplest form
29/36 is answer
Lets express this as a fraction in simplest form. 

58/72

divide 

58/2 = 29
72/2 = 36

29/36 (cannot be simplified further)

Answer: 29/36

Answer:

1. 1/2, 2. 2, 3. 1/-3, 4. -2

Step-by-step explanation:

1) I know that the equation for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1. For number one I first found two points of the graph which is (0,3) and (2,4) (not sure if I see it correctly, its kind of blurry). I decided that (0,3) would be my y1 and x1 and (2,4) will be my y2 and x2. I later plugged the number in the equation and got 4-3/2-0 which the answer turns out to be 1/2.

2) For the rest of the questions it is kinda the same business as question 1. For question two I chose two points out of the table which wrer (-1, -12) and (1,-8) and plugged them into the equation and got -8-(-12)/1-(-1) which the answer turns out to be 2.

3) similar to question 2. The two points(2,-6) and (-4,-3) are given to you. so I plugged them in again and got -3-(-6)/-4-2 which the answer turns out to be 3/-6 into 1/-3.

4) Same with question 1 find two points of the graph. I chose (0,3) and (1,1) (again might not be accurate it's kind of blurry) I plugged them into the equation again and got 1-3/1-0 which equals -2.

Just always remember y2-y1/x2-x1=m is the equation for slope.

(m is the variable for slope)
