Four inches every four and a half pounds
The average rate of change of the length of the spring as the load varies from 5 pounds to 9 pounds is 0.5 inches per pound.
What is average?It is a measure of how much the function changes per unit, on average, over the given interval.
We have,
5 pounds loaded on a spring:
The length of the spring is 6 inches.
9 pounds loaded on a spring:
The length of the spring is 8 inches.
The average rate of change in the length of the spring as the load varies:
= (8 - 6) / (9 - 5)
= 2 / 4
= 1 / 2
= 0.5 inches per pound
Thus the average rate of change of the length of the spring as the load varies from 5 pounds to 9 pounds is 0.5 inches per pound.

write the equation for the line that is parallel to y=2/3x-5 and goes through the point (-12/2)
Answer:
I put the equation into Point-Slope Form and got:
y - 2 = 2/3(x + (-12))
Distribute the 3 to the numbers on the left:
3y - 6 = 2(x - 12)
Multiply the Parenthesis by 2:
3y - 6 = 2x - 24
Add 6 to the right side:
3y = 2x - 18
Divide both sides by 3:
y = 2/3x - 6 is the answer :)

Answer:
5/6−1/9=13/18
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions have unlike denominators. First, find the Least Common Denominator and rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the number that makes its denominator equal the LCD. This is basically multiplying each fraction by 1.
(5/6×3/3)−(1/9×2/2)=?
Complete the multiplication and the equation becomes
15/18−2/18=?
The two fractions now have like denominators so you can subtract the numerators.
Then:
15−2/18=13/18
This fraction cannot be reduced.
Therefore:
5/6−1/9=13/18

Answer:
The answer is D
Step-by-step explanation:
Which multiplication problem does the model represent?
A- 1/8 times 2
B- 7/8 times 2
C- 1/2 times 4
D- 1/4 times 8
The correct answer would be D- 1/4 times 8
This is the correct answer because if you look at the model, it shows 2 blocks of 1, and then 8 blocks of 1/4, which both equal 2, and the model does not say anything about the top row, only the bottom, and after process of elimination, you would be left with 1/4 times 8
Which transformation from the graph of a function f(x) describes the graph of 5f(x)
Answer:
Dilation
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Main function: f(x)
Resulting function: 5f(x)
Required
Which transformation exists between both functions
The general explanation is that:
When a function f(x) is multiplied by a constant k, the resulting function g(x) is a dilation of f(x).
Mathematically, if the following relationship exists between f(x) and g(x)
g(x) = k.f(x)
Then g(x) is a dilation of f(x) and k is the constant of proportionality or dilation ratio
In this case:
g(x) = 5f(x)
So, the transformation that answers the question is dilation.

Because here there are 5 zeroes so 0.00003 can be written as 3/100000 , here 100000 = 10⁵ . Now , 3/10⁵ → 3 × 1/10⁵ → 3 × 10-⁵
Hence , 0.00003 = 3 × 10-⁵ . So it is -5
Sharon runs a screen-printing business. To print T-shirts each day, it costs her $200 in labor plus $5 per T-shirt for materials. Her income is $15 for each T-shirt she sells. How many T-shirts does Sharon need to sell each day in order for her costs to equal her income for that day?
(i mainly need the equation for this problem)
Answer:
Equation: 15n = 200 + 5n
Number of T-shirts: 20
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find an expression for the costs for 1 day for making n number of T-shirts and an expression for the income for 1 day for selling n number of T-shirts. Then we set the expressions equal and solve for n, the number of T-shirts.
Expenses in 1 day:
The expenses are a fixed cost of $200 plus the cost per T-shirt.
$200 plus $5 per T-shirt
We need an expression for the cost per T-shirt in terms of n, the number of T-shirts.
If she makes 1 T-shirt, she spends $5 * 1.
If she makes 2 T-shirts, she spends $5 * 2.
If she makes n T-shirts, she spends $5 * n, or simply 5n.
Her total costs for a day are:
200 + 5n
Income in 1 day:
All the income comes from selling T-shirts.
She sells 1 T-shirt for $15 * 1.
She sells 2 T-shirts for $15 * 2.
She sells n T-shirts for $15 * n, or simply 15n
Her total income for 1 day is:
15n
Now we set the costs equal to the income and solve for n.
15n = 200 + 5n <--------- here is the equation you need
Subtract 5n from both sides.
10n = 200
Divide both sides by 10.
n = 20
Answer: She needs to sell 20 T-shirts.
How do you work this problem? 10x2 +25x
Answer:
x=-5/2,0
Step-by-step explanation:
It is solved by first factorizing it
10x²+25x=5x(2x+5)=0
Finding the zeros
5x=0x=0/5=0
2x+5=0
x=-5/2
Therefore x is -5/2 or 0

Need help geometric sequences see pic for details
Given:
The recursive formula of a geometric sequence is
[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex]
[tex]a_1=-3[/tex]
To find:
The explicit formula of the given geometric sequence.
Solution:
We know that, first term of geometric sequence is [tex]a_1=-3[/tex].
Recursive formula of a geometric sequence is
[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\times r[/tex] ...(i)
where, r is common ratio.
We have,
[tex]a_n=a_{n-1}\cdot (\dfrac{1}{8})[/tex] ...(ii)
On comparing (i) and (ii), we get
[tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex]
The explicit formula of a geometric sequence is
[tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]
Putting [tex]a_1=-3[/tex] and [tex]r=\dfrac{1}{8}[/tex], we get
[tex]a_n=-3\left(\dfrac{1}{8}\right)^{n-1}[/tex]
Therefore, the correct option is D.
James borrows $4,200 to pay his college tuition. He signs a 5-year simple interest loan. If the monthly payments are $78.40, what is the interest rate on the loan?
Answer:
2.4%
Step-by-step explanation:
Total amount of payments:
5 years * 12 months/year * $78.40/month =
= $4704.00
Amount of interest paid in 5 years:
$4704 - $4200 = $504
Amount of interest paid in 1 year:
$504/5 = $100.80
Annual percent rate of interest:
$100.80/$4200 * 100% = 2.4%
Answer: 2.4%

Points (−7, 5) and (7, 5) on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two players of a football team:
A coordinate plane is shown. There is a point at 7, 5 labeled Player 2. There is a point at negative 7, 5 labeled Player 1.
Which statement best describes the relationship between the positions of the two players? (4 points)
Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.
Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.
Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.
Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.
Given:
Player 1 is at (-7,5).
Player 2 is at (7,5).
To find:
The relationship between the positions of the two players.
Solution:
The two points are (-7,5) and (7,5).
Here, x-coordinates are different but y-coordinates are same. The absolute values of x-coordinates are equal but the signs are different.
The transformation is defined as
[tex](x,y)\to (-x,y)[/tex]
It means, the points are mirror image of each other with respect to y-axis.
Player 1's position is Player 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Player 1 and Player 2 are different.
Therefore, the correct option is C.
the basement of a building is 40 feet below ground level . the elevator rises of 5 feet per second . you enter the elevator in the basement write an equation that represents the height y (in feet) of the elevator
Answer:
y=5x-40
Step-by-step explanation:
It says 5 feet per second, so you know that is the rate/speed. The rate is always going to be x. The building starts in the basement which is -40 because the basement is under ground level, so it would be less then 0 (ground level) and y is the final height you are at.

What is the decimal multiplier to decrease by 2.7%?
Multiplying by 1 keeps it the same. A number greater than 1 would be an increase and a number below 1 would be a decrease.
The decrease is 2.7% which is written as 0.027 as a decimal.
Subtract that from 1:
1 - 0.027 = 0.973
The multiplier would be 0.973
