The situation will be represented by linear equation, this is given by:
y=ax+b
where:
a=slope=rate
b=y-intercept
from our situation:

a=-1/20
b=5 ft
thus the equation modeling the situation will be:
y=-1/20x+5

Answer: y=-1/20x+5

the scale on a map is stated as 1:250000 two villages are 9 cm apart on the map how far from each other are the two villages in
Karolina [17]

Answer:

22.5 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The scale drawing is

1:250,000

That means

1 unit on a map represent 250,000 units in the actual

or

1 cm on a map represent 250,000 cm in the actual

or

1 cm on a map represent 2,500 m in the actual

or

1 cm on a map represent 2,5 km in the actual

therefore

using proportion

Find out how much represent 9 cm apart on the map

\frac{1}{2.5}\ \frac{cm}{km}=\frac{9}{x}\ \frac{cm}{km}\\\\x=9(2.5)\\\\x=22.5\ km

Subtracting 10x from the given equation gives
  120 = 15x
Then dividing by 15 gives
  8 = x

Zorah will have to play 8 hours in order to break even (cover her expenses exactly).

On sunday 1/16 people who visit were senior citizens, 3/16 were infants, 3/8 were children and 3/8 were adults, how many of each
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

Out of total people visited the zoo on Sunday , 6.25% was senior citizen ,  18.75% were infants , 35% were children and 35% were adult.

Step-by-step explanation:

let total number of people visited the group  = x

so number of senior citizens = x × 1/16 = x/16

Percentage of  senior citizens = (number of senior citizens ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100

= (x/16 ÷ x)  × 100 = 100/16 = 6.25%

number of infants = 3/16 × x = 3x/16

Percentage of  infants =(number of infants  ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/16 ÷ x)  × 100 = 300/16 = 18.75%

number of  children = 3/8 × x = 3x/8

Percentage of  children =(number of children ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/8 ÷ x)  × 100 = 300/8 = 37.5%

number of  adults = 3/8 × x = 3x/8

Percentage of  adults =(number of adults ÷ total number of people visited the group) × 100 = (3x/8 ÷ x)  × 100 = 300/8 = 37.5%.

Hence we can conclude that Out of total people visited the zoo on Sunday , 6.25% was senior citizen ,  18.75% were infants , 35% were children and 35% were adult.
