A tire company wants to know how quickly the tread on its tires wears down with average use. Have x represent the number of months the tire was used and have y represent the thickness of the tire tread, in millimeters. The equation for the line of best fit is:y = -3/7x +20

1. What is the slope of the line? *
3/7
-3/7
20
-20

What does the slope represent for the tire company? *
The decrease of time (in months) the tires were used.
The increase of time (in months) the tires were used.
The tire tread decreases by this much each month.
The tire tread increases by this much each month.

2. What is the y-intercept of the line? *
3/7
-3/7
20
-20

What does the y-intercept represent for the tire company? *
How thick the tires were when they started.
The number of months they measured the tire tread.
The increase in tire tread.
The decrease in tire tread.

Answer 1
Answer: 1) m=-3/7 in y=-3/7x+20

2) not sure

3)b=20 in y=-3/7x+20
Answer 2
Answer: 1) y=mx+b
m=slope
m=-3/7 in y=-3/7x+20

2) Since the slope is negative it is decreasing, as seen on a graph. So, the tire tread would be decreasing by the month (x).

3) y=mx+b
b=y-intercept
b=20 in y=-3/7x+20

24% of what number is 12

Answers

24 percent of 50 is equal to 12.

We have,

To find the number when 24% of it is equal to 12, we can set up the following equation:

0.24 * x = 12

Here, x represents the unknownnumber.

To solve for x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.24:

x = 12 / 0.24

Simplifying the division gives us:

x = 50

Therefore,

24 percent of 50 is equal to 12.

A company makes concrete bricks shaped like rectangular prisms. Each brick is 10 inches long, 7 inches wide, and 5 inches tall. If they used 14,000in3 of concrete, how many bricks did they make?

Answers

Answer: There are 40 bricks they make.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of each brick = 10 inches

Width of each brick = 7 inches

Height of each brick = 5 inches

So, Volume of each brick = Length × Breadth × Height

Volume=10* 7* 5\n\nVolume=350\ in^3

Since, If they used 14000 in³ of concrete.

So, Number of bricks is given by

\frac{\text{Volume of concrete}}{\text{Volume of brick}}\n\n\n=(14000)/(350)\n\n\n=40

Hence, there are 40 bricks they make.


The volume of each block is

                           (10in x 7 in x 5 in) = 350 inches³ .

With  14,000 in³  of material, they could make

                       (14,000 in³) / (350 in³/block) = 40 blocks .
