A store has 2000 grocery bags to give away as part of its grand opening. The store is handing out 150 bags per hour. In how many hours will the store have 950 bags remaining? Write an equation that represents this scenario. Then solve.

13.3 repeated

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to take 2000 and divide it by 15. Then your answer will come.

*13.3*

7 hrs

Step-by-step explanation:

2000 grocery bags

Let x be the number of hours

If they're handing out 150 bags per hour, then 150x would be the amount given out in x hrs.

Since we want to get 950 bags left over a certain number of hrs, make this equation and solve:

950=2000-150x

150x=1050

x=7

c. (3,2,6) is the answer.

55.44 inches

step-by-step explanation:

part a. assuming a perfectly linear relationship, we can find the slope from the first two data points.

slope = m = (change in rainfall)/(change in years)

= (61.80 -62.33)/(2005 -2004) = -0.53/1 = -0.53

then the point-slope form of the equation of the line can be written as

y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . m = -0.53, (h, k) = (0, 62.33)

y = -0.53x +62.33 . . . x = years after 2004

part b. in 2017, x = 2017 -2004 = 13. then the predicted rainfall is

y = -0.53·13 +62.33 = 55.44 . . inches

the predicted rainfall in 2017 is 55.44 in.
