Nestor works at a garden center where he posts plants. It takes him 2 1/2 hours to pot 15 plants. How many plants can Nestor pot in 1 hour? * how many plants can he pot in 1 hour?

Nestor can pot 6 plants in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

first lets convert 2 1/2 hours in mixed fraction form for better calculation

2 1/2 hours = (2*2 + 1)/2 = 5/2 hours

no of plants pot in  5/2 hours = 15

to find no. of plants pot in 1 hours lets

divide both side by 5/2

no of plants pot in  5/2/(5/2)  hours = 15/(5/2) = 15*2/5 = 6

no. of plants pot in 1 hour = 6

Thus, Nestor can pot 6 plants in 1 hour.

1)Parallel means they have to have the same slope. Since our equation is y=2/3x+1, a line parallel to that would be(using out points) -5=2/3(-4)+b.

To find the y-intercept, solve for "b".

b=-7/3

Our equation would then be y=2/3x-7/3

2)Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes. our previous equation was y=2/3x+1, so our new equation would be -5=-3/2(-4)+b. Now lets solve for b.

b=-11

So our perpendicular equation would be y=-3/2x-11
