Answer:

The average mass of one coffee bag is 75kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

The lorry on its own weighs 3500kg.

If it weighs 7250kg alongside coffee bags, we can make the assumption that to find the total mass of the coffee bags, we must take the combined total and subtract the lorry's weight from it.

7250kg subtract 3500kg is 3750kg.

There are 50 coffee bags, so this is the mass of all 50.

If we want to find the mass of one coffee bag, we have to divide the mass of 50 coffee bags by 50.

3750kg divided by 50 is 75kg.

The average mass of one coffee bag is 75kg.

Find the equation of the line of symmetry of y= (x+2)(x-8).

Daniel [21]

Answer:

line of symmetry , x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form of quadratic equation is y = ax^2 + bx + c, where a, b, and c equal all real numbers. You can use the formula x = -b / 2a to find the line of symmetry.

$y = (x+ 2)(x-8)\\\\y = (x^2 -8x + 2x -16)\\\\y = x^2 -6x -16$

a = 1, b = -6, c = -16

Line of symmetry is ,

$x = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{-6}{2} = 3$

Help Me Please I need help

Neko [114]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m = $\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }$

y - $y_{1}$ = m( x - $x_{1}$ )

y = mx + b

~~~~~~~~~~~

(4, 5)

( - 6, 15)

m = (15 - 5) / ( - 6 - 4 ) = - 1

y - 5 = ( - 1)( x - 4 )

y =<em> (- 1) </em>x + <em>9</em>
