Mathematics

olga_2 [115]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

Because line PQ and line PR are both tangent to circle S, it would result in them being equal. So first to find PQ, you would have to find the value of variable x. To do this you would set both equations equal to each other and solve

6x - 9 = 2x + 3

-2x       -2x

4x - 9 = 3

    +9   +9

4x = 12

x = 3

Now you have to substitute 3 back into the equation for PQ:

6(3) - 9

18 - 9

= 9

Resulting in PQ = 9, to check your answer, take the value of x (3) and substitute it into PR and you should also get 9

2(3) + 3

6 + 3

= 9

Question 2 Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence. A recipe for sparkling grape juice calls for 112 quarts of sparkling wat
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

a) 18 quarts of sparkling water

b) 1.875 quarts of grape

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 2 Fill in the blanks to complete the sentence.

A recipe for sparkling grape juice calls for 1 1/2 quarts of sparkling water and 3/4 quart of grape juice.

a. How much sparkling water would you need to mix with 9 quarts of grape juice?

3/4 quarts of grape = 1 1/2 quarts sparkling water

9 quarts of grape = x

x = (9 × 1 1/2) ÷ 3/4

x = (9 × 3/2) × 4/3

x = 27/2 × 4/3

x = 18 quarts of sparking water

b. How much grape juice would you need to mix with 15/4 quarts of sparkling water?

1 1/2 quarts of sparkling water = 3/4 quarts of grape

1 5/4 quarts of sparkling water = x

x = (3/4 × 15/4 ) ÷ 1 1/2

x = (0.75 × 3.75 ) ÷ 1.5

x = 1.875 quarts of grape

c. How much of each ingredient would you need to make 100 quarts of punch?

Round your answer to the nearest whole quart. sparkling water: quarts grape juice: quarts

-7 is x, so plug that in for x
Y=-2/3(-7) + b
and plug in y, -4
-4=-2/3(-7) +b
plug into calculator and then solve algebraically!
b doesn’t mean anything, it’s just what i used for the y axis, really you could use any letter
