Answer:
90 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/2 is half of 3 so just multiply 45 by two
Answer: B) Infinitely many solutions; both equations are equivalent
==============================================================
Work Shown:
x+y = 4 ... start with the first equation
x + (-x+4) = 4 ... replace y with (-x+4)
x-x+4 = 4
0x+4 = 4
0+4 = 4
4 = 4 ... this is a true statement regardless of what x you pick
So there are infinitely many solutions. Each solution (x,y) is of the form (x,-x+4). All solutions fall on the line y = -x+4 which is equivalent to x+y = 4. Note how we add x to both sides.
Or you could start with x+y = 4 and subtract x from both sides to get y = -x+4. Either way, we're dealing with the same equation which is why they both graph out the same line.
Answer:
y = -5x - 23
Step-by-step explanation:
Point-slope form:
y - 7 = -5(x + 6)
rearrange:
y - 7 = -5x - 30
y = -5x - 23

The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
The Royal Fruit Company produces two types of fruit drinks. The first type is 65% pure fruit juice, and the second type is 90% pure fruit juice. The company is attempting to produce a fruit drink that contains 85% pure fruit juice. How many pints of each of the two existing types of drink must be used to make 80 pints of a mixture that is 85% pure fruit juice?
Answer: Let x be the number of pints of the first fruit juice (i.e 65%) and y be the number of pints of the second fruit juice (i.e 90%).
Since the total number of pints to make the 85% pure fruit juice is 80, it can be represented using the equation:
x + y = 80 . . . 1)
Also, x pints of the first juice = 0.65x, y pints of the second juice = 0.9y and 80 pints of the mixture to be produced = 80(0.85) = 68. Therefore:
0.65x + 0.9y = 68 . . . 2)
We have to solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously, first multiply equation 1 by 0.65 to get equation 3:
0.65x + 0.65y = 52 . . . 3)
Subtract equation 3 from 2 and solve for y:
0.25y = 16
y = 16/0.25 = 64
y = 64 pints
Put y = 64 in equation 1:
x + 64 = 80
x = 80 - 64 = 16
x = 16 pints
Therefore 16 pints of the 65% pure fruit juice, and 64 pints of the 90% pure fruit juice is required to make 80 pints of 80% fruit juice.
HAVE NO IDEA! this takes alot of thinking to figure it out
