Answer:

9.72 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Yield = the amount or quantity produced or returned.

Given:

  • Yield of eggplant = 81%
  • Amount of eggplant purchased = 12 lb

To determine how many pounds of eggplant you will be able to use, calculate 81% of the amount of eggplant purchased.

\begin{aligned}\sf 81\% \: of \: 12 \: lb & = \sf \dfrac{81}{100} \cdot 12\\\\& = \sf  \dfrac{81 \cdot 12}{100}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{972}{100}\\\\& = \sf 9.72\:lb\end{aligned}

Therefore, you will be able to use 9.72 lb (nearest hundredth).

Escribe una ecuación de la recta que pasa por el punto (5, –8) con pendiente 5.
Nana76 [90]

Considerando la expresión de una ecuación lineal, la ecuación de la recta que pasa por el punto (5, –8) con pendiente 5 es y= 5x - 33.

<h3>Ecuación lineal</h3>

Una ecuación lineal o línea se puede expresar en la forma y = mx + b

donde

  • x y son coordenadas de un punto.
  • m es la pendiente.
  • b es la ordenada al origen y representa la coordenada del punto donde la línea cruza el eje y.

La ecuación lineal se puede expresar también mediante la ecuación punto-pendiente de la recta, que se plantea si se conoce la pendiente de la recta y cualquiera de sus puntos. Con ello queda determinada la recta, conociendo la pendiente  “m” y un punto  (x1, y1) dado:

y - y1= m(x -x1)

<h3>Ecuación de la recta en este caso</h3>

En este caso, la recta que pasa por el punto (5, –8) con pendiente 5.

Reemplazando en la ecuación punto-pendiente de la recta:

y - (-8)= 5(x -5)

Resolviendo:

y + 8= 5(x -5)

Aplicando propiedad distributiva:

y + 8= 5x - 5×5

y + 8= 5x - 25

Aislando la variable "y":

y= 5x - 25 - 8

<u><em>y= 5x - 33</em></u>

Finalmente, la ecuación de la recta que pasa por el punto (5, –8) con pendiente 5 es y= 5x - 33.
