The value of 300 is divided into 120 and 180 in the ratio of 2:3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total value is 300.
This total of 300 should be divide in the ratio of 2:3.

Let us assume that the common factor be x in the ratio.

The value of the part A is 2x.
The value of the part B is 3x.

It is known that, 2x + 3x = 300

⇒ 5x = 300

⇒ x = 300/5

⇒ x =60.

To find the values of A and B :

A= 2x

⇒ 2(60)

⇒ 120

B= 3x

⇒ 3(60)

⇒ 180

The value of 300 is divided into 120 and 180 in the ratio of 2:3.

Say you have the fraction 1/2 to the power of 2, so 1/2^2. You could also write this down as: 1/2*(times)1/2 or 0,5*0,5. Whenever you multiply by a number smaller than one, the outcome will get smaller. Whenever you multiply by a number larger than one, the outcome will be larger.

Write an equation in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to 3x + 2y equals 12 and passes through the point (1,2)

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The equation is y = (2/3)x + (4/3).

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to change the equation into slope-intecept formula to find its gradient (slope) :

$3x + 2y = 12$

$2y = - 3x + 12$

$y = - \frac{3}{2}x + 6$

Given that when a line is perpendicular to the other line, their slope value multiplied, will form -1. Next, we have to find the slope for line :

$m1 \times m2 = - 1$

$- \frac{3}{2} \times m2 = - 1$

$m2 = - 1 \div - \frac{3}{2}$

$m2 = \frac{2}{3}$

Lastly, we have to subatitute the x and y values into the equation, to find its intercept value :

$y = \frac{2}{3}x + b$

$let \: x = 1,y = 2$

$2 = \frac{2}{3} (1) + b$

$b = 2 - \frac{2}{3}$

$b = \frac{4}{3}$

$y = \frac{2}{3} x + \frac{4}{3}$
