Answer: 0.7
Step-by-step explanation: use calculator XD
Answer:
open the bracket
(4X+)-3X-2-72+X=X
4X+(-3X)-74+X=X
X-74+X=X
2X-74=X
then collect the term
-74=X-2X
-74=-X
divide by negative every side then you get
X=74
A ratio of 5:7 means out of 12 books, 5 are in one category and 7 are in another. (The “category” isn’t specified in this problem.)
So here we’re STARTING with 36 books; we want to find a ratio that is equal to 5:7 and adds up to 36. Well 36 = 3(12), and so if we multiply each number in the ratio by 3 as well, we might get what we want. Doing that gives us 15:21, which adds up to 36 and is equal to 5:7. Boom, that’s the answer.
P.S. Here’s a question you can think about: why do ratios stay the same when you multiply each number by the same amount? (For example, why is 3:1 the same as 6:2?)
The rule to remember about generating the perpendicular family to a line is we swap the coefficients on and x and y, remembering to negate one of them. Then the constant is set directly from the intersecting point.
So we have
y = 3x + 2
-3x + 1y = 2
Swapping and negating gets the perpendiculars; the constant is as yet undetermined.
1x + 3y = constant
Since we want to go through (0,2), we could have just written
x + 3y = 0 + 3(2) = 6
3y = -x + 6
y = (-1/3) x + 2
Third choice
