Answer:

He can make 3 batches of soup.

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with 10 pounds of tomatoes and taking out the number of pounds he sets aside for spaghetti sauce, 2.8, we have:

10-2.8 = 7.2 pounds left.

0.2 is read as "two tenths," so 7.2 = 7 2/10

We divide this remaining number of pounds by 2 2/5 for each batch of soup:

7 2/10 ÷ 2 2/5

Convert each to an improper fraction:

72/10 ÷ 12/5

Multiply by the reciprocal:

72/10 × 5/12 = 360/120 = 3

What is the equation of the line, in standard form, that passes through (4, -3) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 4

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The equation is: 4x + y + a = 0

Point (4, -3) ⇒ x = 4 and y = - 3

⇒ 4 · 4 - 3 + a = 0

16 - 3 +a = 0

13 + a = 0

a = -13

Ansver: equation is: 4x + y - 13 = 0 OR 4x + y = 13

What are the coordinates of the point on the directed line segment from (5,5) to

iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

$(x,y) = (6,2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(x_1,y_1) = (5,5)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (8,-4)$

$m:n = 1:2$

Required

Determine the coordinate of the partition

This is calculated using:

$(x,y) = (\frac{mx_2 + nx_1}{m + n},\frac{my_2 + ny_1}{m + n})$

Substitute values for m,n,x's and y's

$(x,y) = (\frac{1 * 8 + 2 * 5}{1+2},\frac{1*-4 + 2*5}{1 + 2})$

$(x,y) = (\frac{18}{3},\frac{6}{3})$

$(x,y) = (6,2)$
