Answer:

64/35

Step-by-step explanation:

To divide fractions, multiply the first fraction by the second fraction's reciprocal.

The reciprocal of a fraction is just the top and bottom number switched.

So the reciprocal of 5/8 would be 8/5.

Now, you can multiply 8/7 by 8/5.

This gives you 64/35.

And that's it!

Which best describes the relationship between the line that passes through the points (-9, -7) and (-12, -2) and the line

o-na [289]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,-7) and (-12,-2) is

y = -5/3x-22

and

equation of the line that passes through the points (1, 9) and (6, 6) is

y = -3/5x+48/5

clearly it is not the same line,

$\frac{-5}{3}.\frac{-3}{5} \neq -1$ (lines are not perpendicular)

$\frac{-5}{3}\neq \frac{-3}{5}$ (not parallel)

A large mixing tank currently contains 350 gallons of water, into which 10 pounds of sugar have been mixed. A tap will open, pou

Marysya12 [62]

Answer

Let t be number of minutes since tap is opened

water is increased by 20 gallons of water per minute.

sugar increase rate of 3 pounds per minute

water :- W(t) = 350 + 10 t

sugar :- S(t) = 10 + 3 t

concentration

C(t) = $\dfrac{S(t)}{W(t)}$

at t = 15 minutes

C(15) = $\dfrac{S(15)}{W(15)}$

C(15) = $\dfrac{10 + 3\times 15 }{350 + 10\times 15}$

C(15) = 0.11

at beginning t = 0 minutes

C(0) = $\dfrac{S(0)}{W(0)}$

C(0) = $\dfrac{10 + 3\times 0}{350 + 10\times 0}$

C(0) = 0.0286

C(15) > C(0)

hence, concentration is increasing as time is passing.
