The population of Weston is 4320. The town’s records show that 45 percent of the population are males, and 2 3 23 of these males

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

In Weston 1,296 males are married

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find out the number of males

Multiply the total population by 45%

$45\%=45/100=0.45$

$4,320(0.45)=1,944\ males$

step 2

Find out the number of males that are married

Multiply the number of males by 2/3

$\frac{2}{3}(1,944)=1,296\ males\ married$

therefore

In Weston 1,296 males are married

Write the equation in standard<br> form of the line that has<br> x-intercept 6 and y-intercept -2.

zysi [14]

Answer:

<em>x - 3y = 6</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation of the line in intercept form</u>

The intercept form of the equation of a line is:

$\displaystyle \frac{x}{a}+\frac{y}{b}=1$

Where:

a = x-intercept

b = y-intercept

The standard form of a line is:

Ax + By = C

The given line has a=6 and b=-2, thus:

$\displaystyle \frac{x}{6}+\frac{y}{-2}=1$

Multiplying by 6:

x - 3y = 6

This is the required standard form of the line.

Thus, the standard form of the line is:

x - 3y = 6

Could anyone find this?

lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the squares have areas of 32u^2. The side lengths are

$s=\sqrt{32}\\ \\ \text{By the Pythagorean Theorem}\\ \\ x^2=s^2+s^2\\ \\ x^2=32+32\\ \\ x^2=64\\ \\ x=\sqrt{64}\\ \\ x=8$

A jeweler wants to combine a 60% gold alloy with a 20% gold alloy to make 1000 grams of 50% gold alloy. How many grams of 60% al

kramer

Answer:

750 grams of 60% alloy

Step-by-step explanation:

Define x = amount of 60% alloy and y = amount of 20% alloy

Equating the amounts of gold:

0.6x+0.2y = 1000(0.5)

Since there must be 1000 grams total:

x+y = 1000

Writing the 2 resulting equations together:

0.6x + 0.2y = 500

x + y = 1000

Multiply the first equation by 5:

3x + y = 2500

x + y = 1000

Subtracting the 2nd equation from the 1st:

2x = 1500

x = 750

Answer: 750 grams of 60% alloy
