if you look at delta y over x, you'll notice it always equals 2

i.e (22-2)/10-0 = 20/10 = 2

or (14-2)/6-0 = 12/6 = 2

or even (22-8)/10-3 = 14/7 = 2

This means that m (slope) is 2.

Now as for b. b is the y intercept and that value occurs when x = 0. On the table, when x = 0 y = 2 so b = 2.

y = mx + b becomes

y = 2x + 2

A metallurgist has an alloy with 5% titanium and an alloy with 30% titanium. He needs 100 grams of an alloy with 15% titanium. H

andrey2020 [161]

Let us convert the percentages to decimal format first.. so 5% is just 5/100 or 0.05 and 15% is just 15/100 or 0.15

so hmmm, so, let's say it needs "x" amount and "y" amount of each respectively, so, whatever "x" and "y" are, they must add up to 100, and whatever their concentration is, must add up to what the mixture yields

thus

$\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&amount&concentration&
\begin{array}{llll}
concentrated\\
amount
\end{array}\\
&-----&-------&-------\\
\textit{5\% alloy}&x&0.05&0.05x\\
\textit{30\% alloy}&y&0.30&0.3y\\
-----&-----&-------&-------\\
mixture&100&0.15&15
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\begin{cases}
x+y=100\implies \boxed{y}=100-x\\
0.05x+0.3y=15\\
----------\\
0.5x+0.3\left( \boxed{100-x} \right)=15
\end{cases}$

solve for "x"

what's "y"? well, y = 100 - x

What is 36.993 to the nearest thousandth

finlep [7]

The next larger thousandth is 36.994 .
The next smaller thousandth is 36.992 .
Neither of those is any nearer to 36.993
than 36.993 already is.

The last '3' at the end of 36.993 is in the thousandths' place.
There is no more piece of another thousandth after it.
So 36.993 is already on a complete thousandth, and
there's no rounding required.
