Let the weight of triangle be x units. You are given that the weight of square is 1 unit.

1) On the left side of the balanced beam you can see 3 triangles and 5 squares. The weight on left side is 3·x+5·1=3x+5 units.

2) On the right side of the balanced beam you can see 2 triangles and 7 squares. The weight on right side is 2·x+7·1=2x+7 units.

3) If the whole system is balanced, then the weights on left and right sides are equal:

3x+5=2x+7.

Solve this equation:

3x-2x=7-5,

x=2 units.

In 3-4 sentences, describe how you would find a line parallel to the line 2x + 5y = 15 that goes through the point (-10, 1). Be
larisa86 [58]

the parallel line is 2x+5y+15=0.

Step-by-step explanation:

ok I hope it will work

soo,

Solution

given,

given parallel line 2x+5y=15

which goes through the point (-10,1)

now,

let 2x+5y=15 be equation no.1

then the line which is parallel to the equation 1st

2 x+5y+k = 0 let it be equation no.2

now the equation no.2 passes through the point (-10,1)

or, 2x+5y+k =0

or, 2*-10+5*1+k= 0

or, -20+5+k= 0

or, -15+k= 0

or, k= 15

putting the value of k in equation no.2 we get,

or, 2x+5y+k=0

or, 2x+5y+15=0

which is a required line.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

3?

Step-by-step explanation:

i think that because it's multiplying by 3.

3*3= 9

5*3= 15

7*3= 21

9*3= 27

This is the only way i could think of helping in some sort of way! I'm sorry if it's wrong! (´。_。`)
