<h3>Amount of sand craig and Alissa collect together at one time is 1.4 pounds</h3>
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Craig and Alissa are building a sandcastle on the beach. They each have a bucket
Craig's bucket holds 1/2 pound of sand and Alissa's bucket holds 9/10 pound of sand
Therefore,
<em><u>How much sand can craig Alissa collect together at one time</u></em>
Add both, we get
Thus, amount of sand craig and Alissa collect together at one time is 1.4 pounds
8,-2. place the x as 8 and y as -2.
Answer:
x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
2x/3 + 1 = 7x/15 + 3
<em><u>(times everything in the equation by 3 to get rid of the first fraction)</u></em>
2x + 3 = 21x/15 + 9
<em><u>(times everything in the equation by 15 to get rid of the second fraction)</u></em>
30x+ 45 = 21x + 135
<em><u>(subtract 21x from 30x; subtract 45 from 135)</u></em>
9x = 90
<em><u>(divide 90 by 9)</u></em>
x = 10
<h2>
Another solution:</h2>
2x/3 + 1 = 7x/15 + 3
<u><em>(find the LCM of 3 and 15 = 15)</em></u>
<u><em>(multiply everything in the equation by 15, then simplify)</em></u>
10x + 15 = 7x + 45
<u><em>(subtract 7x from 10x; subtract 15 from 45)</em></u>
3x = 30
<em><u>(divide 30 by 3)</u></em>
x = 10
Answer:
y = 
x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
y = - 
x ← is in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - , c = 0
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= - 
= - 
= , then
y = x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (3, - 8) into the partial equation
- 8 = 4 + c ⇒ c = - 8 - 4 = - 12
y = x - 12 ← equation of perpendicular line
