Answer:

15/4

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportion question

It says 1/2 crates of apple are used for every 3/4 crates of oranges

For 5/2 crates of apple, x crates of oranges will be needed.

To get x, we simply multiply 1/2 by x and equate it to 3/4 multiplied by 5/2

This means: 0.5x = 0.75 × 2.5

x = ( 0.75 × 2.5 ) ÷ 0.5 = 3.75

Hence for 5/2 crates for apple, she will need 15/4 crates of oranges.

Find the value of r so that the line through (8,r) and (4,5) has a slope of -4
Ratling [72]

Answer:

r = - 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the slope m using the slope formula and equate to - 4

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (4, 5) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (8, r)

m = \frac{r-5}{8-4} = \frac{r-5}{4} = - 4 ( multiply both sides by 4 )

r - 5 = - 16 ( add 5 to both sides )

r = - 11
