What is the equation of the line

Mathematics
1 answer:
olga2289 [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

It's the first choice y = (-5/2)x - 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line  5x + 2y = 12 by converting to slope-intercept form.

5x + 2y = 12

2y = -5x + 12

y = (-5/2)x + 6   so the slope is (-5/2).

The line we require had also a slope of -5/2 because it is parallel to the first line and it also passes through the point (-2, 4). So:

y - 4 = (-5/2)(x - -2)      (the point-slope form)

y - 4 = (-5/2)(x + 2)

y = (-5/2)x - 5 + 4

y = (-5/2)x - 1  (answer)

There are 11 trains containing giraffes and 7 trains containing rabbits.

<h3>Equation</h3>

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the number of train with giraffes and y represent the number of train with rabbits.

Hence:

25x = 40y

25x - 40y = 0    (1)

Also:

25x + 40y > 500   (2)

From both equations:

A possible solution is x = 11, y = 7

There are 11 trains containing giraffes and 7 trains containing rabbits.

Jason has already used 4/12 cans of paint while painting furniture. He is painting chairs which each use 10/6 cans of paint.
Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

Based off of the calculations I did, I got 32 as the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason uses 10/6 of the paint for each chair he paints and according to the question, there are 19 chairs.

So we multiply these two numbers to get the amount of paint used after painting all 19 chairs.

10/6 * 19 = 31.666...

Then we add the previous amount Jason used for painting the furniture to the total amount of paint used after painting the 19 chairs.

31.666... + 4/12 = 32.

Thus, Jason used 32 cans of paint in total.
