#59)

Joe: 5a + 4b = 6 (1st)

Dawn: 3a + 6b = 6.3 (2nd)

Multiply 1st equation by 3 and 2nd equation by (-5) to eliminate a

15a + 12b = 18

-15a - 30b = -31.5

------------------------------Add

-18b = - 13.5

b = 0.75

substitute b = 0.75 into 5a + 4b = 6

5a + 4(0.75) = 6

5a + 3 = 6

5a = 3

a = 0.6

Answer: Apple cost 60 cents each and banana cost 75 cents each

#60)

Wesley and Brian have total 87 baseball cards.

W + B = 87

Wesley has 30 less than twice as many as Brian

W = 2B - 30 (2nd)

So

W + B = 87

2B - 30 + B = 87

3B = 117

B = 39

W + 39 = 87

W = 48

Answer: Wesley has 48 cards and Brian has 39 cards

Hope they help.

Can anyone help me with this problem??

Answer:

  (a)  4/3

  (b)  y -3 = 4/3(x -1)

  (c)  y -3 = -3/4(x -1)

  (d)  r = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The slope is given by the slope formula:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (7 -3)/(4 -1) = 4/3

__

b) The radius is normal to the circle. The point-slope form of the equation for a line can be useful here:

  y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)

For slope 4/3, the line through point (1, 3) will have the equation ...

  y -3 = 4/3(x -1) . . . . point-slope equation of the normal

__

c) The tangent is perpendicular to the radius. It will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the slope of the radius: -1/(4/3) = -3/4.

  y -3 = -3/4(x -1) . . . . point-slope equation of the tangent

__

d) The radius can be found from the distance formula.

  d = √((x2 -x1)² +(y2 -y1)²)

  d = √((4 -1)² +(7 -3)²) = √(3² +4²) = √25 = 5

The radius of the circle is 5.

What is the slope of the line on the graph below?
allsm [11]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for this line is y=2x+1

The slope of the line is 2 because it moves 2 up on the y scale after it moves 1 on the x scale.

The answer is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

i) \dfrac{(5\frac{4}{45} -4 \frac{1}{6})\div5\frac{8}{15}   }{(4\frac{2}{3} +0.75)\times3\frac{9}{13}}\times34\frac{2}{7} + \frac{0.3\div0.01}{70} + \frac{2}{7}

ii)\dfrac{(\frac{229}{45} -\frac{25}{6})\div\frac{83}{15}   }{(\frac{14}{3} +\frac{3}{4})\times\frac{48}{13}}\times\frac{240}{7} + \frac{30}{70} + \frac{2}{7}

<h3 />

iii)(\dfrac{(\frac{458}{90} -\frac{375}{90})\times\frac{15}{83}   }{(\frac{56}{12} +\frac{9}{12})\times\frac{48}{13}}\times\frac{240}{7}) + \frac{30}{70} + \frac{2}{7}

<h3 />

iv) (\dfrac{(\frac{83}{90})\times\frac{15}{83}   }{(\dfrac{65}{12} )\times\dfrac{48}{13}}\times\dfrac{240}{7}) + \dfrac{30}{70} + \dfrac{2}{7}

<h3 />

v)(\dfrac{(\frac{1}{6})   }{(5\times4)}\times\dfrac{240}{7}) + \dfrac{30}{70} + \dfrac{20}{70}

<h3 />

vi)(\dfrac{1}{(6\times5\times4)}\times\dfrac{240}{7}) + \dfrac{50}{70}

<h3 />

vii)(\dfrac{1}{120}\times\dfrac{240}{7}) + \dfrac{50}{70}

viii)(\dfrac{2}{7}) + \dfrac{50}{70}

ix)\dfrac{20}{70} +\dfrac{50}{70}

x)= \dfrac{70}{70} \hspace{0.2cm} = \hspace{0.2cm} 1
