FG : (3,7)(-4,-5)
slope = (-5 - 7) / (-4-3) = -12/-7 = 12/7
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 12/7
(3,7)...x = 3 and y = 7
now we sub, we r looking for b, the y int
7 = 12/7(3) + b
7 = 36/7 + b
7- 36/7 = b
49/7 - 36/7 = b
13/7 = b
so ur equation is : y = 12/7 + 13/7.....slope = 12/7, y int = 13/7
HI : (-1,0)(4,6)
slope = (6 - 0) / (4 - (-1) = 6/5
no need to go any farther.....these lines have different slopes...and their not negative reciprocals....so there will be one solution. Answer is : neither.
Answer: the box contained 9 square chocolates and 15 round chocolates.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of square chocolates contained in the box.
Let y represent the number of round chocolates contained in the box.
The box of chocolates contains square chocolates, which weigh 10g each and round chocolates which weigh 8g each. The combined weight of all the chocolates is 210g. It means that
10x + 8y = 210- - - - - - - - - - -1
The number of round chocolates is 3 less than twice the number of square chocolates. It means that
y = 2x - 3
Substituting y = 2x - 3 into equation 1, it becomes
10x + 8(2x - 3) = 210
10x + 16x - 24 = 210
26x = 210 + 24
26x = 234
x = 234/26
x = 9
y = 2x - 3 = 2 × 9 - 3
y = 18 - 3
y = 15
(1500 meters) / (about 3.5 minutes) =
(1500/about 3.5) (meters/minute) =
<em>about 428.6 meters/minute</em>
Hi there!
Everything looks correct except for the step to get to -6x < 36. Here you put multiplication property of order, and to get here you have to add 30 to both sides, so it would actually be the addition property of order.
I hope I helped!
