Three bags of wheat, two bags of corn, and one bag of oats weigh the same as one bag of wheat, one bag of corn and five bags of

oats. If two bags of corn and one bag of oats weighs 26 pounds, and one bag of corn weighs 10 pounds, how much does one bag of wheat weigh?

X = wheat, y = corn, z = oats

3x + 2y + z = x + 5z
2y + z = 26
y = 10 .........corn weighs 10 lbs

2y + z = 26
2(10) + z = 26
20 + z = 26
z = 26 - 20
z = 6 ......oats weigh 6 lbs

3x + 2y + z = x + 5z
3x + 2(10) + 6 = x + 5(6)
3x + 26 = x + 30
3x - x = 30 - 26
2x = 4
x = 4/2
x = 2 <=== wheat weighs 2 lbs

Her brother sent C. 490 messages.

In order to find this, we need to set it up as a proportion. Once we have done that, we can cross multiply and solve for the unknown variable.

(4/7) = (280/x) -----> Cross multiply.

4 * x = 7 * 280

4x = 1960

x = 490

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point (5, 6) and a slope of -2
mina [271]

Answer:

y = -2x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you plug in the values you know into the slop int. form, equation, in which it is y = mx +b. When you plug in the slope value then you will get the equation of y = -2x +b, in which then you have to solve for the b value.

In order to solve for the b value, you then plug in the x and y values of the coordinate that is given so what you would do is this:  6 = -2(5) +b

                                                                                               6 = -10 +b

                                                                                                16 = b

So then you find out b is 16 in which you just plug back into the equation. So finally you write the equation, y = -2x+16.

PLEASE HELP PLEASE 9TH GRADE MATH
wel

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

I believe it is A because for perpendicular lines the slope must be the reciprocal and have the opposite sign. The y-intercept 2 matches the coordinates (-2, 2). The second number, 2, is the y coordinate.
