Given the 2:3 ratio, we know there are 2 witches for every 3 mummies.

Cross multiply to solve the proportion for mummies.

(2/3) = (12/m)

2m = 36

m = 18

There were 18 mummies at the party.

A worker carries jugs of liquid soap from a production line to a packing area, carrying 4 jugs per trip. If the jugs are packed
Allisa [31]

Answer:

B. 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a worker carries jugs of liquid soap from a production line to a packing area, carrying 4 jugs per trip.

Since worker has made 17 trips, so total number of hugs of liquid soap would be 17 times number of jugs carried per trip.

17\times 4=68.

Since each carton holds 7 jugs, so number of cartoons would be \frac{68}{7}.

\frac{68}{7}\Rightarrow \frac{63+5}{7}=9\frac{5}{7}

We can see that there are 9 completely filled cartoons and there are 5 jugs remaining, so we need 7-5=2 jugs.

Therefore, we need 2 jugs to fill the 10th cartoon and option B is the correct choice.

If m + n = 7 and 2n - 3m = 6, what is the value of 3n - 2m ?
S_A_V [24]
Since m + n = 7 we know m = 7-n. So now we have 2n - 3(7-n) = 6. From this we get n = -3. So now we know m - 3 = 7 so m = 10. So now we have 3(-3) + 2(10) = ? and this comes out as 11

What is the equation, in point slope form, of the line
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

y=3/2x+11/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! Sorry  I just saw this

Anyways, let's continue

first, we need to find the equation of the line with the one that is (-2,-4) and (2,2)

first, we need to find the slope

the equation for slope is y2-y1/x2-x1

so let's label the points

x1=-2

y1=-4

x2=2

y2=2

now plug it in

2-(-4)/2-(-2)=6/4=3/2

now, let's turn it into a line

the point-slope form is y-y1=m(x-x1) (m=slope)

now, plug it in

y-(-4)=3/2(x-(-2))

simplify to

y+4=3/2(x+2)

turn into y=mx+b format

y+4=3/2x+3

subtract 4 on both sides

y=3/2x-1

Now for the line that is parallel.

Parallel lines have the same slopes, so you automatically know that the new line will be y=3/2x+b

To make sure (-3,1) is a solution to the point, put 1 as y and -3 as x

1=3/2(-3)+b

1=-9/2+b

add 9/2 on both sides

b=11/2 or 5.5

now, put it into the equation

y=3/2x+11/2

Hope this helps!
