ANSWER

y - x = - 1

EXPLANATION

The required equation passes through:

(4,3) and is perpendicular to x+y=4.

Rewrite the given equation in slope-intercept form:

y = - x + 4

The slope of this line is -1.

The slope of the required line is perpendicular to this line, so we find the negative reciprocal of this slope.

m= - \frac{1}{ - 1} = 1

The equation of the line can be found using:

y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)

We substitute the slope and point to obtain:

y - 3 = 1(x - 4)

We simplify to get:

y - 3 = x - 4

y - x = - 4 + 3

The required equation is

y - x = - 1

a = 2c

35(2c) + 25c = 2660
70c + 25c = 2660
95c = 2660
c = 2660/95

a = 2(28)

Find the midpoint of NP⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ given N(2a, 2b) and P(2a, 0).
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

(2a, b )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint is

[ \frac{1}{2}(x₁ + x₂ ), \frac{1}{2}(y₁ + y₂ ) ]

Here (x₁, y₁ ) = N(2a, 2b) and (x₂, y₂ ) = P(2a, 0), thus

midpoint = [ \frac{1}{2}(2a + 2a), \frac{1}{2}(2b + 0 ) ] = (2a, b )

You need 660 mL of a 40% alcohol solution. On hand, you have 35% alcohol mixture. You also have a 95% alcohol mixture. How much
ozzi

Answer:

A. 605 mL of the 35% solution

B. 55 mL of the 95% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, you need 660 mL of a 40% alcohol solution. On hand, you have 35% alcohol mixture. You also have a 95% alcohol mixture.

Let x and y be the amount of 35% alcohol solution and 95% alcohol solution (in mL) respectively.

So,

Amount equation: x+y=660        ...(1)

Alcohol equation : 0.35x+0.95y=0.40(660)\Rightarrow 0.35x+0.95y=264     ...(2)

On solving (1) and (2), we get

0.35(660-y)+0.95y=264

231-0.35y+0.95y=264

0.6y=264-231

y=\dfrac{33}{0.6}

y=55

Now, substitute y=55 in (1).

x+55=660  

x=660-55  

x=605  

Therefore, we need 605 mL of the 35% solution  and 55 mL of the 95% solution.
