Step-by-step explanation:</h3>
4. For x > -2, the value of a is the slope of the line. The line goes down 3 units for each 1 to the right, so the slope is -3/1 = -3. Then a = -3.
___
5. The ordered pair (h, k) is typically used to name the point to which a function is translated. The vertex of the function f(x) = |x| is (0, 0). When it is translated to (h, k), the function becomes ...
... q(x) = |x -h| +k
If the new vertex is (3, 0), then h = 3 and k = 0. This is consistent with the equation shown. (k = 0 means q(x) = |x -h|.)

Answer: 1
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>let x = the number of liters of the 20% solution.
let y = the number of liters of the 60% solution.
you want x + y to be equal to 40 liters.
x is the number of liters total in the first solution.
y is the number of liters total in the second solution.
you want .2 * x + .6 * y to be equal to .35 * 40
.2 * x is the number of liters of acid in the first solution.
.6 * y is the number of liters of acid in the second solution.
.35 * 40 is the number of liters of acid in the final solution.
you have two equations that need to be solved simultaneously.
they are:
x + y = 40
.2x + .6y = .35*40
simplify these equations to get:
x + y = 40
.2x + .6y = 14
you can solve by substitution or by elimination or by graphing.
i will solve this one by graphing.
this means to graph both equations and find the intersection.
the graph looks like this:
the graph says the intersection is at the coordinate point of (25,15).
this means that x = 25 and y = 15.
x is the number of liters of the 20% solution.
y is the number of liters of the 60% solution.
the formula of .2x + .6y = 14 becomes .2 * 25 + .6 * 15 = 14.
simplify this equation to get 14 = 14.
this confirms the solution is good.
