Answer:
The slope would be -1
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason for this is that parallel lines will always go in the same direction, just from different locations. So in this case, we do not need to find the position of the line r but the slope. If line r's slope was different, they would intersect at some point and it wouldn't be parallel any more.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a+b=9500 equation 1
35a+55b=432500 equation 2
a=9500-b modified equation 1 to isolate a
35(9500-b)+55b=432500 substitute value of a in equ 1 into value of a equ 2
332500-35b+55b=432500
20b=100000
b=5000
solve for a
a + b=9500
a + 5000=9500
a=4500
check answer:
35a+55b=432500
35(4500)+55(5000)=432500
157500+275000=432500
432500=432500
<u>B) </u>
<u>C) </u> volume =
.
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , The base of an open rectangular box is of length (2x+5) cm and width x cm. The area of this base is 58cm^2. The height of the open box is (x-2) cm. We need to find the following :
a) show that 2x^2+5x-58=0
We know that area of rectangle = 
⇒ 
Putting values according to question we get :
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
b) solve the equation in the question above, giving your answer to 2 decimal places
Solving this equation :
⇒ 
By quadratic formula
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒
{ Since side can't be negative ! }
⇒ 
c) calculate the volume of the box, stating units of you answer
Since x = 4.28 , other sides are

We know that volume is given by :
⇒ 
⇒ 
⇒ 
Therefore , volume =
.
Part A.
Consider a punch containing L liters.
60% of these that is

is grape juice, and the rest, 0.4 L is lemon-soda.
so, for the variable L, the total amount of punch, the total amount of grape juice is 0.6 L
and the amount of lemon soda in the punch is 0.4L
Part B.
For L=2, we substitute and get:
0.6 L=0.6 * 2 liters = 1.2 liters of grape juice
0.4 L = 0.4 * 2 liters = 0.8 liters of lemon soda.
