The ratio of wooden bats to metal bats in

<h3>Answer: 10 metal bats</h3>

"Ratio of wooden bats to metal bats is 2 to 1" basically means "there are twice as many wooden bats (compared to metal ones)". So if we had 3 metal bats, then we'd have 2*3 = 6 wooden bats. If we had 7 metal bats, then we have 14 wooden ones (because 2*7 = 14). And so on. The basic rule is to multiply the amount of metal bats by 2 to get the amount of wooden ones.

We can go in reverse to divide the amount of wooden bats to get the amount of metal ones. So 20/2 = 10 is the amount of metal bats.

------------------

A more formal approach is to use the proportion below to solve for x

20/x = 2/1

20*1 = x*2

20 = 2x

2x = 20

2x/2 = 20/2

x = 10

and we get the same answer.

In the figure, two poles are 25 m and 35 m high. A cable 23 m long Joins the tops of the poles. Find the distance between the po
sukhopar [10]

Answer: 20.71 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

the length of the poles are 25m and 35 m

The length of the cable is 23 m

Suppose the distance between them is x

From the figure, apply Pythagoras theorem

\Rightarrow 23^=x^2+10^2\\\Rightarrow 529-100=x^2\\\Rightarrow x^2=429\\\\\Rightarrow x=\sqrt{429}=20.71\ m

Distance between Poles is 20.71 m

Identify an equation in slope intercept form for the line parallel to Y equals 4X -9 that passes through (-5,3)
Kobotan [32]

Slope intercept form of a line is y=mx+b where m= slope and b=y-intercept.

Now compare this form with the tiven equation y=4x-9 to get the value of m.

So, m= 4.

Slope of all parallel lines are always equal. Which means the line which is parallel to this has also the same slope: m=4.

Now we need to find the value of b to get the equation. That parallel line passes through (-5,3).

The point intercept form of a line is,

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

So, we can plug in the m=4, x1=-5 and y1=3 in the above equation. Hence,

y-3=4(x-(-5))

y-3=4(x+5) Since -(-5)=+5

y-3=4x+20 By distributing property.

y=4x+20+3 Adding 3 to each sides.

y=4x+23

So, the slope-intercept form of that parallel line is y=4x+23.
