Ratio of Nickel to Zinc:

( 2/7 ) = ( Nickel /4.9)

Nickel = 1.4 lbs.

Ratio of Copper to Zinc:

( 9/7 ) = ( Copper /4.9)

Copper = 6.3 lbs.

Alloy = Zinc + Nickel + Copper

Alloy = 4.9 lbs. + 1.4 lbs. + 6.3 lbs.

Alloy = 12.6 lbs.

Hope this answer will be a good h<span>elp for you.</span>

Write the slope intercept form of the equation of the line through the given points x intercept of -5 and y intercept of -1. Pls

soldier1979 [14.2K]

bearing in mind that an x-intercept is when the graph touches the x-axis and when that happens y = 0, and a y-intercept is when the graph touches the y-axis and when that happens x = 0.

$\bf \underset{x-intercept}{(\stackrel{x_1}{-5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})}\qquad \underset{y-intercept}{(\stackrel{x_2}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-1})} ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-1}-\stackrel{y1}{0}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{0}-\underset{x_1}{(-5)}}}\implies \cfrac{-1}{0+5}\implies -\cfrac{1}{5}$

$\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{0}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{1}{5}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-5)}] \\\\\\ y=-\cfrac{1}{5}(x+5)\implies y = -\cfrac{1}{5}x-1$

Together, the areas of the rectangles sum to 30 square centimeters.

Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer:

3x+2y

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the rectangles attached

Area of a rectangle = Length * Width

A = A1+A2

given

A = 30cm²

A1 = 3 * x

A1 = 3x

A2 = 2*y

A2 = 2y

Substitute

30 = 3x+2y

Hence the required equation is 3x+2y = 30
