The average temperature for freezing foods is less than -17°C. Which of the following best describes this situation?

Natali [406]

Answer:

Slope is defined as rise over run, which can be expressed as the difference of the y-coordinates divided by the difference of the x-coordinates. If we rise, we are moving vertically, or along the y-axis. If we run, we are moving horizontally, or along the x-axis.

The formula for the slope m of a line given two points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) that lie on the line is:

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

m = (15 - 5)/(-6 - 4)

m= 10/-10

m = -1

Now, we can use the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line to obtain the equation of the line that satisfies the conditions outlined in the problem. Slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

Again, m represents the slope, while b stands for the y-intercept. We can use either point on the line to represent x and y. Let's choose the point (4, 5)

5 = -1(4) + b

5 = -4 + b

9 = b

The equation of the line is:

y = -x + 9

A chef uses 4 3/4 cups of broth for 10 servings of soup. How much broth used in each serving of soup? Let x represent the number

kozerog [31]

Answer: 0.475 cups of broth per serving.

Explanation:

1) Ratio given:

i) To facilitate the operations, transform the mixed number 4 3/4 cups into improper fraction:

4 + 3/4 = [16 + 3] / 4 = 19 / 4

ii) ratio broth: servings

$\frac{ \frac{19}{4}cups }{10servings}$

2) Proportion with the unknown number of cups of broth per serving:

$\frac{ \frac{19}{4}cups }{10servings}= \frac{x}{1serving}$

3) Solve for the unknown:

x = [19 / 4] cups × 1 serving / 10 servings = 19 / 40 cups = 0.475 cups

84% 84, percent of astrid's books are fiction. What fraction of astrid's books are fiction?

yuradex [85]

Let number of books by astrid's = x

Out of x , 84% are fiction.

So, Number of non fictional books = x - $\frac{84x}{100}$
