Hi there!
We can create an equation for the line PR using the given coordinates. Use the following formula for the slope:
Plug in the coordinates for P and R:
Find the equation by using point-slope form:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
Plug in a coordinate and the slope:
y - (-5) = -4/3(x - ( - 1))
Simplify:
y + 5 = -4/3(x + 1)
To find the y-coordinate if x = 2, plug in the x value:
y + 5 = -4/3(2 + 1)
y + 5 = -4/3(3)
y + 5 = -4
y = -9
Thus, the coordinate is (2, -9)
I guess the chef is making the mixture for the sheriff... Let <em>x</em> be the amount of dressing with 5% vinegar that is required, and <em>y</em> the amount of 15% vinegar dressing (both amounts in mL).
The sheriff wants 390 mL of the mixed dressing, so that
<em>x</em> + <em>y</em> = 390
<em>x</em> mL of the 5% dressing contains 0.05<em>x</em> mL of vinegar, while <em>y</em> mL of the 15% dressing contains 0.15<em>y</em> mL of vinegar. The resulting mixture should have a concentration of 9% vinegar, so that it contains 0.09 (390 mL) = 35.1 mL of vinegar. This means
0.05<em>x</em> + 0.15<em>y</em> = 35.1
Solve for <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> :
<em>y</em> = 390 - <em>x</em>
0.05<em>x</em> + 0.15 (390 - <em>x</em>) = 35.1
0.05<em>x</em> + 58.5 - 0.15<em>x</em> = 35.1
23.4 = 0.10<em>x</em>
<em>x</em> = 234
<em>y</em> = 156
Answer:
x = 14.4
Step-by-step explanation:
x is sin(angle 24/30)×24
how do we get the angle at 24/30 ?
by using the extended Pythagoras for baselines opposite other than 90 degrees.
c² = a² + b² - 2ab×cos(angle opposite of c)
in our example the angle 24/30 is opposite of the side 18.
so,
18² = 24² + 30² - 2×24×30×cos(angle 24/30)
324 = 576 + 900 - 1440×cos(angle 24/30)
324 = 1476 - 1440×cos(angle 24/30)
1440×cos(angle 24/30) = 1152
cos(angle 24/30) = 1152/1440 = 576/720 = 288/360 = 144/180 = 72/90 = 36/45 = 12/15 = 4/5
angle 24/30 = 36.9 degrees
x = sin(36.9) × 24 = 14.4
3x+2(3x-3)=2
9x-6=2
9x=8
X=8/9
Well the ratio would be 8:24, or in reduced form, 1:3. you would solve it by taking sale of strawberry yogurt for the first half of the ratio, and then adding up all of the values to get the total.
