C + t = 127
c = 2t + 4

Substitute 2t + 4 for c.

(2t + 4) + t = 127

3t + 4 = 127

3t = 123

t = 41

c = 2(41) + 4 = 86

Answer: 86 cars and 41 trucks.

Use logarithms to solve each equation 2x9/8=111

Illusion [34]

<span>We have this equation:
</span>
$2x^{\frac{9}{8}} = 111$

and we need to find the value of x.

First of all, we multiply the whole equation for 1/2, so our goal is to isolate x, therefore:

$x^{\frac{9}{8}}=\frac{111}{2}$

Next step we must do is to apply <span>logarithms:
</span>
$logx^{\frac{9}{8}} = log(\frac{111}{2})$

Next, we have to apply identities and then to solve the equation:

$\frac{9}{8}logx = log(\frac{111}{2})$
$logx = \frac{8}{9}log(\frac{111}{2})$
$logx = 1.5504$
$10^{logx} = 10^{1.5504}$

Finally, we have the value of x which was our goal. This is the answer for the question above:

$x= 35.5140$

Given the question in the image, the following are the solution steps to answer the question.

STEP 1: Write the given data

$\begin{gathered} 165,46,20,88,180,45,85,165,8,8,23,26,67,168,136,21,143,8,84,22,106,131,16,152,171,64,33,116,151,117,99,61,159 \\ 73,51,136 \end{gathered}$

STEP 2: Find the mean

$\begin{gathered} mean=\frac{sum\text{ of data values}}{number\text{ of data values}} \\ sum\text{ of data values}=3144 \\ Number\text{ of data values}=36 \\ mean=\frac{3144}{36}=87.33333333\approx87.33 \end{gathered}$

mean is 87.33

What is an equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6)?

olganol [36]

Answer:

The equation of the line is.

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The given points are (0, -4) and (-4, 6)

The equation of the line passing through the points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ is.

$\frac{x-x_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}=\frac{y-y_{1}}{y_{2}-y_{1}}$

Thus, the equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6) is

$\frac{x-0}{(-4)-0}=\frac{y-(-4)}{6-(-4)}$

$\frac{x}{-4}=\frac{y+4}{6+4}$

$-\frac{x}{4}=\frac{y+4}{10}$

$-\frac{10x}{4}=y+4$

$-10x=4(y+4)$

$-10x=4y+16$

$4y=-10x-16$

The above equation is divided by 2 both sides.

$2y=-5x-8$

$y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$

Therefore, the equation of the line that passes through the points (0, -4) and (-4, 6) is $y=-\frac{5}{2}x-4$
