If the ratio of wiping is the green peas is 2 to 8 and there are a total of 30 pens how many pens are white

1 answer:

8 0

2x+8x=30. x= #of pens

10x=30. combine like terms

x=3. divide by 10 to isolate (get by itself) x

2(3)=6. the # of white pens are represented by 2x

6 white pens

hope this helped!

1. What is the y-inter slope of the graph? What does it mean in terms of this situation?

notka56 [123]

Answer:

1. the y-intercept is 9.5 and it means the starting length of the candle

2. the slope is -1/2 and it means that the candle burns 1/2 an inch every hour

3. it burns an inch every 2 hours, it is 9.5 inches long, so 19 hours it'll take to burn.

Slope = 2/5; passes through (-3,1)

nydimaria [60]

Presumably we're after the line with that slope through that point. In general the line through $(a,b)$ with slope $m$ is

$y-b = m(x-a)$

Here we have $a=-3, b=1, m=\frac 2 5$

$y - 1 = \frac 2 5 (x--3)$

$y = \frac 2 5 x + \frac 6 5 + 1$

$y = \frac 2 5 x + \frac{11}{5}$

Check: The slope is clearly $\frac 2 5$
so we check

$y = \frac 2 5 (-3) +\frac{11}{5} = \frac 5 5 = 1 \quad\checkmark$
