The equation is: 4x + y + a = 0

Point (4, -3) ⇒ x = 4 and y = - 3

⇒ 4 · 4 - 3 + a = 0

16 - 3 +a = 0

13 + a = 0

a = -13

Ansver: equation is: 4x + y - 13 = 0 OR 4x + y = 13

A scientist had 3 1/2 liters of vinegar. He poured 2/3 of the vinegar into beaker. He then used 3/5 of the vinegar in the beaker

valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

A)2100 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given total vinegar is 3 1/2 liters and the used vinegar is 3/5 of the vinegar in the beaker:

#First calculate the amount of vinegar not poured in the beaker:

$V_o=V_t-V_b\\\\=3\frac{1}{2}(1-\frac{2}{3})\\\\=1\frac{1}{6}$

#Calculate amount of vinegar used in experiment:

$V_b=\frac{2}{3}V_t=\frac{2}{3}(3\frac{1}{2})=2\frac{1}{3}\\\\V_u=\frac{3}{5}V_b=\frac{3}{5}\times 2\frac{1}{3}=1\frac{2}{5}$

#The unused vinegar is therefore calculated by subtracting the used vinegar from the total at the start of the experiment:

$V_r=V_t-V_u\\\\=3\frac{1}{2}-1\frac{2}5}\\\\=2\frac{1}{10}\times 1000\ ml\\\\=2100\ ml$

Hence, the unused vinegar is 2100 ml
