A school goes through 10 gallons of milk in 3 days.

1 answer:

3 0

G = gallons d = days
10g = 3d
?g = 1d
1g = ?d
-------------
for gallons in a day, divide 10g = 3d by 3
d = 10/3 gallons
3 and 1/3 gallons in a day
---------------
for days per gallon, divide 10g = 3d by 10
g = 3/10 days
1 gallon lasts 3/10 of a day

A line, y = mx + b, passes through the point (10, 3) and is parallel to the line 2x+5y=12.

slava [35]

We have been given that a line $y=mx+b$ passes through the point (10, 3) and is parallel to the line $2x+5y=12$ . We are asked to find the y-intercept of the line.

First of all we will rewrite our given equation in slope-intercept form as:

$2x-2x+5y=12-2x$

$5y=-2x+12$

$\frac{5y}{5}=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{12}{5}$

$y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{12}{5}$

We know that slope of parallel lines is equal, so slope of parallel line to our given line would be $-\frac{2}{5}$ .

Now we will use slope-intercept form of equation to find y-intercept.

$y=mx+b$ , where,

m = Slope,

b = The y-intercept.

Let us substitute $m=-\frac{2}{5}$ and coordinates of point $(10,3)$ in above equation as:

$3=-\frac{2}{5}(10)+b$

$3=-2(2)+b$

$3=-4+b$

$3+4=-4+4+b$

$7=b$

Therefore, the y-intercept is 7 and our required equation would be $y=-\frac{2}{5}x+7$ .

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x+y=1\\-4x+y=-1&\text{change the signs}\end{array}\right\\\\\underline{+\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}-2x+y=1\\4x-y=1\end{array}\right}\qquad\text{add both sides of the equations}\\.\qquad2x=2\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\.\qquad x=1\\\\\text{Put it to the first equation:}\\\\-2(1)+y=1\\-2+y=1\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\y=3$

A supplies box contains 3 red crayons, 2 green crayons, and 6 blue crayons. If we choose a crayon, then another crayon without p

wel

Answer: 3/11 & 6/10

Step-by-Step explanation:

there are 11 crayons, 3 of which are red so the chance of picking a red one is 3 out of 11. now that you have taken out a crayon you take the original number and take away 1

11 - 1 = 10

so the chance of taking a blue canyon out is 6/10.

these events are dependent because if you didn't take the first crayon out of the supply box the answer would be 6/11 instead of the 6/10 we have
