Answer:

n = ( 40 - m )

Step-by-step explanation:

On a particular day, Ricardo drank a total of 40 fluid ounces of water.

If he drank m fluid ounces of water in the morning of that day, then the number of fluid ounces of water he drank the rest of the day is given by (40 - m) fluid ounces.

If n represents the number of fluid ounces water that he drank the rest of the day, then we can write the equation as

n = ( 40 - m )

Therefore, the above equation can be used to find n. (Answer)

What is an equation in point-slope form for the line perpendicular to y = 7x + 14 that contains (3, –7)?

umka21 [38]

The equation of the perpendicular line is y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

<h3>How to determine the line equation?</h3>

The equation is given as

y = 7x + 14

Also, from the question

The point is given as

Point = (3, -7)

The equation of a line can be represented as

y = mx + c

Where

Slope = m

By comparing the equations, we have the following

m = 7

This means that the slope of y = 7x + 14 is 7

So, we have

m = 7

The slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals

This means that the slope of the other line is -1/7

The equation of the perpendicular lines is then calculated as

y = m(x - x₁) +y₁

Where

m = -1/7

(x₁, y₁) = (3, -7)

So, we have

y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7

Evaluate

y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7

Add 7 to both sides

y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

Hence, the perpendicular line has an equation of y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)

Simple the expression <br> ( 3k + 4 1/5) + 8 3/5

lesantik [10]

Answer:

$3k+12\frac{4}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(3k+12\frac{4}{5})$

Convert mixed numbers to improper fractions:

$a\frac{b}{c}=\frac{a*c+b}{c}$

$4\frac{1}{5}=\frac{4*5+1}{5}$

$=\frac{21}{5}$

$=(3k+\frac{21}{5} )+\frac{43}{5}$

Add the fractions

$\frac{21}{5}+\frac{43}{5}$

$\frac{21}{5} \frac{43}{5} =\frac{64}{5}$

$=3k+\frac{64}{5}$

Divide 64 by 5

$\frac{64}{5}$ $12.8 or 12\frac{4}{5}$

$=3k+12\frac{4}{5}$

A new school has x day students and y boarding students.

guapka [62]

Given:

The fees for a day student are $600 a term.

The fees for a boarding student are $1200 a term.

The school needs at least $720000 a term.

To show:

That the given information can be written as $x + 2y\geq 1200$ .

Solution:

Let x be the number of day students and y be the number of boarding students.

The fees for a day student are $\$600$ a term.

So, the fees for $x$ day students are $\$600x$ a term.

The fees for a boarding student are $\$1200$ a term.

The fees for $y$ boarding student are $\$1200y$ a term.

Total fees for $x$ day students and $y$ boarding student is:

$\text{Total fees}=600x+1200y$

The school needs at least $720000 a term. It means, total fees must be greater than or equal to $720000.

$600x+1200y\geq 720000$

$600(x+2y)\geq 720000$

Divide both sides by 600.

$\dfrac{600(x+2y)}{600}\geq \dfrac{720000}{600}$

$x+2y\geq 1200$

Hence proved.
