Answer:

The smaller number is 22

The larger number is 30

Step-by-step explanation:

L + S = 52

L = S + 8

Set both equations equal to L.

S + 8 = -S + 52

+S        +S

2S + 8 = 52

     - 8    - 8

2S = 44

S = 22

To find the larger number, plug 22 in as S into the equations.

L = 30

A given line has the equation 10x+2y=-2.
Iteru [2.4K]

The equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis

If two lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.

We have the following line:

10x + 2y = -2\\2y = -10x-2\\y = -5x-1

Thus, the slope of the line is -5.

Therefore a parallel line is of the form:

y = -5x + b

We replace the point (0,12)

12 = -5 (0) + b\\12 = b

Finally, the equation is of the form:

y = -5x + 12

Answer:

5x + y = 12

You have 16 coins that are heads up and 18 coins that are tails up. After you add some coins that are tails up, the ratio of hea
Gwar [14]
So 16=heads
18=tails
after you add some tails
18+x

ratio of heads to tails is 1:1.5
heads=16, didn't change
tails=18+x

so
1:1.5=16:18+x
fractionify
1/1.5=16/(18+x)
1/1.5=2/3
2/3=16/(18+x)
mutiply both sides by (3)(18+x)
2(18+x)=3(16)
36+2x=48
subtract 36 from both sides
2x=12
divide 2
x=6

6 tails added


total=heads+tails
heads=16
tails=18+6=24
total=16+24
total=40



6 tails added
40 total coins

Help lol <br> question 1 and 2 <br> 15 points
DiKsa [7]

Answers:

  1. Choice B) y = (1/4)x
  2. The unit rate is <u>  3.89  </u> dollars per pound. It costs <u>  23.34  </u> dollars for a turkey that weighs 6 pounds.

=====================================================

Explanations:

  1. Direct proportional equations are always in the form y = kx, where k is some constant. In the case of choice B, we have k = 1/4. Visually, direct proportion equations are always straight lines and go through the origin.
  2. Divide $34.99 over 9 to get 34.99/9 = 3.88777 approximately. This rounds to 3.89, so it costs $3.89 per pound. That's the unit rate. Multiply this by 6 to get 6*3.89 = 23.34 which is the cost of the 6 pound turkey.
