f+b=160 and f = 2b+12 can be used to find out the number of football cards and number of baseball cards Joey has.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total cards Joey have = 160

Let,

f be the number of football cards.

b be the number of baseball cards.

According to given statement;

f+b=160 Eqn 1

The number of football cards, f, is 12 more than twice the number of baseball cards.

f = 2b+12 Eqn 2

f+b=160 and f = 2b+12 can be used to find out the number of football cards and number of baseball cards Joey has.

Write an equation in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to 3x + 2y equals 12 and passes through the point (1,2)

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The equation is y = (2/3)x + (4/3).

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to change the equation into slope-intecept formula to find its gradient (slope) :

$3x + 2y = 12$

$2y = - 3x + 12$

$y = - \frac{3}{2}x + 6$

Given that when a line is perpendicular to the other line, their slope value multiplied, will form -1. Next, we have to find the slope for line :

$m1 \times m2 = - 1$

$- \frac{3}{2} \times m2 = - 1$

$m2 = - 1 \div - \frac{3}{2}$

$m2 = \frac{2}{3}$

Lastly, we have to subatitute the x and y values into the equation, to find its intercept value :

$y = \frac{2}{3}x + b$

$let \: x = 1,y = 2$

$2 = \frac{2}{3} (1) + b$

$b = 2 - \frac{2}{3}$

$b = \frac{4}{3}$

$y = \frac{2}{3} x + \frac{4}{3}$

Light shines through window what is the area of a trapezoid shaped region created by the light

bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

16 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached.

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral (has four sides) with one a parallel base. The base angles and the diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are equal.

The area of a trapezoid = [(sum of the parallel bases) / 2] * height of the trapezoid.

Given that the parallel bases are 3 ft and 5 ft, while the height of the trapezoid is 4 ft. Hence:

The area of a trapezoid = [(3 + 5)/2] * 4

The area of a trapezoid = 16 ft²

Please answer this correctly

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

63.2 = y

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of all the sides

P = 7.8+ y+37.6 + y

171.8 = 7.8+ y+37.6 + y

Combine like terms

171.8 = 45.4 + 2y

Subtract 45.4 from both sides

171.8-45.4 = 45.4 + 2y -45.4

126.4 = 2y

Divide each side by 2

126.4/2 = 2y/2

63.2 = y
