Whenever you want to write the equation of a parallel line through some point (h, k), you can ...
- remove any added constant in the original given equation
- replace x with (x-h)
- replace y with (y-k)
- rearrange the resulting equation to the form required by the problem.
Using this formula here, we get
... 2(y +5) = 3(x -2)
Your answer form requires you solve this for y.
... 2y + 10 = 3x -6 . . . . . eliminate parentheses
... 2y = 3x -16 . . . . . . . . subtract the constant on the left (10)
... y = (3/2)x -8 . . . . . . divide by 2
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of ways they can line up is 3×2×1 = 6. Only one of these is alphabetical order. The probability that they will line up randomly in alphabetical order is 1/6.
__
Any of the three can line up first; either of the remaining two can line up second, and the remaining person can line up last. Thus there are 3×2×1 possible orders.
Answer:
, x = 6 ton
Step-by-step explanation:
The truck can be filled with a total of 20 ton.
There are already 14 ton inside the truck, so if we call x the weight of goods that we can still add into the truck, we know that (x+14) must be equal at most at 20. Therefore, the inequality becomes:
Solving it, we find
which means that the most amount of goods that could be added to the truck is 6 tons.
b(1 -2) i just too the test
If the tax was 10%, then you’d end up paying the original 100% plus the additional 10% tax, so you’d pay 110% of the original price.
In your example, it’s the same, except you have 8.25% tax, so you’d pay 100%+8,25% or 108.25% of the original price.
That’s stated as a percent.
To convert a percent to a decimal, you divide by 100:
108.25 ÷ 100 = 1.0825
To convert a decimal to a fraction, you have to know the place value of the smallest place. In this case, the 5 is in the ten thousandths place.
10825/10000
You can always double check that fraction on a calculator.
