Answer:

75 gallons of water

180 gallons of premium anti-freeze

Step-by-step explanation:

X + Y = 255

X = 255 - Y

0.85Y = 0.6(255)

0.85Y = 153

Y = 180

X = 255 - 180

X = 75

How do you do this math
Basile [38]

Answer: y = -3x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to write a <u>linear equation</u> is with slope-intercept form.               Slope-intercept form is y = mx + b, where m is the slope, and b is the              y-intercept.

Thus, the equation is y = -3x - 6

Hope it helps :) and let me know if you are confused anywhere.

Find the equation of the line which has slope of -5 and y-intercept 7. Give your answer in the form y=mx+b
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

y = - 5x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + b ( m is the slope and b the y- intercept )

Here m = - 5 and b = 7, thus

y = - 5x + 7 ← equation of line

Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Standard error for the proportion of social media users who are concerned about privacy

S.E = 0.0219

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>-

Given data recent survey of 500 social media users, 300 stated that they were concerned about privacy

<em>Size of random sample 'n' = 500</em>

<em>                                         x = 300</em>

<em>sample proportion         </em>p = \frac{x}{n} = \frac{300}{500} = 0.6<em></em>

Standard error for the proportion of social media users who are concerned about privacy is determined by

                 S.E = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }<em></em>

<em>                 </em>S.E = \sqrt{\frac{0.6(1-0.6)}{500} }= 0.0219<em></em>

Find equation of vertical line through (-5, -3)
Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that it is a vertical line, we know that it will only go through one x-value.

We are also given a point, (-5, -3).

This point tells us that the vertical line only goes through the x-value -5, so the equation will be x = -5.

Find the measure of the each angle indicated. HELP
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

(n-2)180 (this is the equation to find the sum of interior angles)

(4-2) 180 (plug in the amount of angles in the polygon and then solve)

2* 180

360

360 - 115 -100- 73= 72 (360 is the sum of all angles for this polygon. so subtract the known angles to find the unknown one)

measure of angle B is 72 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:
