So 3x=6+4y
divide both of the equations by 3
x=2+4y÷3
x=2+4/3 y
your answer
x=2+4/3 y hope this will help

Andy and Christopher are measuring a liquid solution using graduated cylinders, Andy uses 3.5 liters of the liquid solution, and

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

$Ratio = 0.74$

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent

- Andy with A

- Christopher with C

$A = 3.5L$

$C = 2580mL$

Required

Determine the ratio of C to A

Ratio is represented as thus:

$Ratio = C:A$

Rewrite as fraction

$Ratio = \frac{C}{A}$

This gives

$Ratio = \frac{2580mL}{3.5L}$

Convert L to mL

$Ratio = \frac{2580mL}{3.5*1000mL}$

$Ratio = \frac{2580mL}{3500mL}$

$Ratio = \frac{2580}{3500}$

$Ratio = 0.73714285714$

$Ratio = 0.74$ --- Approximated

The height of a triangle is 8 centimeters greater than half its base. The area of the triangle is 48 square centimeters what is

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

base = 8 cm

height = 12 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We will need the formula for area of a trianlge, which is

A = (1/2)bh where b is the base, and h is the height

We are given two formulas...

"The height of a triangle is 8 centimeters greater than half its base" becomes

h = (1/2)b + 8

"The area of the triangle is 48 square centimeters" becomes

48 = (1/2)bh

Plug the first formula into the second to solve for h

48 = (1/2)b[(1/2) + 8] (h becomes (1/2)b + 8)

Now solve for b

48 = (1/4)b² + 4b

**This is a quadratic euquation. Solve using factoring...

(1/4)b² + 4b - 48 = 0 (subtract 48 from both sides)

b² + 16b - 192 = 0 (multiply by 4 so b² is by itself, it's easier to factor this way)

Now factor...

(b + 24)(b - 8) = 0 (you need two numbers that add to 16 and multiply to -192)

Set each binomial equal to zero and solve for b

b + 24 = 0

b = -24

**this anwser is not valid because b is a length, and you can't have negative length

b - 8 = 0

b = 8

Since the other solution is invalid, the base is b

If the base is b, then the height is...

h = (1/2)b + 8

h = (1/2)(8) + 8

h = 4 + 8

h = 12

determine whether the lines intersect and if so find the point of intersection and the cosine of the angle of intersection x=4t+

Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

As the lines are not intersecting nor parallel, they must be skew.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question is incomplete, we consider the nearest match available online.

Parametric equations of two lines are:

L₁ : x=4t+2 , y = 3 , z =-t+1

L₂: x=2s+2 , y= 2s+5 , z = s+1

If lines are parallel then parametric coordinates must be equal scalar multiple of each other which s not true here.

$4t+2=2s+2 ---(1)\\ \\3=2s+5---(2) \\\\-t+1=s+1---(3)$

If lines are intersecting then parametric coordinates must be equal for some value of t and s.

$From (3)\\-t=s\\From (2)\\\\s=\frac{3-5}{2}\\\\s=-1\\\implies t=1\\\\To\,\,check\,\, the \,\,values \,\,of \,\,s\,\, and \,\,t \,\,for\,\,intersection\,\,put \,\,them\,\, in\,\, (1)\\\\4(1)+2= 2(-1)+2\\ 6\ne0$

Hence the lines are not intersecting nor parallel, they must be skew.
