Answer:

Sum = 63

$\boxed{ x = 36}$

Step-by-step explanation:

3 : 4

It says that the 1st part (3) is 27

27 : x (We've to find the major)

Creating a proportion:

=> 3 : 4 = 27 : x

Product of Means = Product of Extremes

=> 3 * x = 27 * 4

=> 3x = 108

Dividing both sides by 3

=> x = 36

The sum of both is 27+36 = 63

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must find the missing number, for that we apply a simple rule of three:

3. 4

27 ------ x

x = 27 (4) / 3 = 36

Now we just do the sum:

27 + 36 = 63

one mile is about 1.61 kilometers. volcano Mauna Kea is 120 kilometers wide. what is the width of the volcano in miles, rounded

mezya [45]

$\frac{1}{1.61} = \frac{x}{120} \\ \\ 1*120=1.61*x \\ \\ 120=1.61x \\ \\ 74.5=x$

74.5 miles

I need help To find gradient and y-intercept...

suter [353]

Answer:

a) the gradient of the linear graph is: $\mathbf{\frac{-1}{3} }$

b) the y-intercept of linear graph is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Find the gradient of the linear graph.

The formula used to find gradient is same as slope

$Gradient=\frac{Change \ in \ y \ coordinate}{Change \ in \ x \ coordinate}\\or\\Gradient=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Take any 2 points from the graph.

I will take: (-3,0) and (0,-1)

Putting values in formula and finding gradient

$Gradient=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1} \\Gradient=\frac{-1-0}{0-(-3)} \\Gradient=\frac{-1}{3}$

So, the gradient of the linear graph is: $\mathbf{\frac{-1}{3} }$

b) Find the y-intercept of linear graph

The y-intercept of linear graph is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.

So, in the given graph, that point is -1

So, the y-intercept of linear graph is -1
