 <span>The answer is 167 milliliters of 7% solution and 333 milliliters of 4% solution x + y = 500 x = 500 - y 0.07x + 0.04y = 25 (substitute 500 - y for x) 0.07(500 - y) + 0.04y = 25 35 - 0.07y + 0.04y = 25 -0.03y + 35 = 25 -0.03y = -10 y = 333.333... y [ = about 333 x = 500 - y = 500 - 333 = 167 hope it helps </span>

the stairway to a cellar has a slope of -4/3, and the cellar is 2m below the ground. the equation y=-4/3x-2 models the stairway.
8_murik_8 [283]

Shown below

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The stairway to a cellar has a slope of -4/3, that is:

m=-\frac{4}{3}

On the other hand, the cellar is 2m below the ground. In other words:

y-intercept: \\ \\ b=-2

So this can be modeled by the equation of the line:

y=-\frac{4}{3}x-2

The line has a y-intercept at point (0, -2) and as x increases 3 units y decreases 4 units. So:

x=3 \\ \\ y=-\frac{4}{3}(3)-2=-6 \\ \\ (3,-6) \ is \ also \ a \ point \ on \ the \ line

Finally, let's draw a line that passes through:

(0,-2) \ and \ (3,-6)

By using graphing tool, we get the line shown below.

A coat was originally priced at $60. It went on sale for $30. What was the percent that the coat was discounted?
Umnica [9.8K]
50%. 60/2=30 or 60*.5=30. Dividing by two or multiplying by .5 are the same as taking 50%, meaning that there was a 50% discount
