Tania bought 4 more pounds of pears than Wilma. Together, Tania and Wilma bought 18 pounds of pears.

1 answer:

3 0

If Tania bought 4 pounds more of pears then Wilma and together they bought 18 just divided 18 in half and you get 9. so first take 2 pounds from 9 and give 2 pounds to another 9. the one we took away equals 7 and the one we added equals 11 and 11 + 7 = 18 so Wilma bought 7 pounds of pears.

so your answer is 7 pounds of pears.

Answer:

50 questions x 10 points = 500 points

500 points x 2 years = 1000 points

365 days / 2 = 182 1/2 days

Using complete sentences, describe how you would check the quotient of two rational expressions. Create and demonstrate your own

Kamila [148]

To check the quotient of a division problem, I would multiply the quotient by the divisor and add the remainder. If the quotient is correct, the result will be the dividend.
example is below
x2−x−6/x−3=(x−3)(x+2)/x−3=x+2

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the given line and passes through the given point

Sati [7]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1\to x+4y=-4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\text{Let}\ k:y=m_1x+b_1;\ l:y=m_2x+b_2\\\\l\ ||\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\==========================\\\\\text{We have}\ x+4y=-6.\\\text{Convert to the slope-intercept form:}\\\\x+4y=-6\qquad\text{subtract}\ x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\4y=-x-6\qquad\text{divide both sides by 4}\\\\y=\dfrac{-x}{4}-\dfrac{6}{4}\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-\dfrac{3}{2}\to m_1=-\dfrac{1}{4}$

$\text{Lines are to be parallel. Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{4}.\\\\\text{We initially have the form equation}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x+b.\\\\\text{The line passes through the point}\ (9,\ -3).\\\\\text{Substitute the coordinates of the point to the equation of a line:}\\\\x=9,\ y=-3\\\\-3=-\dfrac{1}{4}(9)+b\\\\-3=-\dfrac{9}{4}+b\qquad\text{add}\ \dfrac{9}{4}\ \text{to both sides}\\\\-\dfrac{12}{4}+\dfrac{9}{4}=b\to b=-\dfrac{3}{4}$

$x=8,\ y=-3\\\\-3=-\dfrac{1}{4}(8)+b\\\\-3=-2+b\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\\-1=b\to b=-1$

$\text{Therefore the equation is:}\ y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1.\\\\\text{Convert to the standard form}\ Ax+By=C:\\\\y=-\dfrac{1}{4}x-1\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 4}\\\\4y=-x-4\qquad\text{add}\ x\ \text{to both sides}\\\\x+4y=-4$
