Answer: 200 bulbs will not be defective.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of defective bulbs to good bulbs produced each day is 2 to 10. This ratio can also be expressed as 1 to 5 by reducing to lowest terms.

The total ratio is the sum of the proportions.

Total ratio = 1 + 5 = 6

This means that if n bulbs is produced, the number of defective bulbs would be

1/6 × n

The number of non defective would be

5/6 × n

Since n = 240, then the number of bulbs that will not be defective is

5/6 × 240 = 200 bulbs

Answer:

  • No, there is no proportional relationship

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The proportional relationship is:</u>

  • y = kx, which is a special form of linear equation, with zero y-intercept

<u>In the given case we have:</u>

  • y = 4.5x + 10

This is a linear function but not proportional relationship because it has y-intercept, different than zero

Determine the discount between the point(-4,2) and the line 4y=3×+6​
frozen [14]

Answer:

d = 14/5

Step-by-step explanation:

The point (-4,2) means that;

At x = -4, y = 2

Now general form of a linear equation is;

Ax + By + C = 0

We are given;

4y = 3x + 6​

Rearranging to the form of a linear equation gives;

3x - 4y + 6 = 0

Thus, A = 3, B = -4 and C = 6

Thus, at point (-4,2), distance between them is;

d = (3(-4) - 4(2) + 6)/√(3² + (-4)²)

d = -14/5

We will take the absolute value.

Thus; d = 14/5

Which statement is true about the equations –3x + 4y = 12 and x – y = 1?
Firlakuza [10]
-3x + 4y = 12
x - y = 1....x = y + 1

-3(y + 1) + 4y = 12
-3y - 3 + 4y = 12
-3y + 4y = 12 + 3
y = 15

x - y = 1
x - 15 = 1
x = 1 + 15
x = 16

one solution (16,15)
