Answer:
y = -140
Step-by-step explanation:
Y varies directly with x
y = kx
We know y = -20 when x =2, we can solve for k
-20 = k*2
Divide each side by 2
-20/2= 2k/2
-10 =k
y = -10x
Now we want to find y when x = 14
y = -10 *14
y = -140
This solution to this problem is predicated on the fact that the circumference is just: 
. A straight line going through the center of the garden would actually be the diameter, which is well known to be two times the radius of the circle, so we can say that the circumference is just:
So, solving for both the radius and the diameter gives us:
So, the length of thes traight path that goes through the center of the guardain is just 
, and we can use the radius for the next part of the problem.
The area of a circle is 
, which means we can just plug in the radius and find our area:
So, we have found our area(
) and the problem is done.
Answer:
y = x - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Use point slope form: (y - y1) = m(x - x1)</u>
m = 1
<u>Step 1: Plug in</u>
(y - (-3)) = 1(x - 1)
y + 3 - 3 = x - 1 - 3
y = x - 4
Answer: y = x - 4
Answer:
16 pieces of spearmint gum
Step-by-step explanation:
For every five pieces of peppermint gum, there are 2 pieces of spearmint gum.
First, divide the total number of peppermint gum by 5:
40/5 = 8
Multiply this number by 2 (pieces of spearmint) to get the number of spearmint gum pieces:
8 x 2 = 16
Proof:
Ratio is 40 : 16, dividing this by 8 will reduce the ratio to 5:2
