Find the slope and y-intercept of -x + 2y = 3. I need help on working this problem out​

Answer:

So the slope of this function is \frac{1}{2} and the y-intercept is \frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A first order function has the following format:

y = ax + b

In which a is the slope and b is the y-intercept, that is, the value of y when x = 0.

We have the following equation:

-x + 2y = 3

We just have to rewrite this equation

2y = x + 3

y = \frac{x+3}{2}

y = \frac{x}{2} + \frac{3}{2}

Which means that

a = \frac{1}{2}, b = \frac{3}{2}

So the slope of this function is \frac{1}{2} and the y-intercept is \frac{3}{2}

Is 9.99 rational or irrational
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Rational

Step-by-step explanation:

A rational number can be written as a fraction of the form.

\frac{a}{b}  \: where \: b \ne0

and a and b are integers.

9.99 =  \frac{999}{100}

Hence in this case a=999 and b=100.

Since both are integers with b being a non-zero integer, we conclude that 9.99 is a rational number.

A chemist has three different acid solutions. The first acid solution contains
ehidna [41]
Let t, f, and s be the amount of 25%, 40%, and 60% solutions used.

We are told s=3f.  The general equation is:

100(0.25t+0.4f+0.6s)/(t+s+f)=45, and using s=3f  we have:

(0.25t+0.4f+1.8f)/(t+4f)=0.45

(0.25t+2.2f)/(t+4f)=0.45

0.25t+2.2f=0.45t+1.8f  

0.25t+0.4f=0.45t

0.4f=0.2t

t=2f, remembering that s=3f, will allow us to solve for f

t+s+f=60, using t and s from above

2f+3f+f=60

6f=60

f=10 L then

s=3f=30 L  and t=2f=20L

So 20L of 25%, 10L of 40%, and 30L of 60% acid solutions need to be mixed to make 60L of 45% acid solution.
