The answer to question 34:
Let 'x' = pounds of gravel. The ratio of mulch to gravel is given 2 1/4 | 1 1/3. Which equals 9/4 | 4/3 = 27/16.
So the total gravel and much is equal to x + 27/16x = 172
Solving for 'x'
43/16 x = 172
x = 172 (16/43) = 64 pounds of gravel Mulch = 27/16x = 64 (27/16)= 108 pounds
The answer to question 35:
A.) 1,080 beats per minute at rest and 1,500 beats per minute while running.
B.) 4,500 (while running) - 3,240 (at rest) = 1,260 more beats while running than at rest.
There are 2 flutes and 1 drum. What is the ratio?
Answer:
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Moving from (1,6) to (4, -2) involves an increase of 3 in x and a decrease of 8 in y. Thus, the slope of the line thru these two points is m = rise / run = -8/3.
Using the slope-intercept form of the eq'n of a straight line and inserting the data given (slope = m = -8/3, x = 4, y = -2), we get:
y = mx + b => -2 = (-8/3)(4) + b, or -2 = -32/3 + b
Multiply all terms by 3 to clear out the fraction:
-6 = -32 + 3b.
Then 26 = 3b, and b = 26/3.
The desired equation is y = (-8/3)x + 26/3.
