Answer:


First we calculate the slope (which is called "m".


Slope = m = (Y2 -Y1) ÷ (X2 -X1)


m = (-8 -1) / (5 -2) = -9 / 3 = -3


We next fill in this equation: b = y -mx


We know m = -3 and we can choose a point (2, 1) to calculate "b"


b = 1 --3 * 2 b = 7


Putting this into y = mx +b


y = -3x +7

0.45x + 0.60(40-x) = 0.48*40
----------------
45x + 60*40 - 60x = 48*40

--------
-15x = -12*40
x = (4/5)40
x = 32 lbs (amt of 45% slloy needed)
40-x = 8 lbs (amt of 60% alloy needed)</span>

Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

Answer Below

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle the area is calculated using the formula: Area = half of base by altitude. A = 0.5 X b X a.

So to calculate the volume of a triangular prism, the formula is: V = 0.5 X b X a X h.

You can also search "how to find the volume of a triangular prism" and there will be a base calculator so u can figure out this problem!

(x + 5)2 + (y - 7)2 = 36, its radius is
sashaice [31]
6 because the 36 is r² where r is the radius, r² = 36; we have to isolate the r so it's by its self, so square root both sides, r = 6
