Answer:

48 cups of orange juice,  24 containers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Jackie used 5 times as much water as concentrate to make orange juice.

There were 32 more cups of water than concentrate.

Question asked:

How much juice did she make in all ?

She poured the juice in 2 quart containers how many containers could she fill ?

Solution:

Let concentrate used in the juice = x

<u>As Jackie used 5 times as much water as concentrate:</u>

Then water  used in the juice = 5x

<u>According to question:</u>

<u>To make orange juice 32 more cups of water used than concentrate is equals to to make orange juice</u>, Jackie used 5 times as much water as concentrate, we will write this as:-

x+5x=x+x+32\\6x=2x+32\\

Subtracting both sides by 2x

4x=32\\

Dividing both sides by 4

x=8

Concentrate used in the juice = x = 8 cups

Water  used in the juice = 5x = 5\times8=40\ cups

Total quantity of juice =8 + 40 = 48 cups

Thus, she made 48 cups of orange juice for her basketball team.

Now, as she poured the juice in 2 quart containers, we have to find number of containers could be filled, we will simply divide total quantity of juice by 2 quart

Number of 2 quart containers = 48 cups \div 2 = 24 containers

Thus, she can fill 24 containers.

Theequationforlinegcanbewrittenas y = –9 4 x − 1 . Line h , whichisperpendiculartoline g , includesthepoint (10, 4) . What isthe
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

y-4 = 4/9(x-10)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation of the line g to be y = -9/4 x - 1.

To find the equation of a line h perpendicular to this line, the following steps must be taken;

First find the slope of the known line g

The standard equation of a line is y = mx+c where

m is the slope

c is the intercept

Comparing this equation with the given equation y = -9/4 x -1, it can be seen that the slope of the line g is -9/4

Next is to find the slope of the line h

Since the line g is perpendicular to h, then the product of their slope will be -1 i.e mh*mg = -1

mh = -1.mg

mh = -1/(-9/4)

mh = -1*-4/9

mh = 4/9

Hence the slope of the line h is 4/9

Find the intercept of line h

To get this, you will substitute the slope m and the point into the equation y = mx+c

m = 4/9

(x,y) = (10,4)

4 = 4/9(10) + c

4 = 40/9 + c

c = 4-40/9

c = (36-40)/9

c = -4/9

Hence the intercept of the line h is -4/9

Finally, find the equation of the line h in slope-intercept form

The slope-intercept form of a line is expressed as y = mx+c

y-y0 = m(x-x0)

Given

m = -4/9

x0 = 10

y0 = 4

Substitute:

y-4 = 4/9(x-10)

Hence the equation in slope-intercept form is y-4 = 4/9(x-10)

Darya [45]
Emily can afford to spend her money in a variety of ways: She can buy all $4 stones, she can buy all $6 stones, or she can purchase a combination. If she buys all $4 stones she can buy 7. If she buys all $6 stones she can buy 5. On the other hand with the combination method: She can buy 6 $4 and 1 $6.

Ben bowled 124 and 188 in his first two games. What must he bowl in his third game to have an average of at least 160​?
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

x ≥ 168

Step-by-step explanation:

(124 + 188 + x) / 3 ≥ 160 =>  312 + x ≥ 480 => x ≥ 480 - 312 ≥ 168

x ≥ 168

God with you!!!

URGENT NEED HELP WITH A MATH QUESTION
irakobra [83]

Answer:

The image of point P is (1 , -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° anti-clock wise

∴ Its image is (-y , x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° clock wise

∴ Its image is (y , -x)

- If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 180°

∴ Its image is (-x , -y)

* There is no difference between rotating 180° clockwise or  

  anti-clockwise around the origin

* Lets solve the problem

∵ P = (-1 , -1)

∵ P is rotated about the origin 90° counterclockwise

- Lets use this rule:

  If point (x , y) rotated about the origin by angle 90° counterclockwise

  then Its image is (-y , x)

∵ x-coordinate of point P = -1

∴ y-coordinate of the image of point P is -1

∵ y-coordinate of point P is -1

∴ x-coordinate of the image of point P is 1

- Lets write the image of point P

∴ The image of point P is (1 , -1)
