The line 2x + 3y = -6 intersects the x axis at (a,0) and the y axis at (0,b) what is a + b ?

3 0
2x + 3y = -6 (Subtract 2x from both sides)
3y = -2x - 6 (Divide both sides by 3 to isolate x) which will give you y = -2/3x - 2 and this graphed would cross the x-axis at (-3,0) and the y-axis at (0, -2). So a + b = -5

A ship is carrying gold bars and silver bars in the ratio 13:17. The ship's load
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Using proportions, considering the weight of each bar and the ratio, it is found that the ship is carrying 52 gold bars.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

Each bar weighs 5 kg, and the total weight is of 600 kg, hence the number of bars is given by:

n = 600/5 = 120.

The proportion of gold bars is given by:

p = 13/(13 + 17) = 13/30

Hence, out of 120 bars, the number of gold bars is given by:

nG = 120 x 13/30 = 4 x 13 = 52.

For the diagram below, form an equation and then solve it to calculate the value of x
Talja [164]
You apply the sum of interior angles formula ie. (n-2)180. n=number of sides
since a pentagon has 5 sides it will be (5-2)180=540.
now add everything. x-5+x-6+2x-7+x+2x-2=540.
Solve for x: 7x-20=540
7x=540+20
7x=560
x=560/7
x=80
