The mass of b equals the mass of d so
24(10-x)=6(x+15)
240-24x=6x+90
30x=150
x=5
mass of d is 6(5+15)=6*20=120
mass of c=180-mas of d=180-120=60°

Find the value of y if the line through the two given points is to have the indicated slope.

Masteriza [31]

Slope is the change in y/ change in x so the equation will be:
-2= (1-y)/(-6-(-5)) -> simplify -> -2= 1-y/-1 -> multiply both sides by -1 -> 2=1-y -> simplify and -y= 1 -> y=-1

The price of a cup coffee was 2.40 yesterday. Today, the price fell to 2.15 find the percentage decrease. Round the answer to th

irakobra [83]

ANSWER

The percentage decrease is 10.4%.

EXPLANATION

To calculate percentage decrease, use the formula,

Percentage decrease

$= \frac{new \: price - old \: price}{old \: price} \times 100\%$

Yesterday the price of coffee was 2.40. This is the old price.

Today the price is 2.15. This is the new price.

$= \frac{2.15 - 2.40}{2.40} \times 100\%$

$= \frac{ - 0.25}{2.40} \times 100\%$

$= - 0. 10416667 \times 100\%$

$= - 10.416667\%$

To the nearest tenth, we have:

$- 10.4\%$

Therefore the percentage decrease is 10.4%.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12.9 + 10.2x = 35.1

10.2x = 35.1 - 12.9

10.2x = 22.2

x = 22.2/10.2

x= 222/102 = 111/51

$x= 2\dfrac{9}{51}$
