To find the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away, you need to know how much she gave the son.  Because the ratio of the money given is 5:6, the amount of money he received has to be 5/6 of the money the daughter received.

So, the son received 5/6 of 2400.
To find this, multiply 5/6 x 2400 to get 2000.

The daughter received 2400 and the son received 2000, so the total amount Mrs. Johnson gave away is 4400 dollars.

Graph the system below and write its solution.
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

See the graph attached. It has one solution: (6,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of a line is:

y=mx+b

Where m is the slope and b is the intersection of the line with the y-axis.

Given the first equation  y =\frac{-1}{2}x -1

You can identify that:

b=-1

Substitute y=0 to find the intersection with the x-axis

0 =\frac{-1}{2}x -1\\1(-2)=x\\x=-2

This line passes through the points (0,-1) and (-2,0)

Given the second equation:

-2 + y = -6

Solve for y:

y = -6+2\\y=-4

It passes through the point (0,-4).

Now, you can graph. See the figure attached.

It has one solution,which is the point of intersection of both lines:  (6,-4)

Pls help me this is a huge packet
Darina [25.2K]

Is there only choices A and B?

From the choices I can see you don’t even have to do any work. The equation starts with (y =). This indicates you will be working with the y intercept. The y intercept is simply where the line crosses on the y axis. In this graph, the y intercept is 2.5. Out of your choices (A and B that I can see) only one contains + 2.5.

B is your answer UNLESS there are choices c and d that are cut out.

Please help<br> Geometry <br> Will give top answer for someone to answer correctly.
Setler79 [48]

Answer:

Length of the minor arc AB = 5.27777777778 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here you would require a simple proportionality.

The ratio of the degree of the minor arc (95 degrees) over the total, 360 degrees of every circle, comparative to the length of the minor over the circumference (20 cm).

Here we can propose that the length of the minor can be equal to x.

Now let's substitute the known values:

95 / 360 = x / 20

Now cross multiply:

360 * x = 95 * 20 ⇒

360x = 1900 ⇒

x = 5.27777777778 ⇒

length of the minor arc AB = 5.27777777778 cm

The ratio of Ed's toy cars to Pete's toy cars was initially 5:2. After Ed gave 30 toy cars to Pete, they each had an equal numbe
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

140 toy cars

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Ed's toy car to Pete's toy car is initially given as 5:2

Ed gave Pete a total number of 30 cars

Let x represent the greatest common factor that exists between both number

Number of Ed's car is represented as 5x

Number of Pete car is represented as 2x

Since they each have an equal number of cars which is 30 then we can solve for x as follows

5x-30=2x+30

Collect the like terms

5x-2x= 30+30

3x= 60

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 3

3x/3=60/3

x=20

Ed's car is 5x, we substitute 20 for x

5(20)

= 100 cars

Pete car is 2x,we substitute 20 for x

2(20)

= 40 cars

Therefore, the total number of cars can be calculated as follows

= 100+40

= 140 toy cars

Hence they have 140 toy cars altogether
