Explain why the intercepts, on their own, cannot be used to graph the relation 5x+9y= 0.

5x + 9y = 0

to find the x int, sub in 0 for y and solve for x
5x + 9(0) = 0
5x = 0
x = 0

to find the y int, sub in 0 for x and solve for y
5(0) + 9y = 0
9y = 0
y = 0

the reason u cannot use just the intercepts is because the line goes through the origin (0,0)....The intercepts coincide giving u only 1 point...and that is not enough to graph a line

The pharmacist uses 67mg, 100g and 0.6 kg of drug to compound 3 separate precription. how much total drug did the pharmacist use

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer: 700.067 g

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The pharmacist uses 67mg, 100g and 0.6 kg of drug to compound 3 separate prescription.

We know that 1 gram= 1000 milligram

and 1 kilogram = 1000 grams

Then, By UNITARY METHOD, $\text{1 mg}=\dfrac{1}{1000}\text{ gram}$

Now, We convert each amount of drug into grams as ,

$67\ mg=67\times\dfrac{1}{1000}\ g\\\\=0.067\text{ g}$

AND

$0.6\ kg=0.6\times100=60\text{ g}$

Now, the total drug used by Pharmacist (in grams) = $0.067+100+600=700.067\ g$

Hence, Pharmacist used 700.067 g of total drug.
