For the lowest term it would be 5/12= 0.4166

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the graph of y = 2x - 5 and passes through the point (8, 10)?

Kruka [31]

We know that the equation of a line is given by

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

To find it we need the slope m and a point that the line passes thorugh. In this case we have the point (8,10) but we don't know the slope. What we know is that the line we are looking for is parallel to the line

$y=2x-5$

We also know that for two lines to be parallel they have the same slope. Then, if we fin the slope of the line y=2x-5, we have the slope of the line we are looking for. To find the slope of the line y=2x-5 we note that it is written in the slope-intercept form

$y=mx+b$

From this we know that the slope is multiplying the x variable when it is written in that form. Hence m=2.

Then the line we are looking for has an slope of 2 and passes through the point (8,10). Pluggin the values in the equation of a line we have.

$y-10=2(x-8)$

Writting it in the slope intercept form we have

$\begin{gathered} y-10=2(x-8) \\ y-10=2x-16 \\ y=2x-16+10 \\ y=2x-6 \end{gathered}$

Then the line parallel to y=2x-5 and passes through the point (8,10) is

$y=2x-6$

Reduce to simplest form.

BigorU [14]

Convert 3 6/2 to an improper fraction so: 12/2
convert 2 4/5 to 14/5
multiply the numerators of the improper fractions so 12*14, which is 168.
multiple the denominators so 2*5, which is 10.
the new fraction is 168/10, so you divide 168 divided by 10, which is 16.8, or 16 4/5.

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

0 < x ≤ 100 and 0 < y ≤ 300

Step-by-step explanation:

THIS IS THE COMPLETE QUESTION BELOW;

college is currently accepting students that are both in-state and out-of-state. They plan to accept three times as many in-state students as out-of-state, and they only have space to accept 100 out-of-state students. Let x = the number of out-of-state students and y = the number in-state students. Write the constraints to represent the incoming students at the college.

0 < x ≤ 100 and 0 < y ≤ 300

x > 0 and y > 0

0 < x ≤ 100 and y > 300

0 < x and y < 100

SOLUTION

they only have space to accept 100 out-of-state students,which means that the Maximum number of out-of-state students that can be accepted is 100

Then x= 100(Maximum number of out-of-state students that can be accepted)

They plan to accept three times as many in-state students as out-of-state which means that

Y = 3x(Maximum number of in-state students)

Then we can deduced that the numbee out-of-state students that can be accepted can lyes between the range of 0 and 100 which means from interval 0 to 100

Which can be written as 0 < x ≤ 100

But we need to know the interval for the Maximum number of in-state students(Y), to do that we need to multiply the equation above by 3 since Y = 3x

0 < x ≤ 100

3× 0 = 0

3× X = X

3× 100= 300

Then 0 < 3x≤ 300

But we know that Y = 3x then substitute into last equation

We have

0 < y ≤ 300

ThenBthe constraints to represent the incoming students at the college is

0 < x ≤ 100 and 0 < y ≤ 300

Answer:

236 kcal

Step-by-step explanation:

(50 g protein)(4 kcal/(g protein)) +(4 g fat)(9 kcal/(g fat)) = (200 +36) kcal

= 236 kcal
