What is the slope of the points (-1,6) and (2,-3)

A pharmacist wants to mix a 30% saline solution with a 10% saline solution to get 200 mL of a 12% saline solution. How much of e

Bess [88]

Answer:

30% constituents=20 mL

10% constituents=180 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

x= 30% volume

y=10% volume

For our first equation, we know the total volume is 200 mL and is the sum

x+y=200

y=200-x (1)

For our second equation, we do a mass balance for 200 mL of final solution.

12% w/v = 0.12 g/mL

This means that in 1 mL of solution, we have 0.12 g of NaCl.

For any solution, concentration multiplied by volume will give the mass of NaCl:

Mass in x mL= C*V (g/mL) (mL)

So in 200 mL, we have

0.12*200 (g/mL) (mL)

=24g of NaCl

Cx*Vx + Cy*Vy=24

0.3x+0.1y=24 (2)

Substitute y=200-x into (2)

0.3x+0.1(200-x)=24

0.3x+20-0.1x=24

0.2x=24-20

0.2x=4

Divide both sides by 0.2

0.2x/0.2=4/0.2

x=20

Substitute x=20 into (1)

y=200-x

y=200-20

y=180

30% constituents=20 mL

10% constituents=180 mL

Is the product of two imaginary numbers always imaginary?

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

No. i*i = -1

2i*3i=-6

now if they meant complex numbers the answer is still no

(2+4i)(2-4i) = 4-8i+8i-16 = -12

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 12, negative 2) and (0, negative 4). A point is at (0, 6).

mariarad [96]

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line ⇒ 1st

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have:

Same slopes
Different y-intercepts

The formula of the slope of a line which passes through points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{1},y_{1})$ is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

∵ The given line passes through points (-12 , -2) and (0 , -4)

∴ $x_{1}$ = -12 , $x_{2}$ = 0

∴ $y_{1}$ = -2 , $y_{2}$ = -4

- Use the formula of the slope above to find the slope of the given line

∵ $m=\frac{-4-(-2)}{0-(-12)}=\frac{-4+2}{12}=\frac{-2}{12}=\frac{-1}{6}$

∴ The slope of the given line is $\frac{-1}{6}$

∵ The two lines are parallel

∴ Their slopes are equal

∴ The slope of the parallel line = $\frac{-1}{6}$

∵ The parallel line passes through point (0 , 6)

- The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope

and b is the y-intercept (y when x = 0)

∵ m = $\frac{-1}{6}$ and b = 6

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = $\frac{-1}{6}$ x + 6

Let us check which point is on the line by substitute the x in the equation by the x-coordinate of each point to find y, if y is equal the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the line

Point (-12 , 8)

∵ x = -12 and y = 8

∵ y = $\frac{-1}{6}$ (-12) + 6

∴ y = 2 + 6 = 8

- The value of y is equal the y-coordinate of the point

∴ Point (-12 , 8) is on the line

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line
