What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the wine represented by the equation y=-2/5x+4/5?

Mathematics

Ulleksa [173]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

slope = - \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - \frac{2}{5} x + \frac{4}{5} ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - \frac{2}{5}

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

m = - \frac{2}{5} ← is slope of parallel line

Which of the following is the solution set of 18 - 3n + 2 = n + 20 - 4n?
exis [7]

The solution set of the equation is all reals ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution set of an function is the set of all vales make the equation true. The equation has:

  • Solution if the left hand side is equal to the right hand side
  • No solution if the left hand side doesn't equal the right hand side

∵ The equation is 18 - 3n + 2 = n + 20 - 4n

- Add the like terms in each side

∴ (18 + 2) - 3n = (n - 4n) + 20

∴ 20 - 3n = -3n + 20

- Add 3n to both sides

∴ 20 = 20

In the equation of one variable, when we solve it if the variable is disappeared from the two sides, and the two sides of the equations are equal, then the variable can be any real numbers, if the two sides are not equal, then the variable couldn't be any value

∵ The the variable n is disappeared

∵ The left hand side = the right hand side

∴ n can be any real number

∴ The solution set of the equation is all real numbers

The solution set of the equation is all reals

A car and a bus set out at 2 p.M. From the same point, headed in the same direction. The speed of the car is 30mph slower than t
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Car = 10 miles/hour

Bus = 20 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Here,

Let, the value of the speed of the bus = X

the value of the speed of the car = 2X - 30 (As the speed of the car is 30mph slower than twice)

According to the question,

2X - 20 = 2*(2x-30)

or, 2X - 20 = 4X-60

or, 2X = 40

x = 20

Therefore, the speed of the bus, x = 20 miles/hour

So, the speed of the car is (2*20-30) mph = (40 - 30) mph = 10 miles/hour.

1. Stephanie would like to make a 5 lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds. She has several pounds of peanuts and se
Crazy boy [7]
Answers:

(a) p + m = 5
     0.8m = 2

(b) 2.5 lb peanuts and 2.5 lb mixture

Explanations:

(a) Note that we just need to mix the following to get the desired mixture:

     - peanut (p) - peanuts whose amount is p
     - mixture (m) - mixture (80% almonds and 20% peanuts) that has an amount of m; we denote this as

By mixing the peanuts (p) and the mixture (m), we combine their weights and equate it 5 since the mixture has a total of 5 lb.

Hence, 

p + m = 5

Note that the desired 5-lb mixture has 40% almonds. Thus, the amount of almonds in the desired mixture is 2 lb (40% of 5 lb, which is 0.4 multiplied by 5).

Moreover, since the mixture (m) has 80% almonds, the weight of almonds that mixture is 0.8m.

Since we mix mixture (m) with the pure peanut to get the desired mixture, the almonds in the desired mixture are also the almonds in the mixture (m). 
So, we can equate the amount of almonds in mixture (m) to the amount of almonds in the desired measure.

In terms mathematical equation,

0.8m = 2 

Hence, the system of equations that models the situation is 

p + m = 5
0.8m = 2

(b) To solve the system obtained in (a), we first label the equations for easy reference,

(1) p + m = 5
(2) 0.8m = 2

Note that using equation (2), we can solve the value of m by dividing both sides of (2) by 0.8. By doing this, we have

m = 2.5

Then, we substitute the value of m to equation (1) to solve for p:

p + m = 5
p + 2.5 = 5   (3)

To solve for p, we subtract both sides of equation (3) by 2.5. Thus,

p = 2.5

Hence, 

m = 2.5, p = 2.5

Therefore, the solution to the system is 2.5 lb peanuts and 2.5 lb mixture.
