Answer:

y= -2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line is usually written in the form of y=mx+c, where m is the gradient and c is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope is -2, m= -2.

subst. m= -2 into the equation:

y= -2x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a coordinate.

When x= -4, y=8,

8= -2(-4) +c

8= 8 +c (expand)

c= 8-8 (-8 on both sides)

c=0 (simplify)

Thus, the equation of the line is y= -2x.

Given :

An alloy is a mixture of metals. Suppose that a certain alloy is made by mixing 50 g of an alloy containing 12% copper with 78 g of an alloy containing 92% copper.

To Find :

How many grams of copper are in the resulting mixture what percentage of the resulting mixture is copper.

Solution :

Mass of copper in 50 gm alloy = 50\times 0.12 = 6\ gram.

Mass of copper in 78 gm alloy = 78\times 0.98 = 76.44\ gram.

Total mass of copper, ( 6 + 76.44 ) gm = 82.44 gram.

Percentage of copper in resulting mixture :

\%=\dfrac{82.44}{50+78}\\\\\%=64.4\ \%

Hence, this is the required solution.

True or False The image of a translation is always congruent to the pre-image.
posledela
True. The image of a translation is always congruent to the pre-image.

Proof: every point of the pre-image is move exactly the same distance and the same direction. That means that the shape stay the same but it is just located in a different place.

Hope this helps :)
