Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Parallel lines have the same slope. The slope of the given line is 3. The easy way to do this, the one that uses our logical brains as opposed to our mathematical brain, tells us that since there is only one choice that has a given slope of 3, that is the one that we want. The second choice down is the only one that has a slope of 3.
Mathematically,
and
and
so
y = 3x - 7 (the second choice)
Answer:
80 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let W₁ be the initial weight of water in the grapefruit, W₂ be the weight of water in the grapefruit after evaporation, and M be the total weight of the grapefruit after evaporation. Assuming that, originally, the grapefruit weighed 100 pounds with a 92% water content and the weight of the "non-water" part of the fruit (100 - W₁) does not change. The final weight of the grapefruit (M) is given by:
The grapefruit now weighs 80 pounds.
