Solving for variables in equations is important for many reasons.  Of course, it's important to be able to solve for them so you can pass math tests.  But even more so, it's important for real-life applications.  There are many uses for solving equations.  They can provide answers for mathematicians, accountants, insurance companies- you name it!  There are way too many to list!  It may not seem important now, but just keep working at it!  I personally think solving equations is a ton of fun!

which of the following gives an equation of a line that passes through the point (6 over 5, -19 over 5) and is parallel to the l
victus00 [196]
One equation for this would be

y = \frac{41}{16} x-\frac{55}{8}

We start by finding the slope between the two points:

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{-12-\frac{-19}{5}}{-2-\frac{6}{5}}
\\
\\=(-12+\frac{19}{5}) \div (-2-\frac{6}{5})
\\
\\=(\frac{-60}{5}+\frac{19}{5}) \div (\frac{-10}{5}-\frac{6}{5})
\\
\\=\frac{-41}{5} \div \frac{-16}{5}=\frac{-41}{5} \times \frac{-5}{16}=\frac{41}{16}

A line parallel to this one will have the same slope.  We will use point-slope form to write our equation:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
\\
\\y-\frac{-19}{5}=\frac{41}{16}(x-\frac{6}{5})
\\
\\y+\frac{19}{5}=\frac{41}{16}x- \frac{41}{16} \times \frac{6}{5}
\\
\\y+\frac{19}{5}=\frac{41}{16}x-\frac{246}{80}
\\
\\y+\frac{304}{80}=\frac{41}{16}x-\frac{246}{80}
\\
\\y=\frac{41}{16}x-\frac{246}{80}-\frac{304}{80}
\\
\\y=\frac{41}{16}x-\frac{550}{80}
\\
\\y=\frac{41}{16}x-\frac{55}{8}

PLZ HELP ME IDK WUT IT IS!
Simora [160]

Answer:

1.  c. 628 cubic cm

2.  c. 502 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

V=\pi r^{2} h\\

1.)  3.14 x 5^2 x 8

3.14 x 25 x 8 = 628

2.)  3.14 x ( 8/2 )^2 x 10

3.14 x 4^2 x 10

3.14 x 16 x 10 = 502.4

A pottery studio receives 48 bags of clay. Each bag weighs 25 pounds. It takes 5 pounds of clay to make 1 bowl.
bogdanovich [222]

The answer is 240 bowls of clay

First you need to get the total weight, 48*25=1200

Then you need to divide by 5, since thats the nessacary weight, 1200/5 = 240
