because 140 divided by 10 equals 14
Make sure the question is stated clearly
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
if the ratio is 8:11 then 40:x
Cross multiply
8 40
11 x
8x=440
And divide by 8
x=55. She has 55 books

Step-by-step explanation:
D > 0; f >0
Plant A : 10d+5f >100
Plant B: 5d +15f >800
Cost:
C(x,y)+30D+35F
I would think that all but one point would be on the line. One way to approach this problem is to find the equation of the line based upon any two points chosen at random, and then determine whether or not the other points satisfy this equation. Next time, would you please enclose the coordinates of each point inside parentheses: (2.5,14), (2.25,12), and so on, to avoid confusion.
14-12
slope of line thru 1st 2 points is m = ---------------- = 2/0.25 = 8
2.50-2.25
What is the eqn of the line: y = mx + b becomes
14 = (8)(2.5) + b; find b:
14-20 = b = -6. Then, y = 8x - 6.
Now determine whether (12,1.25) lies on this line.
Is 1.25 = 8(12) - 6? Is 1.25 = 90? No. So, unless I've made arithmetic mistakes, (1.25, 5) does not lie on the line thru (2.5,14) and (2.25,12).
Why not work this problem out yourself using my approach as a guide?
