Each point should satisfy the equation of the line it belongs to.

This means that:

for the equation of the first line (y=x+b), the point (p,r) satisfies this equation, thus: r = p + b .......> equation I

for the equation of the second line (y=2x+b), the point (2p,5r) satisfies this equation, thus: 5r = 4p + b .........> equation II

Subtract equation I from equation II to eliminate the constant b:

5r-r = 4p+b-p-b

4r = 3p

Thus, r/p = 3/4

Jeff is baking a cake. The recipe says that he has to mix 32 grams of vanilla powder to the flour. Jeff knows that 1 cup of that

Lady bird [3.3K]

The situation above described that Jeff added two - thirds of 128 to the flour. The numerical value of (2/3)(128) is 85.33 grams. The recipe says to add only 32 grams of vanilla flour.

Hence, Jeff went over the prescribed amount.

To determine the excess amount, subtract 32 from 85.33 which has a numerical value of 53.33 grams.

A necklace has and matching bracelet have two types of beads. The necklace has 12 large beads and 8 small beads and weighs 88 gr

miv72 [106K]

Weight of one large bead is 1.5 grams and weight of one small bead is 8.75 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Weight of one large bead = x

Weight of one small bead = y

According to given statement;

12x+8y=88 Eqn 1

5x+2y=25 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 2 by 4

$4(5x+2y=25)\\20x+8y=100\ \ \ Eqn\ 3\\$

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 3

$(20x+8y)-(12x+8y)=100-88\\20x+8y-12x-8y=12\\8x=12$

Dividing both sides by 8

$\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{12}{8}\\x=1.5$

Putting x=1.5 in Eqn 1

$12(1.5)+8y=88\\18+8y=88\\8y=88-18\\8y=70$

Dividing both sides by 8

$\frac{8y}{8}=\frac{70}{8}\\y=8.75$

Weight of one large bead is 1.5 grams and weight of one small bead is 8.75 grams.

Zolol [24]

Answer: The correct answer is (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X = the amount of waste produced in a given day. X follows a distribution that is approximately Normal with a mean of 348.5 pounds and a standard deviation of 38.2 pounds.

P(X > 350) = Normalcdf(lower: 350, upper: 1000, mean: 348.5, SD: 38.2) = 0.484.
