Mathematics
1 answer:
irina [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Jill gets €18 Gary gets €45.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you add the two numbers of the ratio together. 2+5=7. Then you divide the constant, 63, by the total of the ratio, 7. 63/7=9. Then you multiply each number of the ratio by the quotient. 2 x 9= 18. 5 x 9= 45.

Which is the graph of the line LaTeX: y-2=3\left(x-1\right)y − 2 = 3 ( x − 1 )?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation given takes the point-slope form which is, y - b = m(x - a). Where,

(a, b) = (x, y) coordinates of a point on the line.

m = slope of the line .

To find which graph has a line equation of y - 2 = 3(x - 1), look for the points which will give you something almost exactly as the equation if you substitute their values into y - b = m(x - a).

Let's consider option D.

We have a given point (1, 2). a = 1, b = 2.

Substitute these into y - b = m(x - a)

We have:

y - (2) = m(x - (1))

y - 2 = m(x - 1)

As you can see, this looks almost exactly as

y - 2 = 3(x - 1).

If you want to be certain that option D is the answer, find m by using the coordinates of any other point on the line and plug into y - 2 = m(x - 1) to find m:

In graph D, let's take the points (0, -1)

-1 - 2 = m(0 - 1)

-3 = m(-1)

-3 = -m

Divide both sides by -1

3 = m

m = 3.

Therefore, option D is the graph of the line y - 2 = 3(x - 1).

To paint his room ted prepared 2 gallons of a paint mixture at a ratio of 3:1 white to blue. If he later decide to dilute the co
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

White = 1.67 gallons

Blue = 0.33 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

White : blue = 3 : 1

Total ratio = 3 + 1

= 4

Gallons = 2

White = 3 /4 × 2

= 6 /4

= 3/2 gallons

Blue = 1 / 4 × 2

= 2/4

= 1/2

If he later decide to dilute the color to a ratio of 5:1

Total ratio = 5 + 1

= 6

Total gallons = 2

White = 5 / 6 × 2

= 10/6

= 5/3 gallons

Or

= 1.67 gallons

Blue = 1 / 6 × 2

= 2 / 6

= 1/3 gallons

Or

= 0.33 gallons

A construction company showed that the strength, y, of concrete, measured
Vilka [71]

Answer:

  a) y-intercept = 17; initial design strength percentage

  b) slope = 2.8; increase in that percentage each day

  c) 29.6 days to 100% design strength

Step-by-step explanation:

a, b) The equation is in the form called "slope-intercept form."

  y = mx + b

where the slope is m, and the y-intercept is b.

Your equation has a slope of 2.8 and a y-intercept of 17.

The y-intercept is the percentage of design strength reached 0 days after the concrete is poured. The strength of the concrete when poured is 17% of its design strength.

The slope is the percentage of design strength added each day after the concrete is poured. The concrete increases its strength by 2.8% of its design strength each day after it is poured.

__

c) To find when 100% of design strength is reached, we need to solve for x:

  100 = 2.8x +17

  83 = 2.8x

  83/2.8 = x ≈ 29.6

The concrete will reach 100 percent of its design strength in about 30 days.

The midpoint of the line segment from P1 to P2 is (-6,5). If P1 = (-7,8), what is P2?
kipiarov [429]
You can determine midpoint by
x-midpoint = (x₁ + x₂)/2
y-midpoint = (y₁ + y₂)/2

Given from the question
x-midpoint = -6
x₁ = -7
y-midpoint = 5
y₁ = 8

Asked from the question
(x₂, y₂)

Solution
Find x₂, input the value of x₁ and x-midpoint to the formula
(x₁ + x₂)/2 = x-midpoint
(-7 + x₂)/2 = -6
-7 + x₂ = -6 × 2
-7 + x₂ = -12
x₂ = -12 + 7
x₂ = -5

Find y₂, input the value of y₁ and y-midpoint to the formula
(y₁ + y₂)/2 = 5
(8 + y₂)/2 = 5
8 + y₂ = 5 × 2
8 + y₂ = 10
y₂ = 10 - 8
y₂ = 2

Answer
P₂ = (-5,2)
