Answer:
It's the first choice y = (-5/2)x - 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the slope of the line 5x + 2y = 12 by converting to slope-intercept form.
5x + 2y = 12
2y = -5x + 12
y = (-5/2)x + 6 so the slope is (-5/2).
The line we require had also a slope of -5/2 because it is parallel to the first line and it also passes through the point (-2, 4). So:
y - 4 = (-5/2)(x - -2) (the point-slope form)
y - 4 = (-5/2)(x + 2)
y = (-5/2)x - 5 + 4
y = (-5/2)x - 1 (answer)
-2, 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22
Answer:
Not on a coordinate plane
Step-by-step explanation:
We must use absolute value because lengths should always be positive you cannot have a negative length or distance.
Linda should use ...
15 gallons of 80% juice
5 gallons of 60% juice
_____
Let g represent the number of gallons of 80% juice needed. Then (20-g) is the number of gallons of 60% juice Linda will use. The amount of juice in the mixture can be written as
0.80g +0.60(20 -g) = 0.75×20
0.20g = 20(0.75 -0.60) = 20×0.15
g = 20×0.15/0.20 = 15
The amount of 80% juice needed is 15 gallons, so 5 gallons of 60% juice are needed.
