Answer:

12 blueberries and 4 strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

We can try the guess method.

3:1      3 + 1 = 4     4 is too low. We need a sum of 16.

Multiply both numbers in the ratio by 2.

6:2     6 + 2 = 8   8 is still too low

Multiply both numbers in the ratio by 4.

12:4    12 + 4 = 16    16 is correct.

Answer: 12 blueberries and 4 strawberries

Answer:

m = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>If two lines are parallel, their slopes are equal. </u>

The slope of x - axis is 0

(why?)

because, slope of a line is given by

\boxed{\mathsf{slope\:of\:a\:line=tan \theta}}

Θ is the angle made by the line with the x- axis.

Here, the line in question is the x- axis itself, and every line makes an angle of 0° with itself.

=> Θ = 0

=> tan Θ = 0

=> slope = 0

and the line in blue is parallel to the X- axis, therefore, it's slope is also 0

(also, a line makes an angle of 0° with the line it's parallel to)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

slopes and equations:

find the  equation thur ( 6,1 )  and (-2,-3)

find the slope m

m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1 )

m = (-3 - 1) / (-2 -6)

m = -4 / -8

m = 1/2

now use the point-slope formula with our known slope

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-1 = 1/2(x-6)

y - 1 = 1/2x -3

y = 1/2x -3 +1

y = \frac{1}{2}x -2

Find the equation parallel to y = 3x + 6 and thur (0,1)

Parallel means the same slope, the slope is 3 for the equation above.

use the slope-intercept formula again with the point given and the slope 3

y-1 = 3(x -0)

y - 1 = 3x

y = 3x +1

Find the equations perpendicular to 2x + y = 8 and the same y intercept as  4y = x + 3.

put both equations into proper form

y = -2x +6

y = \frac{1}{4}x + \frac{3}{4}

perpendicular means  reciprocal slope and change the sign, the 2nd equation has an intercept of  \frac{3}{4} , so

y = 1/2x + \frac{3}{4}

there you go Amanda  :)
