<span>Equation:
silver + silver = silver
0.45x + 0.60(40-x) = 0.48*40
----------------
45x + 60*40 - 60x = 48*40

--------
-15x = -12*40
x = (4/5)40
x = 32 lbs (amt of 45% slloy needed)
40-x = 8 lbs (amt of 60% alloy needed)</span>

Graph the line that passes through the points (-4,-6) and (-2,-7) and
Komok [63]

Answer:

y=-\frac{1}{2}x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

(-4,-6)(-2,-7)

Step 1. Find the slope (by using the slope-formula)

m = slope

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{-7--6}{-2--4}

m=\frac{-1}{2}

m=-\frac{1}{2}

Step 2. Create the equation of a line that has a slope of -\frac{1}{2}

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

Step 3. Find the y-intercept

To do this, use any of the two points and substitute their x and y values

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

point: (-2,-7)

(-7)=-\frac{1}{2}(-2)+b

(-7)=1+b

b=-7-1

b=-8

Step 4. Write the equation in Slope-intercept form

y=mx+b

y=-\frac{1}{2} x-8

Please hurry!! I have less than 5 min!!<br> What is the area of this composite shape?
vladimir2022 [97]

Area of the composite shape = 292 yd²

Solution:

The shape is splitted into two rectangles.

The reference image of the answer is attached below.

Length of the top rectangle = 21 yd

Width of the top rectangle = 29 yd – 22 yd = 7 yd

Length of the side rectangle = 29 yd

Width of the side rectangle = 26 yd – 21 yd = 5 yd

Area of the figure = Area of the top rectangle + Area of the side rectangle

                              = (length × width) + (length × width)

                              = (21 × 7) + (29 × 5)

                              = 147 + 145

                              = 292

Area of the composite shape = 292 yd²
