Step-by-step explanation:

Total fat in mixture is 8x+15y100 pints.

Explanation:

In a mixture of x pints of 8% butterfat, we have 8x100 pints of butter

and in y pints of 15% butterfat, we have 15y100 of butterfat.

Hence total fat in mixture is 8x+15y100 pints.

The graph of a linear function has a slope of 1/4 and passes through the point (1,3). What is the y-intercept of the function?

Vikki [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In slope intercept form, y = mx + b, the m is the slope, the b is the y intercept, and x and y can be subbed in from the point you are given of (1, 3). We are told the slope, so everything we have fills in like this:

$3=\frac{1}{4}(1)+b$

Now we just need to solve for b:

$3-\frac{1}{4}=b$ and

$\frac{12}{4}-\frac{1}{4}=b$ so

$b=\frac{11}{4}$

Write the equation of the line from the given information. slope 1/2, through (4,-3)

wariber [46]

Answer:

y+3 = 1/2 (x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation in point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

The slope is m and the point is (x1,y1)

y - -3 = 1/2(x -4)

y+3 = 1/2 (x-4)
