The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:
x: the total mass of the chemical in the container
y: a sample of a chemical from a container
We have the following equation:
y = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Then, for y = 39.1 we have:
39.1 = (3/10) x - 5 3/4
Clearing x:
(3/10) x = 39.1 + 5 3/4
(3/10) x = 44.85
x = (10/3) * (44.85)
x = 149.5 grams
Answer:
the total mass in grams of the chemical in the container before the scientist removed the sample of 39.1 grams was:
x = 149.5 grams.
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, so the equation of the line in point-slope form is:
Rewriting this in standard form,
Answer:
last option
Step-by-step explanation:
Again, 1 cm represents 8 / 2 = 4 feet so the width is 4 * 4 = 16 and the length is 6 * 4 = 24.
8-2 and then 3 divided by 6 which will give you 0.5 so x=0.5
