3. 'a' and 'b' are the intercepts made

Mathematics

Julli [10]2 years ago

Given:

'a' and 'b' are the intercepts made  by a straight-line with the co- ordinate axes.

3a = b and the line  pass through the point (1, 3).

To find:

The equation of the line.

Solution:

The intercept form of a line is

\dfrac{x}{a}+\dfrac{y}{b}=1         ...(i)

where, a is x-intercept and b is y-intercept.

We have, 3a=b.

\dfrac{x}{a}+\dfrac{y}{3a}=1           ...(ii)

The line  pass through the point (1, 3). So, putting x=1 and y=3, we get

\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{3}{3a}=1

\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{1}{a}=1

\dfrac{2}{a}=1

Multiply both sides by a.

2=a

The value of a is 2. So, x-intercept is 2.

Putting a=2 in b=3a, we get

b=3(2)

b=6

The value of b is 6. So, y-intercept is 6.

Putting a=2 and b=6 in (i), we get

\dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{y}{6}=1

Therefore, the equation of the required line in intercept form is \dfrac{x}{2}+\dfrac{y}{6}=1.

6. Mr. Bernard travels 5.12 km per hour on his bike. How far can he travel in 3.25 hours?
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

6. C. 16.64 km

7. B. P 216.00

8. B. P 565 425

9. C. 0.27

10. D. 24.6875

11. B. 3 kg

12. B. ratio

13. A. Proportion

14. D. 6:10

15. B. 2:3

Step-by-step explanation:

6. Mr. Bernard travels 5.12 km per hour on his bike. How far can he travel in 3.25 hours?

Speed = 5.12km/hr

Time = 3.25 hr

To find the distance;

Distance = speed * time

Distance = 5.12 * 3.25

Distance = 16.64 km

7. Mrs. Allysa purchased 48 pencils at P 4.50 each. How much did she pay for all the pencils?

Quantity = 48 pencils

Cost price = P 4.50

To find the total selling price;

Total = quantity * cost price

Total = 48 * 4.50

Total = P 216

8. The Villaroel family bought a 125.65 square meter lot at P 4500.00 per square meter. How much did they

pay?

Quantity = 125.65 m²

Cost price = P 4500

Total price = 125.65 * 4500

Total price = P 565425

9. What is 2.7/10 = 0.27

10. What is 98.75/4 = 24.6875

11. A store owner has 63 kilograms of candy. If she puts the candy into 21 jars, how much candy will each jar

contain?

Mass = 63 kg

Amount = 21 jars

Each jar = 63/21 = 3 kg

12. Ratio: It is the quantitative relation between two amounts showing the number of times one value contains or is contained within the other.

13. Proportion: It is a statement that two ratios are equal.

14. What ratio is equal to 3:5?

We would multiply both ratio by 2

3:5 * 2 = 6:10

15. What ratio is proportional to 4:6?

We would divide both ratio by 2

4:6 / 2 = 2:3
