8kg ham costs $12/kg. find the cost per pound.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vikki [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The cost per pound is: $5.45 per pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

8kg ham costs $12/kg

To determine

Find the cost per pound

As

1 kg = 2.2 pounds  

Weight of 8kg in ponds = 8 × 2.2 = 17.6 ponds

Cost of ham/pound = $12/2.2 pounds

                                 = $5.45 per pound

Thus, the cost per pound is: $5.45 per pound

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line 5y=x−5 through the point (-1,0).
Artemon [7]

Hey there!

First, we want to put the equation of this first line in slope-intercept form.

5y=x-5

We divide both sides by 5.

y=1/5x-1.

The slope of a perpendicular is line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line. The slope of a line perpendicular to a line with the equation y=1/2x would be -2, because you flip the numerator and denominator and then make it negative.

So, this means that the slope of the line perpendicular to the line y=1/5x-1 is -5. So, here's our equation so far.

y= -5x+b

Now, we need to find the b. To do this, we can plug in this point (-1,0) that this perpendicular line goes through and solve for b.

0=-5(-1)+b

0=5+b

b= -5

So, this gives us the equation y= -5x-5

Have a wonderful day!

It takes 20 minutes to drive to a mall at 30 mph. How long in minutes will it take to drive to the mall at 40 mph?
makvit [3.9K]

At a speed of 40 mph, it would take 15 minutes to drive to the mall

The first step to take in order to determine the answer is to determine the distance driven to the mall. This information is not given so it has to determined.

Distance = speed x total time  

  • speed = 30 mph.
  • time = 20 minutes

Speed is measured in hours, while time is measured in minutes. Both data has to be converted to the same time measurement

To convert time to hour, divide by 60 = 20 / 60 = 1/3

Distance = 1/3 x 30 = 10 m

The second step is to use the distance determined in the previous step to determine the time it would take to travel at a speed of 40 mph

Time = Distance / Average Speed

10 / 40 = 1/4 hours

To convert hours to minutes, multiply by 60 :1/4  x 60 = 15 minutes

In order to determine the time that it would take to drive to the mall, first determine the distance to the mall. Use the distance and speed to determine the time

How do I determine whether 3x-4y+7=3y is a linear equation and how do I write it in standard form?? (I learned this already but
Pani-rosa [81]

Equation of the straight line can be given in more form. The most common forms are implicit (general or standard) form ax+by+c=0 and explicit form y=kx+i, where k is line coefficient and l is cut which line made on the y axis. If k>0 then the angle that takes straight line  with the positive direction to the x axis is sharp and if k<0 then the angle that takes straight line with positive direction to the x axis is obtuse. In you case  you only need to form one monomial with variable y in the given equation in the following way: 3x-4y+7=3y => add to both side (-3y) and you get 3x-4y-3y+7=3y-3y finally we get implicit or general 3x-7y+7=0. If is it necessary to transform from the implicit into the explicit form we will do this in the following way: 3x-7y+7=0 add to both side expression (-3x-7) => 3x-3x-7y+7-7=-3x-7 => divide both side with (-7) => y= (-3x-7)/ (-7) => finally we get y=3/7 x + 1 ( in our case coefficient of direction k=3/7 and the cut which line is made3 on the y axis l=1). Its display in the decartes coordinate system is given in one of the already given answers.
