For a recent year, 38 more Democrats than Republicans represented a country. If the total number of representatives of the count

ry from these two parties was
452, find the number of representatives from each party.

Solve the equation.

Interpret the results and write the answer in words.

The smaller piece is x = _ in.
The longer piece is _x = _ ( ) = _ in.
The lengths of the two pieces are _ in
and _ in.

Second question isn't well formatted

Answer:

Number of republicans = 207

Number of democrats = 245

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Number of republicans = x

Number of democrats = x + 38

Total number of representatives from the two parties = 452

Tge number of representatives from each party can be calculated thus ;

Number of democrats + number of republicans = total number of representatives

(x + 38) + x = 452

x + 38 + x = 452

2x = 452 - 38

2x = 414

x = 414 / 2

x = 207

Number of republicans = 207

Number of democrats = 207 + 38 = 245

On a coordinate plane, a line goes through (negative 12, negative 2) and (0, negative 4). A point is at (0, 6).
mariarad [96]

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line ⇒ 1st

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have:

  • Same slopes
  • Different y-intercepts

The formula of the slope of a line which passes through points (x_{1},y_{1}) and (x_{1},y_{1}) is m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

∵ The given line passes through points (-12 , -2) and (0 , -4)

∴ x_{1} = -12 , x_{2} = 0

∴ y_{1} = -2 , y_{2} = -4

- Use the formula of the slope above to find the slope of the given line

∵ m=\frac{-4-(-2)}{0-(-12)}=\frac{-4+2}{12}=\frac{-2}{12}=\frac{-1}{6}

∴ The slope of the given line is \frac{-1}{6}

∵ The two lines are parallel

∴ Their slopes are equal

∴ The slope of the parallel line = \frac{-1}{6}

∵ The parallel line passes through point (0 , 6)

- The form of the linear equation is y = mx + b, where m is the slope

  and b is the y-intercept (y when x = 0)

∵ m = \frac{-1}{6} and b = 6

∴ The equation of the parallel line is y = \frac{-1}{6} x + 6

Let us check which point is on the line by substitute the x in the equation by the x-coordinate of each point to find y, if y is equal the y-coordinate of the point, then the point is on the line

Point (-12 , 8)

∵ x = -12 and y = 8

∵ y = \frac{-1}{6} (-12) + 6

∴ y = 2 + 6 = 8

- The value of y is equal the y-coordinate of the point

∴ Point (-12 , 8) is on the line

Point (-12 , 8) is on the line that passes through (0, 6) and is parallel to the given line

The drama club you are part of is hosting a pancake breakfast. You are in charge of buying the sausage, which costs $5 per pound
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

<h2>C.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the pictures.

x - sausage

y - bacon

A. 20 pounds of sausage and 90 pound of bacon

x = 20 → y = 100 > 90

B. 40 pound of sausage and 40 pound of bacon

x = 40 → y = 75 > 40

C. 60 pound of sausage and 80 pound of bacon

x = 60 → y = 50 < 80

D. 80 pound of sausage and 20 pound of bacon​

x = 80 → y = 25 > 20
