Answer
Find out the how many pounds of metal are in 1,950 lb of ore .
To proof
let us assume that the pounds of metal are in 1,950 lb of ore be x .
As given
In an ore, 9.8% of its total weight is metal.
ore weight = 1,950 lb
9.8% is written in the decimal form
= 0.098
Than the equation becomes
x = 0.098 × 1950
x = 191.1 pounds
Therefore the 191.1 pounds of metal are in 1,950 lb of ore .
Hence proved
To solve this problem you must use the information given in the problem above:
1. You have that he jogs to the park and then
to the playground, then he jogs
miles to the bridge and
to his house.
2. Therefore, as you can see, Jerry completes his jog when he arrives to his house. So, he is from his house.
Then, the answer is:
Answer:
; line D in the options.
Step-by-step explanation:
The set of equations has no solutions if the two lines are parallel. A quick way to create a parallel line is to solve for y, put it in slope-intercept form. Else, as long as the cofficient of x and y are in the same ratio (in this case 1:1), the two lines are parallel, you just have to be careful not to pick the same line again!
The condition makes sure you are still getting lines (else you would get rid of both x and y); the condition
makes sure you're not picking line A again, just written in a different form.
Now that we have the options:
A and C have a different ratio for the coefficient of x and y (2:1 and 1:2) so are not good.
Choice B is just a more complicated way to write the same line, you can see by dividing both sides by 2 and get back x+y=2.
Line D is correct.
