Answer:
Slope is m= -1
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the slope formula to find the slope m
.
y=mx+b
Number of pounds of cashews is 36 pounds and number of pounds of walnuts is 4 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Given details are cost of cashews = $1.58, cost of walnuts = 78 cents = $0.78, total weight of nuts = 40 pounds, cost of nuts per pound = $1.50
- Step 2: Let number of pounds of cashews to be mixed be C, then number of pounds of walnuts will 40 - C. Form equation with these variables.
⇒ 1.58 C + (40-C) 0.78 = 40 × 1.50
⇒ 1.58 C + 31.2 - 0.78 C = 60
⇒ 1.58 C - 0.78 C = 60 - 31.2
⇒ 0.8 C = 28.8
⇒ C = 36 pounds
- Step 3: Calculate number of pounds of walnuts
⇒ Number of pounds of walnuts = 40 - C = 4 pounds
Perpendicular means it’s opposite reciprocals for example : the slope is 2 then the perpendicular line’s slope would be -1/2 because it flips the number also makes it the opposite sign.
If it’s parallel then the slope would be the same
I hope that helps
A because absolute values are always more than or equal to 0
The value is 1/62
if it is wrong I am sorry but it should be
