Answer:

1.5lb/ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mass of dry ice Carmen uses  = 12lb

Mass of root beet  = 8ounces

Unknown:

Ratio/Proportional constant for number of pounds to number of ounces of root beer extract  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem,

    Ratio = \frac{number of pounds of dry ice}{Ounce of root beer}

    Ratio  = \frac{12lb}{8ounces}   = 1.5lb/ounces

Can anyone help me? My teacher just recently taught me this today, be he never explained much. The question is in the photo
IceJOKER [234]

You've got five different problems in this photo ... four on top and the word problem on the bottom ... and they're all exactly the same thing:  Taking two points and finding the slope of the line that goes through them.

In every case, the procedure is the same.
If the two points are  (x₁ , y₁)  and  (x₂ , y₂) , then
the slope of the line that goes through them is

                          Slope  =  (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁) .

This is important, and you should memorize it.

#1).  (8, 10)  and  (-7, 14)

         Slope  =  (14 - 10) / (-7 - 8)  =  4 / -15

#2).  (-3, 1)  and  (-17, 2)

         Slope  =  (2 - 1) / (-17 -  -3)  =  (2 - 1) / (-17 + 3)  =  1 / -14

#3).  (-20, -4)  and  (-12, -10)

         Slope  =  [ -10 - (-4) ] / [ -12 - (-20) ]

=========================================

The word problem:

This question only gives you one point on the graph,
and then it wants to know what's the slope ?
What are you going to do for another point ?

A "proportional relationship" always passes through the origin,
so another point on the line is  (0, 0) .

Now you have two points on THAT line too, and you can easily
find its slope.

For what values of h and k does the linear system have infinitely many solutions? 2x1 + 5x2 = −1 hx1 + kx2 = 7
Kruka [31]

Answer:

The values of h and k for a linear system with infinitely many solutions are -2 and 5, respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 2\cdot x_{1}+5\cdot x_{2} = -1\cdot h\cdot x_{1} + k\cdot x_{2} = 7, if this linear system has infinitely many solutions, then the following conditions must be met:

-1\cdot h = 2 and k = 5.

h = -2 and k = 5

The values of h and k for a linear system with infinitely many solutions are -2 and 5, respectively.

Solve 5x^2 - 7x + 2 = 0 by completing the square.
Reika [66]

Answer:  The correct option is (c) \dfrac{49}{100}.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to solve the following quadratic equation by the method of completing the square:

5x^2-7x+2=0~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(i)

Also, we are to find the constant added on both sides to form the perfect square trinomial.

We have from equation (i) that

5x^2-7x+2=0\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-\dfrac{7}{5}x+\dfrac{2}{5}=0\\\\\\\Rightarrow x^2-2\times x\times \dfrac{7}{10}+\left(\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2+\dfrac{2}{5}=\left(\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2\\\\\\\Rightarrow \left(x-\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2=\dfrac{49}{100}-\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\\\\Rightarrow  \left(x-\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2=\dfrac{49-40}{100}\\\\\\\Rightarrow  \left(x-\dfrac{7}{10}\right)^2=\dfrac{9}{100}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x-\dfrac{7}{10}=\pm\dfrac{3}{10}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=\pm\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{7}{10}.

So,

x=\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{7}{10},~~~~~~~~x=-\dfrac{3}{10}+\dfrac{7}{10}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{10}{10},~~~~~~~~\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{-3+7}{10}\\\\\\\Rightarrow x=1,~-\dfrac{2}{5}.

Thus, the required solution is x=1,~-\dfrac{2}{5}. and the value of the constant added is \dfrac{49}{100}.

Option (c) is correct.
