240 eggs were bought. A trick you can do when it’s 25% is 4. So for this I multiplied 60 by 4 which would give the 100%

What is the equation of a line that passes through the point (8, −2) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 3x + 4y = 15?

Dafna1 [17]

Step 1

<u>Find the slope of the given line</u>

we have

$3x+4y=15$

Isolate the variable y

Subtract $3x$ both sides

$3x+4y-3x=15-3x$

$4y=-3x+15$

Divide by $4$ both sides

$y=-\frac{3}{4}x+ \frac{15}{4}$

the slope of the given line is

$m=-\frac{3}{4}$

Step 2

Find the equation of the line that passes through the point $(8,-2)$ and is parallel to the given line

we know that

if two lines are parallel, then their slopes are equal

The equation of the line into point-slope form is equal to

$y-y1=m(x-x1)$

we have

$m=-\frac{3}{4}$

$(x1,y1)=(8,-2)$

substitute in the equation

$y+2=-\frac{3}{4}(x-8)$

$y=-\frac{3}{4}x+6-2$

$y=-\frac{3}{4}x+4$ or $3x+4y=16$

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

$y=-\frac{3}{4}x+4$

$3x+4y=16$

9. Determine the volume of concrete needed to build a ramp in the shape of a triangular prism to the nearest tenth of a cubic me

kogti [31]

Answer:

67.5

Step-by-step explanation:

I've learned this multiple ways but in my opinion this is the easiest. Just times everything together so, 40 x 2.5 x 1.2 which equals 135 and then divide 135 by 2 which equals your answer of 67.5 which is rounded to the nearestt tenth already.
