Answer:

x= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Ratio= 5:2:x

Combined ratio= 5+2+x

                        = 7+x

Total amount of money= $15000

Let us apply the part to all method

Hence for Matthew whose share = $7500

5/7+x=  7500/15000

Cross multiply we have

7500*(7+x)= 15000*5

52500+7500x= 75000

Collect like terms we have

7500x= 75000-52500

7500x=22500

x= 22500/7500

x=3

Hence the value of x= 3

Which of the following equations represents the linear relationship shown in the table below?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

y = 2x + 3

Put x as 2.

y = 2(2) + 3

y = 4 + 3

y = 7

Put x as 3.

y = 2(3) + 3

y = 6 + 3

y = 9

Put x as 4.

y = 2(4) + 3

y = 8 + 3

y = 11

Put x as 5.

y = 2(5) + 3

y = 10 + 3

y = 13

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line that passes through (4,−3)and (−7,8).
masha68 [24]

Line perpendicular to a given line is = 1/m

To find m, use m =y2-y1/x2-x1 formula

m = (8-(-3))/(-7-4)

m = 11/-11,

m = -1

Use y= mx+c to find equation of line

Plug in a pair of values,

-3= -1(4)+ c

c= 1

Thus, equation is:

y = -x+1

Equation of line perpendicular to this line is:

y= x+1

Hope it helps :)

You produce 100 items and 47 of them will be shipped out of state. What percent of the items will be shipped out of state?
larisa [96]
47%.
anything that's out of 100 is going to be that number as a percent.
So if you had 34 things being shipped out of state then 34% of them would be shipped out of state.
