Answer:

The number of butterflies he collects = 176

The number of moth he collects = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to do with ratio.

We are told in the question that:He collects 4 butterflies for every moth.

Hence, the ratio of

Butterflies : Moth

4 : 1

Sum of the proportion = 4 + 1 = 5

We are also told he has a total of 220 butterflies and moths.

Hence:

The number of butterflies he collects is calculated as

4/5 × 220 = 176 butterflies

The number of moth that he collects =

1/5 × 220 = 44 moth

Amy is helping plan her school's new basketball court. The west edge of the basketball court is located on the line y = 2x + 5.
ipn [44]

Answer:

Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96

So, Option 1 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The east edge cannot intersect with the west edge means that two lines are parallel.

If the two lines are parallel then they have same slope. We need to find the slopes of given lines and check which line has slope same as slope of west edge.

Slope of west edge.

y = 2x + 5

The standard equation for slope intercept form is:

y = mx+b

where m is the slope. So, m= 2

Now finding line for east edge.

Option 1.

Convert each given equation to standard slope intercept form and find the slope.

2x -y =96

-y = -2x +96

Multiply with -1

y = 2x -96

m = 2

Option 2.

-2x -y = 96

-y = 2x +96

y = -2x-96

m = -2

Option 3

-y-2x =48

-y = 2x +48

y = -2x -48

m = -2

Option 4.

y+2x = 48

y = -2x+48

m = -2

So, only line of Option 1 has slope = 2 which is equal to the slope of west edge.

Line of east wedge is: 2x - y = 96

So, Option 1 is correct.

4. A mountain climber needs to descend 2,000 feet.
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

C. 500 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want to make it all equal, we can divide the 2,000 ft by 4 because we have 4 equal descents.

2000 ÷ 4 = 500

He should travel <u>500 feet</u> in each descent.

Can somone help me pls
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

First equation = 4x - 8

Second equation = 7x - 35

Seperate the equation with an equal sign to make it an equality equation and solve for X so :

4x - 8 = 7x - 35 (Given)

-3x - 8 = -35 (Subtraction property of equality)

-3x = -27 (Addition property of equality)

x = 9 (Division property of equality)

Solution:

x = 9
