1:4
smaller side = 2
bigger side = 8 since 2/8 = 1/4
1/4 = 2/x
x=4*2=8
Answer:5
Step-by-step explanation:
If you look at the question in reverse you can backtrack your way through. Take 10 and instead of dividing, multiply it by 10, which is 60, add 6 instead of subtracting, which is 66, divide by 6 instead of multiplying, which is 11 and finally subtract 6 instead of adding, which is 5. Use five and try the question over to make sure you calculated correct.
Slope formula : y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
( 34 , 12 ) and ( 32 , 48 )
48 - 12 / 32 - 34
36 / - 2
slope = - 18
Answer:
All the options are correct
Since 20 total gallons are needed, the amount of 10% solutions can be x and the amount of 20% solutions can be (20-x) since they add up to 20. In addition, the 17% solution has 20 gallons. Putting this into an equation, we get that 10% is 0.1 (by moving the decimal 2 spots to the left) , 0.2=20%, and 0.17=17%. With that information, we can determine that 10%*x+20%*(20-x)=20*0.17 due to that with 20 gallons of the 27% solution, we need a certain amount of solution. For every gallon, we add 0.17 of the solution, so we have 20*0.17. Similarly, we want that total amount to be represented by the amount of 20% + the amount of 10%.
0.1x+0.2(20-x)=0.1x+4-0.2x=-0.1x+4 using the distributive property
-0.1x+4=20*0.17=3.4. Subtract 4 from both sides to get -0.1x=-0.6, and multiply both sides by -10 (to separate x) to get x=6. Therefore, the amount of 10% solution is 6 gallons and the amount of 20% solution is 20-5=14 gallons
