Answer:

4 kg : 12 kg : 20 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of "ratio units" is 1+3+5 = 9, so each of them represents ...

(36 kg)/9 = 4 kg

Multiplying the given ratio by 4 kg will show the appropriate division:

1(4 kg) : 3(4 kg) : 5(4 kg) = 4 kg : 12 kg : 20 kg

The red graph is the result of a vertical translation, 4 units down, of the black graph.

This means that, whenever the black graph associates

$x\mapsto f(x)$

The red graph must associate 4 less to the same input:

$x\mapsto f(x)-4$

So, the equation for the red graph is

$y=f(x)-4$

or, equivalently,

$y+4=f(x)$

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line that passes through point (-3, 8) is y = -2/3x + 6. What is the point-

Elena-2011 [213]

$y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{2}{3}}x+6\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so hmmm then we know the slope of that line is -2/3, so we're really looking for the point-slope form of a line with a slope of -2/3 and that passes through (-3 , 8)

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{8})\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m} ~=~ -\cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{8}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{2}{3}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)})\implies y-8=-\cfrac{2}{3}(x+3)$
