Hi friend,

The objective is to divide $20 in 2:3 ratio.

One part be 2x, another part is 3x

Sum of them = 20

2x + 3x = 20

5x = 20

x=4

So therefore one part must be 2x = 2 x 4 = 8

Another part = 3x = 3 x 4 = 12

Hence it is divided in 2:3 ratio.

Hope my answer is helpful to u. :)

lions [1.4K]

1: True

This is because (3×5)+(5×5)=40, and 8x5=40


2: False

This is because (3×2)+(8×3)=30, not 40.

I hope i helped :)

Write a linear equation based on given information. Through (5,-5) and (4,0)

Katena32 [7]

For this case we have that by definition, the equation of the line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

$y = mx + b$

Where:

m: It is the slope of the line

b: It is the cut point with the y axis

We have the following points:

$(x_ {1}, y_ {1}) :( 5, -5)\\(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) :( 4,0)$

We find the slope:

$m = \frac {y_ {2} -y_ {1}} {x_ {2} -x_ {1}} = \frac {0 - (- 5)} {4-5} = \frac {5} {- 1} = - 5$

Thus, the equation is of the form:

$y = -5x + b$

We substitute a point and find b:

$0 = -5 (4) + b\\0 = -20 + b\\b = 20$

Finally, the equation is:

$y = -5x + 20$

Answer:

$y = -5x + 20$
