Mathematics

Korvikt [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since the titanic was scheduled to reach on April 17 after leaving on April 10, this means that 7 days was spent on the voyage. The total amount of meat available was 75000 pounds, hence:

number of meat per day = total amount of meat / number of days = 75000 / 7 = 10714 pounds per day.

2) Total number of silverware is 44000. Hence:

Total plates = half of total silverware = 44000/2 = 22000

3) There are 3000 potatoes in a ton, and a total of 40 tons was available on the titanic. Hence:

Total number of potatoes = 40 tons * 3000 potatoes per ton = 120000 potatoes

Javier drove 45 miles. This represent 60% of his entire trip. What is the total number of miles in Javier’s trip
Andrews [41]
60% of trip = 45 miles

let total trip distance = l

60% is given by multiplying by 0.6

So;

0.6l = 45 \\ \\ l = \frac{45}{0.6} \\ \\ \boxed{l = 75}

Your answer is 75 miles

A line has a slope of -5 and passes through the point (2, 2). What is the equation for this line?
koban [17]
To determine the equation of the line, we use the point slope form equation for this problem. It is expressed as:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

We substitute the given values in the problem to the equation.

y - 2 = -5(x - 2)
y = -5x +10+2
y = -5x +12
