Answer:
tons of high steel and 
tons of low steel
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of tons of high grade steel and y be the number of tons ow low grade steel needed.
In x tons of high grade steel there are
tons of iron
tons of magnese
In y tons of low grade steel there are
tons of iron
tons of magnese
NASA orders 500 tons of steel, so
and specifies that it must be in the proportion 80% iron and 20% magnese, so
From the first equation,
Substitute it into the second equation:
Answer:
The slope is (1/5)
Step-by-step explanation:

The "dot product" of two vectors has several different formulas.
Since you are given the x- and y-coordinates of both vectors a and b, we can apply the formula
a dot b = ax*bx + ay*by, where ax=x-component of vector a, by=y comp of vector b, and so on.
So, for the problem at hand, ax * bx + ay * by becomes
3(-2) + (-8)(-6) = -6 + 48 = 42 (answer). Note that the dot product (or "scalar product" is itself a scalar.
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
14/18 equals 7/9
Dividing by two on the first ratio makes:
7/9 equals 7/9
