The ratio is 4:3:1
let the ratio be 4x:3x:x
according to the question,4x+3x+x=40
8x=40
x=5
therefore amount of gravel=x*4=5*4=20

amount of sand=5*3=15

amount of cement=5*1=5
Answer:
The value of x is -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find x, we have to put everything in base 6 and continue to simplify. Since we know that 216 is 6^3, we can replace that.
6^x = 1/216
6^x = 1/(6^3)
Now, when there is a power in the denominator, we know we can move it to the numerator by making it negative. We can do that to get the bases to match.
6^x = 1/(6^3)
6^x = 6^-3
Now that they are both put in simple base 6 systems, we can just eliminate the bases and assume that the powers are equal. This lets us know that x = -3.
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
-(-17)= 17
Answer:
y = 3x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
If two lines are parallel to each other, they have the same slope.
The first line is Y = 3X - 5. Its slope is 3. A line parallel to this one will also have a slope of 3.
Plug this value (3) into your standard point-slope equation of y = mx + b.
y = 3x + b
To find b, we want to plug in a value that we know is on this line: in this case, it is (0, 1). Plug in the x and y values into the x and y of the standard equation.
1 = 3(0) + b
To find b, multiply the slope and the input of x (0)
1 = 0 + b
Now, add 0 to both sides to isolate b.
1 = b
Plug this into your standard equation.
y = 3x + 1
This equation is parallel to your given equation (y = 3x - 5) and contains point (0, 1)
Hope this helps!
