Use slopes and y-intercepts to determine if the lines 10x+3y=−3 and 5x−4y=−3 are parallel.

kvasek [131]

Answer:

They are not parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

original equation

10x + 3y = -3

subtract 10x

3y = -10x - 3

divide by 3

y = -10/3x - 1

original equation

5x - 4y = -3

subtract 5x

-4y = -5x-3

divide by -4

y = 5/4x + 3/4

the slopes are not equal to each other (5/4x and -10/3x) so they are not parallel

A landscaper needs 348 pounds of plant food. He has 114 pounds in his truck, and another 46 pound at his shop.

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

$\frac{19}{12}\ pounds$

$1\frac{7}{12}\ pounds$

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct question is

A landscaper needs 3 4/8 pounds of plant food. He has 1 1/4 pounds in his truck, and another 4/6 pound at his shop. How many more pounds of plant food does the landscaper need?

Let

x ----> the additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper

we know that

The additional pounds of plant food needed for the landscaper plus the pounds in his truck plus the pounds in his shop must be equal to the total pounds of plant food needed

The linear equation that represent this problem is

$x+1\frac{1}{4}+\frac{4}{6}=3\frac{4}{8}$
