Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure the scanning of the text went well, as this has some strange gaps in the numbers.

I understand that we have 475812 oranges of one type and 65165 oranges of another type.

we have no information, if these types of oranges have significantly different sizes or weight. so, we have to assume that they are reasonably equal to each other.

therefore, the "different type" statement is just to confuse us. the text could have also said that these were 2 different truck loads of the same type.

we only need to deal with the total number of oranges.

so,

475812 + 65165 = 540977 total oranges

he packs them into 296 boxes.

that makes

540977 / 296 = 1827.625 oranges per box.

these are many oranges for one box in real life.

and it is not a round number, which is strange for a home work or test question if this type.

if the farmer truly put only the same number of oranges in every box, he would have

540977 - 1827×296 = 540977 - 540792 = 185

oranges left over.

in any case, these are all signs that there was probably something wrong with the text. but you see the principle up there. please do the same thing with the real numbers.

Numbers of one kind oranges=475812

  • No of other kind oranges=65165

Total oranges

\\ \sf\longmapsto 475812+65165=540977

  • Total boxes=296

Oranges per box:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto \dfrac{540977}{296}=1827.6

\\ \sf\longmapsto 1827(Approx)

write an equation for the line that passes through (5,-4) and is perpendicular to the graph of 5x -2y=-6
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

y = (-2/5)x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to attack this problem is to interchange the coefficients of x and y and change the sign of one to +:  5x - 2y = -6 becomes 2x + 5y = c.  Solving for the slope, m, we get 5y = -2x + c first, and then y = (-2/5)x + D.

Subbing 5 for x and -4 for y, we now have -4 = (-2/5)(5) + D.

Then -4 = -2 + D, so that D = -2.

The desired equation is thus y = (-2/5)x - 2.

Check:  Does this pass through (5, -4)?  Is -4 = (-2/5)(5) - 2 true?  Yes.

Is the slope -2/5 the negative reciprocal of 5/2?  Yes, it is.

U decreased by 17 is u-17.
if you decrease a number from something, you use subtraction.

therefore, u decreased by 17 is u-17

There are 1000 Times more people on earth right now than there was in 4,000 BCE. It's just 7billion divided by 7million.

Answer:

If the question is 2x^{2} -18x+65 then the answer is no real solution. If the question is 2x - 18x + 65 than the answer is -16x+65
