Answer:

percent of iron in alloy= 100-42 = 58%

weight of the iron = 55×58÷100= 31.9

weight of iron= 31.9 kg

weight of copper= 55-31.9=23.1

weight of copper = 23.1

Answer: copper = 23.1 kg

             iron = 31.9 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

copper = 42% of 55

             = 42/100 * 55

            = 42/20 * 11

           = 21/10 * 11

          = 231/10

          = 23.1 kg

  so iron = 100% - 42%

             = 58%

so

58% of 55

= 58/100 * 55

= 58/20 * 11

=31.9 kg

Which of the following is a point-slope equation of a line that passes through the points (-1,4) and (8,-2)
dexar [7]

Answer:

y = (2/3)x + 4 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

For reference, a linear function has an equation of y = mx + b

The first thing we're going to do is use the slope formula, \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} or rise over run. In this case that looks like:

(-2-4) - (8 - -1)

-2 -4 comes out to - 6, and the denominator comes out to 9.

6/9 is equal to 2/3, which is our m or slope value.

Next we want to find the b value, or our y-intercept. To do that we'll plug one of the points into the equation with our new-found slope:

4 = (2/3)-1 +b

4 = -2/3 + b

4 2/3 = b

That means our complete equation is:

y = (2/3)x + 4 2/3

OR

y = (2/3)x + 14/3 (equivalent but an improper fraction rather than a mixed fraction).
