The ratio of coins to notes in a bag is 3 to 8. If there are a total of 24 coins then how many notes are there?

BaLLatris [955]

Set up a proportion
3 coins:8 notes and then the other one 24 coins : x (unknown notes)
they have a relationship so we can set them equal to each other.
3/8=24/x cross multiply: 8 * 24 = 192
Now divide that by 3: 192/3 = 64
So there are 64 notes in the bag

What is the equation of the line that is parallel to the line 5x + 2y = 12 and passes through the point (−2, 4)?

GrogVix [38]

First find the slope of the given line like this:
$5x + 2y = 12\\2y=-5x+12\\y=\frac{-5}{2}x+6$
If two lines are parallel, then they have the same slope, so the equation we are looking for is in the form:
$y=\frac{-5}{2}x+a$ and we have to find b using the given point like this:
Substitute x = -2 and y=4 in the above equation like this and solve for a:
$4=\frac{-5}{2}(-2)+a$
$4=5+a$
$a=4-5=-1$
The equation of the line is then the following:
$y=\frac{-5}{2}x-1.$
