Answer: 2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4(22-x)=17-x

66/4-3/4x=34/2-x

33/2-3/4x=34/2-x

1/4x=1/2

x=2

Answer:

that's 2kg because 22*.75 is 17 the difference is -5 each time. 17- another 5 is 12 or 2/4 the original amount. you keep going and at the end you are left with 2kg

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m= 1/2?
Taya2010 [7]

Incomplete Question the complete Qs is

Which of the following is a correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m = 1/2?  

a: y=1/2x+2

b: y=-2x+1/2

c: x-2y=-4

d: y-1=1/2(x+2)

Answer:

The Correct option is c. x-2y=-4

Therefore the correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m= 1/2 is

x-2y=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Slope = m =\dfrac{1}{2}

point A(x₁, y₁)=(-2,1)  

To Find:  

Equation of Line  =?  

Solution:  

Equation of a line passing through a points A( x₁ , y₁) and having slope m is given by the formula,  

i.e equation in point - slope form

(y-y_{1})=m(x-x_{1})

Now on substituting the slope and point A( x₁ , y₁) ≡ ( -2 , 1) we get

(y-1)=\dfrac{1}{2}(x-(-2))\\\\2y-2=x+2\\x-2y=-2-2=-4\\x-2y=-4 As required

Therefore the correct equation for the line passing through the point (-2,1) and having slope m= 1/2 is

x-2y=-4

X4 – 17x2 + 16 = 0 Rewrite the equation in terms of u
slavikrds [6]
You probably are interested in expressing the given equation as a quadratic equation in u, as it will make it easy to find the solutions.

Let u = x²
So,
u² = x⁴

So, the given equation can be written as:

u² - 17u + 16 = 0

Now the equation is quadratic in u and the solutions can be calculated using quadratic formula or factorization.
