Answer:

150.833... or 150 and 5/6 crates

Step-by-step explanation:

We can create an equation to solve this.

Let x represent the number of 120 kilogram crates that can be loaded into the chipping container.

120x (weight of the crates) + 5900 (weight already in the container) = 24000 (max weight in the container)

We'll start by subtracting 5900 from both sides to try to isolate x, the number of containers we still need to meet 24000 kilograms.

120x = 18100

Now we just have to isolate x by dividing by 120.

x = 150.83333333333333333333333333333

If you want to use a mixed fraction form for this solution since the 3's keep repeating, it would be 150 and 5/6 crates.

Use the point and the slope to graph each line. Write the equation of the line. The line passes through point (2,-2) and is para

Answer:

y= -x

Step-by-step explanation:

slope- intercept form

y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope is -1, m= -1.

Substitute m= -1 into the equation:

y= -x +c

To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates into the equation.

When x= 2, y= -2,

-2= -2 +c

c= -2 +2

c= 0

Thus, the equation of the line is y= -x.

What is the equation of a line passing through the points (-3, -2) and (2, 0)?

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

$y=0.400x+-0.800$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following question:

point A = (-3, -2)
point B = (2, 0)

To write the equation of the line that passes through two points we have to write the points in slope intercept form.

Formula for slope intercept:

$y=mx+b$

M is equal to the slope of the two points, so first we need to fine the slope of the two points.

$(-3,-2)=(x1,y1)$
$(2,0)=(x2,y2)$

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$
$m=\frac{0--2}{2--3} =\frac{2}{5}$
$m=\frac{2}{5} =0.400$

$y=mx+b$
$y=-2$
$m=0.400$
$x=-3$
$-2=0.400(-3)+b$
$0.400\times-3=-1.20$
$-2+1.2=-0.800$
$b=-0.800$

$y=0.400x+-0.800$

Hope this helps.
