Answer:

The slope is \frac{2}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the general equation of a straight line y = mx+c

Here m is the slope of the line.

So let's get the equation of the line in the question in the same form.

-48 = 2x-8y

Add 8y to both sides: 8y - 48 = 2x

Add 48 to both sides: 8y = 2x + 48

Divide by 8 to get it into the general equation: y = \frac{2}{8} x + 6

Now compare it to the general equation to find the value of m. The value of m is the coefficient of x which we can see is \frac{2}{8}

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (90-80)/(0-1)

     = 10/-1

   =-10

The slope is -10 ft/s

This means the height decreases 10 ft for every second that passes

This is not proportional because it has to go through the point (0,0)

4.

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

    = (1000-0)/(3-0)

     = 1000/3

   =1000/3

The slope is $1000/3

This means the 1000 dollars is sold every 3 days

This is proportional because it goes through the point (0,0) and has a constant slope

Kathi and Robert Hawn had a pottery stand at the annual Skippack Craft Fair. They sold some of their pottery at the original pri
grigory [225]

Answer:27 pieces were sold at the original price.

63 pieces were sold at the new price

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the original price.

Let y represent the number of pieces of pottery that was sold at the new price.

They sold some of their pottery at the original price of​ $9.50 for each​ piece. This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the original price would be 9.5x

They later decreased the price of each piece by​ $2. This means that the new price was 9.5 - 2 = $7.5

This means that the amount that they got from selling x pieces of pottery at the new price would be 7.5y

If they sold all 90 pieces and took in ​$729​, then the equations are

x + y = 90

9.5x + 7.5y = 729 - - - - - - - - - -1

Substituting x = 90 - y into equation 1, it becomes

9.5(90 - y) + 7.5y = 729

855 - 9.5y + 7.5y = 729

- 9.5y + 7.5y = 729 - 855

- 2y = - 126

y = - 126/- 2 = 63

Substituting y = 63 into x = 90 - y, it becomes

x = 90 - 63 = 27

Compute the loss of head and pressure drop in 200 ft of horizontal 6-in diameter asphalted cast iron pipe carrying water with a
laiz [17]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

12 inches = 1 ft.

6 inches = 6 inches * (1 ft./12 inches) = 0.5 ft.

Therefore the diameter of the cast iron (D) = 6 inches = 0.5 ft.

The area of cast iron (A) = πD²/4 = π(0.5)²/4 = 0.196 ft²

The velocity (V) = 6 ft./s, the acceleration due to gravity (g) = 32.2 ft./s²

ε/D = 0.0004 ft./ 0.5 ft. = 0.0008

Using the moody chart, find the line ε/D = 0.0008 and determine the point of intersection with the vertical line R = 2.7 * 10⁵. Hence we get f = 0.02.

The head loss (h) is:

h_f=f*\frac{L}{d}* \frac{V^2}{2g}=0.02*\frac{200\ ft}{0.5\ ft} *\frac{(6\ ft/s)^2}{2*32.2\ ft/s^2}=4.5\ ft

The pressure drop (Δp) is:

Δp = ρgh_f = (62.4\ lbf/ft^3)(4.5\ ft)= 280\ lbf/ft^2
