Answer:

12 more days

Step-by-step explanation:

If Billy read 175 pages in 5 days, that means he read 35 pages a day.

175 / 5 = 35 pgs

If we continue this same pattern it will look like this:

595 - 175 = 420

420 / 35 = 12 days

A dairy needs 365 gallons of milk containing 7% butterfat. How many gallons each of milk containing 9% butterfat and milk contai
azamat

The amount in gallons of each milk containing 9% butterfat and milk containing 4% butterfat which must be used to obtain the desired 365 gallons are;

  • 219 gallons of 9% fat.
  • 146 gallons of 7% fat.

<h3>What quantity of each type of milk is required for the desired 365 gallon?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the quantity of each type of milk required to arrive at the targeted fat content and quantity of milk are to be determined.

Let x = quantity of 9% fat milk and

Let y = quantity of 4% fat milk

Therefore, by mass balance; we have;

x + y = 365.

Where; y = 365 - x.

Also, by fat balance; we have;

(9% × x) + (4% × y) = (7% × 365)

9x + 4y = 2555

Therefore, the two equations to be solved simultaneously by substituting y from the first equation into the second equation as follows;

9x + 4 (365 - x) = 2555

5x = 1095

x = 1095/5

x = 219 gallons.

Also, y = 365 - 219 = 146 gallons.

What is the equation in slope-intercept form of the line
kari74 [83]

Answer:

-5/2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

you reciprocate the slope since you are trying to find a line perpendicular.

From this m=2/5 to -5/2

then use the formula y-y1 =m(x-x1)

then you put in the points

y - - 2= -5/2(x- 2)

y+2= -5/2x +5

-2            -2

y= -5/2+ 3
