Answer: m = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

What we know:

  • The slope needs to pass through the points (1, -5) and (4, 1)
  • There are 4 potential slopes given to us- only one is correct
  • We need to find the slope and make sure it is an option

How to solve:

By using the slope equation and the two points given to us, we can calculate the slope.

Process:

  • Set up equation                                                 (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
  • Substitute                                                            (1 +5 ) / (4 - 1)
  • Simplify                                                                6 / 3
  • Simplest form                                                      2/ 1 =

Slope =                                                                          2

Solution: m = 2

Answer: 99.56%

Step-by-step explanation:

Well assuming we're working with a full poll of all 100% of students, and only 0.44%, so 100 - .44 is 99.56

A pharmacist has 40% and 60% iodine solutions on hand. How many liters of each item solution will be required to produce 8 L of
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

The quantity of 40 % solution is 4 liters    and

The quantity of 60 % solution is 4 liters .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as

A pharmacist has 40% and 60% iodine solutions on hand.

Let the quantity of 40 % iodine solutions = x liter

And The quantity of 60 % iodine solutions = y liter

The total quantity of iodine mixture = 8 liter

I.e  The quantity of 40 % iodine solutions +  the quantity of 60 % iodine solutions = 8 Liter

or  x + y = 8

The The percentage of mixture solution = 50 %

∴ 40 % of x + 60 % of y = 50 % of 8

I.e 40 x + 60 y = 400         ..........A

And x + y = 8

Or, 40× ( x + y ) = 40× 8

or, 40 x + 40 y = 320       ...........B

Now , solving equations A and B

I.e (  40 x + 60 y ) - (  40 x + 40 y ) = 400 - 320

Or, (  40 x - 40 x ) + (  60 y - 40 y ) = 80

Or, 0 + 20 y = 80

∴  y = \frac{80}{20}

I.e  y = 4 liters

So, The quantity of 60 % iodine solution = y = 4 liters

Put The value of y in Eq A

So ,  40 x + 60 × 4 = 400

Or, 40 x = 400 - 240

or, 40 x = 160

∴  x = \frac{160}{40}

I.e  x = 4 liter

So, The quantity of 40 % iodine solution = x = 4 liters

Hence The quantity of 40 % solution is 4 liters and the quantity of 60 % solution is 4 liters . Answer

What is -0.75p-2=0.25p
ki77a [65]

you move first the number without the variable to the other side with the opposite sign

-0.75p=0.25+2

-0.75p=2.25

then as -0.75 is multiplying you pass it to the other side dividing

p=2.25/-0.75

p=-3
