Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the first equation by 1, the second by -1 and add.

x + 2y = -16

-x - 6y = 28

--------------------

0 - 4y = 12

-4y = 12

y = -3

x + 2×-3 = -16

x - 6 = -16

x = -10

Find the distance between the point (2, 3) and the line 4x + 3y = 10 (round your answer to the nearest tenth).

Monica [59]

Explanation

Let's first graph the elements:

Using the distance formula we get:

$d=\frac{|4(2)+3(3)-10|}{\sqrt{4^2+3^2}}$ $d=\frac{|7|}{\sqrt{25}}=\frac{7}{5}=1.4$

Seed mixture X is 40 percent ryegrass and 60 percent bluegrass by weight; seed mixture Y is 25 percent ryegrass and 75.percent f

irinina [24]

Answer:

33%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the weight of the mixture to be 100g**, then the weight of ryegrass in the mixture would be 30g.

Also, assume the weight mixture X used in the mixture is Xg, then the weight of mixture Y used in the mixture would be (100-X)g.

So we can now equate the parts of the ryegrass in the mixture as:

0.4X + 0.25(100-X) = 30

<=> 0.4X + 25 - 0.25X = 30

<=> 0.15X = 5

<=> X = 5/0.15 = 500/15 = 100/3

So the weight of mixture X as a percentage of the weight of the mixture

= (weight of X/weight of mixture) * 100%

= (100/3)/100 * 100%

= 33%
