A line has the equation 3x ? 4y = 1. Choose the equation of a line that is parallel to the given line.

Answer:

Find a line which also has 3/4 as the slope or 3x - 4y in standard form.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the line is 3x - 4y = 1 then the line which is parallel will have the same coefficients of x and y. Parallel lines never cross and to ensure this have the same slope. The slope is a ratio which can be solved for in an equation using the coefficients of x and y. Here the slope is:

3x - 4y = 1

-4y = -3x + 1

y = 3/4x - 1/4.

Find a line which also has 3/4 as the slope or 3x - 4y in standard form.

Several paint mixtures are made by mixing blue paint and white paint. Paint Colors Blue Paint White Paint Mixture A 5 cups 12 cu

Flura [38]

The correct answer is option B which is mixture B will have the highest ratio of blue paint.

<h3>What is a ratio?</h3>

In mathematics, ratios are used to determine the relationship between two numbers it indicates how many times is one number to another number.

<h3 />

The given ratios are:-

Mixture A = $\dfrac{5}{12} = 0.41$

Mixture B = $\dfrac{6}{6}= 1$

Mixture C = $\dfrac{4}{12}= 0.33$

Mixture B = $\dfrac{5}{6}=0.83$

Here the ratio of mixture B is the highest among all the options available.

Therefore the correct answer is option B which is mixture B will have the highest ratio of blue paint.

Answer:

1) 25+7(n-1)

When the above 'n'(hours) is substituted on the equation, it equals up to the right cost.

2) Given that n represents the no.of bikes, you just plug it in to the equation below.

250+39(n-1)

= 250+39(20-1)

= 250+39*19

= 250+741

= 991
