Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of cakes baked by Calvin and Susie = 3 : 7

Cakes baked by Calvin = 3x

Cakes baked by Susie = 7x

Cakes baked by Calvin = Cakes baked by Susie - 60

3x = 7x - 60

7x - 60 = 3x

7x        = 3x  + 60

7x - 3x = 60

      4x  = 60

        x = 60/4

x = 15

Cakes baked by Calvin = 3*15 = 45

Cakes baked by Susie = 7 *15 = 105

Total cakes baked = 45 + 105 = 150

They both baked 150 cakes altogether.

The blanks in the given passage are filled with the appropriate words as follows-

Ecology is the study of how <em><u>(1) plants</u></em>, animals, and people live <u><em>(2) together</em></u> and help each other. But man sometimes forgets he <em><u>(3) is</u></em> a part of the <u><em>(4) family</em></u> of all living things. Here is an example. A planter is <u><em>(5) talking</em></u> about killing <u><em>(6) weeds</em></u> on his land. He remembers his first <u><em>(7) experience</em></u> with a weedicide. He was a <u><em>(8) planter</em></u> then, working <u><em>(9) on</em></u> a rubber plantation. He had a problem with weeds. The cost of weeding of the <u><em>(10) fields</em></u> by hand was getting <em><u>(11) too</u></em> high. So he used a new, cheap, and effective <u><em>(12) method</em></u>, good old Sodium Arsenate. He sprayed plenty of this <em><u>(13) around</u></em> to kill the weeds. The first thing to <em><u>(14) react</u></em> were the frogs.

I have this point: (-1,2) and my slope is undefined. How would I write my equation in point-slope form: y - y^1 = m (x -x^1)? Th
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the point, (-1, 2), and that the slope is <u><em>undefined</em></u>.

The standard linear equation of vertical lines is <em>x</em> =<em> a</em>, where the x-intercept is (<em>a</em>, 0), and the slope is undefined because all points on the line have the same x-coordinate.  Attempting to solve for the slope of a vertical line using the slope formula, m = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁), will result in a mathematical operation of <u>division by zero</u> (which is an <em>undefined operation</em>).  

Since the slope is <u>undefined</u>, then it is <u>not possible</u> to create a linear equation in either the slope-intercept form, or point-slope form.

Therefore, the equation of a vertical line given the point, (-1, 2) is <em>x</em> = -1.
