the slope of the line joining points (3 ;2) and (0;a) is-1 determine the value of a
Given:
The slope of the line joining points (3,2) and (0,a) is -1.
To find:
The value of a.
Solution:
If a line passes through two points [tex](x_1,y_1)[/tex] and [tex](x_2,y_2)[/tex], the slope of a line is:
[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]
The slope of the line joining points (3,2) and (0,a) is -1. So,
[tex]\dfrac{a-2}{0-3}=-1[/tex]
[tex]\dfrac{a-2}{-3}=-1[/tex]
Multiply both sides by -3.
[tex]a-2=-1(-3)[/tex]
[tex]a-2=3[/tex]
[tex]a=3+2[/tex]
[tex]a=5[/tex]
Therefore, the value of a is 5.

Select all ratios equivalent to 10:5.
110:55
24:2
14:6
Answer:
110:55
Step-by-step explanation:
first, let's simplify all our options
110:55=10:5
the first one works!
(to check if you're not sure, ratios are fractions. using the numerator to divide, you can divide the numerator by the denominator. in this case, the numerator happens to be greater. 110/55=2. 10/5=2. they both equal to 2! they are equivalent. you can use this to solve other problems!!)
24:2= 12:1
this does not work
14:6= 7:3
this does not work
the only one that works is 110:55

The ratio of pants to shots that John has is 2:3. If John has 8
pairs of pants then how many pants and shorts does he have?
Answer:
12 shirts
Step-by-step explanation:
Since John has 8 pants and 2 x 4 is equal to 8. Then you must multiply the number of shirts by 4 (3 x 4) to give you the number of shirts, which is 12.
Check:
2/3 is equivalent to 8/12

Mandy is shopping for plates. She is trying to decide between the three packages below. If Mandy is looking for the best deal for each individual plate, which package should she buy
Answer:
Package 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Package 1,
No. of plates = 5
Cost = $38.75
Cost of 1 plate = [tex]\dfrac{38.75}{5}=\$7.75[/tex]
Package 2,
No. of plates = 8
Cost = $58
Cost of 1 plate = [tex]\dfrac{58}{8}=\$7.25[/tex]
Package 3,
No. of plates = 14
Cost = $94.5
Cost of 1 plate = [tex]\dfrac{94.5}{14}=\$6.75[/tex]
The cost of 1 plate in package 3 is the least. It means she should buy package 3.
YOUR ASSIGNMENT: Difference of 10 Erik and Nita are playing a game with numbers. In the game, they each think of a random number from 0 to 20. If the difference between their two numbers is less than 10, then Erik wins. If the difference between their two numbers is greater than 10, then Nita wins. Use the information in the interactive and what you know about absolute value inequalities to better understand the game. Your Player 1. Choose your player, and record the number chosen by the other player. (2 points: 1 point for each answer) a. Which player did you select
Answer:
[tex]|x - y| > 10[/tex] ---- Nita wins
[tex]|x - y| < 10[/tex] --- Eric wins
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete instruction is to determine the range at which Erik or Nita wins.
To start with, let
[tex]x \to[/tex] Erik's score
[tex]y \to[/tex] Nita's score
If the difference is greater than 10, the Nita wins.
This implies that:
[tex]|x - y| > 10[/tex] ---- Nita
If less than 10, then Eric wins
This implies that:
[tex]|x - y| < 10[/tex] --- Eric wins
Now, assume that Nita chose 5.
For Nita to win, we have:
[tex]|x - y| > 10[/tex]
[tex]|x - 5| > 10[/tex]
Remove the absolute symbol
[tex]-10 > x - 5 > 10[/tex]
Split
[tex]-10 > x - 5\ or\ x - 5 > 10[/tex]
Solve for x
[tex]5 -10 > x \ or\ x > 10 + 5[/tex]
[tex]-5> x \ or\ x > 15[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]x< -5 \ or\ x > 15[/tex]
x cannot be negative.
So:
[tex]x > 15[/tex]
x cannot exceed 20.
So:
[tex]15 < x \le 20[/tex]

This month, Bia earned $157.50 in commission. How much money, in dollars, did she have in sales?
Enter a number in the space provided
Answer:
Total sales made = $ 4500
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is
Bia earns a commission on the sales she makes each month. Within a month, Bia earns a 3% commission on the first $3000 she has in sales. She earns a 4.5 % commission on the amount of her sales that are greater than $3000 .This month, Bia earned in commission $157.50. How much money, in dollars, did she have in sales? Enter a number in the space provided.
Solution
3% of the total sales made is the commission on the first $3000 for Bia and on the remaining sum of money the profit made was
Thus,
3% of 3000 + 4.5% of (X -3000) = $157.50
On solving we get -
3% * 3000 + 4.5% * (X-3000) = $157.50
$90 + 4.5% * (X-3000) = $157.50
$90 + 0.045 X - $135 = $157.50
0.045 X = $157.50 + $135 - $90
X = 4500
Total sales made = $ 4500
In the Itty Bitty High School, there are 85 students. There are 27 students who take French, 51 who take Geometry and 38 who take History. There are 10 that take Geometry and French, 7 that take History and French and 15 that take Geometry and History. There are 2 students who take all 3 and 5 that take none of these subjects.
Answer:
58 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]Total = 85[/tex]
[tex]French = 27[/tex]
[tex]Geometry = 51[/tex]
[tex]History = 38[/tex]
[tex]None = 5[/tex]
[tex]All = 2[/tex]
Required
Students that take only 1 subjects
The attached image illustrates the question.
For French only (x), we have:
[tex]x + 7 -2+10-2+2=27[/tex]
[tex]x + 15=27[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]x =- 15+27[/tex]
[tex]x =12[/tex]
For Geometry only (y), we have:
[tex]y+10-2+15-2+2=51[/tex]
[tex]y+23=51[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]y=-23+51[/tex]
[tex]y=28[/tex]
For History only (z), we have:
[tex]z +15-2+7-2+2=38[/tex]
[tex]z +20=38[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]z =-20+38[/tex]
[tex]z =18[/tex]
Students with one subject is then calculated as:
[tex]1\ subject = x+y+z[/tex]
[tex]1\ subject = 12 + 28 + 18[/tex]
[tex]1\ subject = 58[/tex]
2(x+4)-6 = 2(x-8)+1
plz show work because if I don't have it then I can't pass
Answer:
no solution
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
2(x + 4) - 6 = 2(x - 8) + 1 ← distribute and simplify both sides
2x + 8 - 6 = 2x - 16 + 1
2x + 2 = 2x - 15 ( subtract 2 from both sides )
2x = 2x - 17 ( subtract 2x from both sides )
0 = - 17 ← not possible
This indicates the equation has no solution

Done
Answer:
V = 4.187r³
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a sphere is expressed using the formula;
V = 4/3πr³
r is the radius
Substitute π = 3.14 into the formula
V = 4/3 * 3.14r³
V = 4.187r³
Hence the volume of a sphere in terms of the radius is V = 4.187r³

At the Silvermine Subs, they charge $5.75 for the basic sandwich and then $0.45 per ounce for the toppings. If Jordan paid for their sandwich with a $10 billhow many ounces of toppings could they have ordered?
Answer:
9.4 ounces
Step-by-step explanation:
this equation can be derived from the question
$5.75 + $0.45t = 10
where t = ounces of toppings
combine like terms
$0.45t = 10 - $5.75
$0.45t = $4.25
t = 4.25 / 0.45
t = 9.4 ounces
in the sum of two numbers is 20 and their difference is 10 find the numbers
"The sum of two numbers is 20" can be translated mathematically into the equation:
x + y = 20.
"... and their difference is 10" can be translated mathematically as:
x - y = 10
We can now find the two unknown numbers, x and y, because we now have a system of two equations in two unknowns, x and y. We'll use the Addition-Subtraction Method, also know as the Elimination Method, to solve this system of equations for x and y by first eliminating one of the variables, y, by adding the second equation to the first equation to get a third equation in just one unknown, x, as follows:
Adding the two equations will eliminate the variable y:
x + y = 20
x - y = 10
-----------
2x + 0 = 30
2x = 30
(2x)/2 = 30/2
(2/2)x = 15
(1)x = 15
x = 15
Now, substitute x = 15 back into one of the two original equations. Let's use the equation showing the sum of x and y as follows (Note: We could have used the other equation instead):
x + y = 20
15 + y = 20
15 - 15 + y = 20 - 15
0 + y = 5
y = 5
CHECK:
In order for x = 15 and y = 5 to be the solution to our original system of two linear equations in two unknowns, x and y, this pair of numbers must satisfy BOTH equations as follows:
x + y = 20 x - y = 10
15 + 5 = 20 15 - 5 = 10
20 = 20 10 = 10
Therefore, x = 15 and y = 5 is indeed the solution to our original system of two linear equations in two unknowns, x and y, and the product of the two numbers x = 15 and y = 5 is:
xy = 15(5)
xy = 75

(05.02)A farmer has decided to divide his land area in half in order to plant soy and corn Calculate the area of the entire area so he knows how much soil is needed. SOY #6 yards 6 yards CORN 2.5 yards 6.5 yards Each bag of soil covers 15 Square yards. How many bags should the farmer purchase? 0 1 bag O2 bags O 3 bags 4 bags
9514 1404 393
Answer:
4 bags -- the correct answer is marked
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a parallelogram is given by the formula ...
A = bh
where b is the base length and h is the height.
Here, the base is the sum of lengths 2.5 yd and 6.5 yd. The height is given as 6 yd. So, the area is ...
A = (2.5 yd + 6.5 yd)(6 yd) = 54 yd²
At 15 yd² per bag, the farmer will need ...
(54 yd²)/(15 yd²/bag) = 3 3/5 bags
Assuming the farmer can purchase only whole bags, the farmer should purchase 4 bags of soil.
