Find the value of x so that the line passing through (-3,7) and(x,5) has a slope of -4

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

x= -5/2 or -5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

you know the equation: y=mx+b, so we can substitute the -3 for x, the 7 for y and the -4 for m:

7=-4(-3)+b

now solve:

7=12+b

subtract 12 on both sides:

b=-5

now what you want to do is substitute it in and solve for x:

y=-4x-5

so:

5=-4x-5,

solve:

10=-4x

x=-5/2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hope this helped :)

The midpoint of GH is M( 6,-4). One endpoint is G(8,-2). Find the coordinates of endpoint H.

Answers

Using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).

The Midpoint Formula

The midpoint formula is given as: [tex](x_m, y_m) = (\frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Where,

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = coordinates of the midpoint

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = coordinates of the first point

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = coordinates of the second point

Given the following:

[tex](x_m, y_m)[/tex] = M( 6,-4)

[tex](x_1, y_1)[/tex] = G(8,-2)

[tex](x_2, y_2)[/tex] = H(?, ?)

Plug in the values into the midpoint formula

[tex]M(6, -4) = (\frac{8 + x_2}{2}, \frac{-2 + y_2}{2} )[/tex]

Solve for the x-coordinate and y-coordinate separately

[tex]6 = \frac{8 + x_2}{2}[/tex]

Multiply both sides

[tex]6 \times 2 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 = 8 + x_2\\\\12 - 8 = x_2\\\\4 = x_2\\\\\mathbf{x_2 = 4}[/tex]

[tex]-4 = \frac{-2 + y_2}{2}\\\\-8 = -2 + y_2\\\\-8 + 2 = y_2\\\\-6 = y_2\\\\\mathbf{y_2 = -6}[/tex]

Therefore, using the midpoint formula, the coordinates of endpoint H are (4, -6).

Harry read 1/3 of a book on Saturday and three force of the remainder on Sunday. If he still had 75 pages left how many pages were in the book?

Answers

900

You work backwards;
Since he read 3/4 of the remainder that would be 75 x 4 because 75 was left after 3/4. You would get 300. Then, you would do 300 / (1/3), this is getting the final thing, equals 900.

An urn contains three red balls and four blue balls. Draw two balls at random from the urn, without replacement. Compute the expected number of red balls in your sample. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

in total we have 3+4 = 7 balls.

when we draw the first ball, the probability to draw a red ball is 3/7, and a blue ball 4/7.

when we draw the second ball, we have now only 6 balls in total.

the probabilty to draw a red back now depends also on the result of the first draw.

if the first ball was already red, then we have only a chance now of 2 out of 6.

if the first ball was blue, then we have now a chance of 3 out of 6.

so, the probably to draw at least 1 red ball in 2 draws is the probability of drawing one on the first draw plus the probability of drawing one on the second :

1 - probability to see 2 blue balls

1 - 4/7 × 3/6 = 1 - 12/42 = 30/42 = 0.714285714...

the expected number of red balls in 2 draws is

1 red in first red in first red in second

but not second and second but not first

1×(3/7 × 4/6) + 2×(3/7 × 2/6) + 1×(4/7 × 3/6) = 12/42 + 12/42 + 12/42 = 36/42 = 6/7 = 0.857142857 ≈ 0.8571

he school that Tony goes to is selling tickets to a play. On the first day of ticket sales the school
sold 9 adult tickets and 8 student tickets for a total of $164. The school took in $73 on the second
day by selling 2 adult tickets and 7 student tickets.

What is the price each of one adult ticket?

What is the price each of one student ticket?

Plz explain how to do this

Answers

Answer:

The price of 1 adult ticket is 12 dollars, and the price of a ticket for one student is 7 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a system of equations for the two days that the play was shown.

Let x = the price of an adult ticket

Let y = the price of a student ticket

For the first day:

9x+8y=164

For the second day:

2x+7y=73

Now, we can solve using the elimination method. Multiply the first equation by 2 and the second equation by 9. Then swap the order of the equations.

18x+63y= 657-18x+16y= 3280x+ 47y= 329divide both sides by 47y = 7Plug in 7 for y for the 2nd equation2x+7(7)=732x+49=73subtract 49 from both sides2x= 24divide both sides by 2x = 12 Check:2(12)+7(7)=7324+49= 73!

The maximum rate at which the diver will descend will be 7 feet per hour.

What is the rate of change?

The rate of change is the change of a quantity over 1 unit of another quantity.

Most of the time the rate of change is the change with respect to time.

For example the speed 3meter/second.

As per the given,

Initial depth of scuba diver = 12.8 feet

Let's say the rate of a scuba diver is "r".

Initial depth + depth cover with constant rate final depth

12.8 + (312/60)r ≤ 49.2

r ≤ 7

Thus, the maximum rate at which a diver can descend is 7 feet per hour.

Hence"The maximum rate at which the diver will descend will be 7 feet per hour".

Nick wants to buy a pair of shoes. The original cost of the shoes is $56.75, and the markup is 12 percent. How much will he have to pay for the shoes?

Answers

Answer:

Nick will have to pay $63.56 for the shoes.

Step-by-step explanation:

f the original cost of the shoes is $56.75 and the markup is 12% greater than the original price, the final price would be $63.56.

$56.75 • 0.12 = $6.81

$56.75 + $6.81 = $63.56

$56.75 + 12% = $63.56

Answer:

One positive number is 7 more than twice another. If their product is 1425, find the numbers.

Answers

Answer:

25 and 57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the lowest number be x then the other is 2x + 7, So:

x(2x + 7) = 1425

2x^2 + 7x - 1425 = 0

2 * - 1425 = -2850 = -2 * 3 * 5 * 5 * 19

We need 2 numbers whose product is -2850 and whose sum is + 7.

These are 3 * 19 = 57 and -2* 5 * 5 = -50 so we write:

2x^2 - 50x + 57x - 1425 = 0  Now we factor by grouping:

2x(x - 25) + 57( x - 25) = 0)

(2x + 57) ( x - 25) = 0

x = -57, 25.

We ignore the negative as we are given that the number is positive,

x = 25 is one number and the other is 2(25) + 7 = 57.
