We have:
The generic equation of the line is: y-yo = m (x-xo)
The slope is:
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
m = (- 2-0) / (3-0)
m = -2 / 3
We choose an ordered pair
(xo, yo) = (0, 0)
Substituting values:
y-0 = (- 2/3) (x-0)
Rewriting:
y = (- 2/3) x
Answer:
The equation of the line is:
y = (- 2/3) x
If you would like to know how many pounds of pasta the restaurant will need, you can calculate this using the following steps:
3 pounds of pasta ... 14 people
x pounds of pasta = ? ... 56 people
3 * 56 = 14 * x /14
x = 3 * 56 / 14
x = 12 pounds of pasta
The correct result would be 12 pounds of pasta.
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
Given y is directly proportional to x then the equation relating them is
y = kx ← k is the constant of proportion
To find k use the condition when x = 3, y = 18 , then
18 = 3k ( divide both sides by 3 )
6 = k
y = 6x ← equation of proportion
(b)
(i)
when x = 12 , then
y = 6 × 12 = 72
(ii)
when y = 42
42 = 6x ( divide both sides by 6 )
7 = x
Answer:
Equation: (2x+5)4=(2x+8)3
X: 2
Perimeter: 36
Step-by-step explanation:
You would multiply 2x+5 and 4 because there are four sides to a square, so the perimeter of the square would be 8x+20. This would go same for the triangle, making the perimeter 6x+24.
So 8x+20=6x+24 is your new equation. Then, you do the opposite of the order of operations, and add or subtract first. It would be easiest to subtract 20 and 6x from both sides.
That leaves you with 2x=4. Dividing 2 by both sides means x=2
You can plug this in to prove if it is correct.
16+20=36
12+24=36
Lmk if you get it!
