Parallel to the line y=-3x + 5 passes through (-4,5)

Answers

Answer:

The equation of line that is Parallel to the line y=-3x + 5 passes through (-4,5) is: y = -3x-7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

[tex]y = -3x+5[/tex]

General form of slope-intercept equation of line is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Comparing both we get

m = -3

The slope of two parallel line sis equal.

Let m1 be the slope of line parallel to given line, then

m1 = -3

Putting in general form

[tex]y = -3x+b[/tex]

Putting (-4,5) in equation

[tex]5 = -3(-4) +b\\5 = 12+b\\b = 5-12\\b = -7[/tex]

Putting in the general form, we get

[tex]y = -3x-7[/tex]

Hence,

Anna is x years old and her sister, Jane is y years younger
What was the sum of their ages two years ago?
What will be the sum of their ages in 3 years?
How old was anna when Jane was born?

Answers

Answer:

Age of Anna = x years

Age of Jane i.e. Anna's sister = (x-y) years

a, What was the sum of their ages two years ago?

Solution,

Age of Anna two years ago = (x-2) years

Age of Jane two years ago = (x-y-2) years

Sum of their ages = x - 2 + x-y-2 = 2x - y -4

b. What will be the sum of their ages in 3 years?

Solution,

We have,

Present age of Anna = x years

Present age of Jane = (x-y) years

So,

Age of Anna after 3 years = (x+3) years

Age of Jane after 3 years = (x-y+3) years

Therefore,

Sum of their ages in 3 years = (x+3) +(x-y+3) = 2x - y+6

c. How old was Anna when Jane was born?

Solution,

Here,

According to question,

Jane is y years younger than Anna

So, Anna was y years when Jane was born.

[Suppose your age is 10 years and your brothers age is 14 years. You are 4 years younger than your brother. Also, his age was 4 years when you were born.]

20. There is a number that is three-fifths the total of the other number. When four is added to one of the numbers their sum will be equal to the other number. There are two pairs of numbers that satisfy these descriptions. What are they?

Answers

Answer: Here are the answers. I walked you through 16 in my answer.

16. 3x=2y

    1 =y-x

x=2 and y=3  

17. $2.15=.10d+.05n

      d=30-n

There are 17 nickels and 13 dimes

18. 18=4x+5y  (since that's the total amount of holes and each par is either 4 or 5 strokes each)

     4x=79-5y  (since there are 79 total strokes and each was either 4 or 5)

No solution

Step-by-step explanation: For each problem, you have to write down the information you know, then define variables for the unknown. For 16, for example, they tell you that one number, which I have chosen to call x, is equal  to two times the larger number, which I have chosen to name y. So, you'd have an equation that equals x. It also tells you that you need three times x, and two times y, which can be rewritten as 3x and 2y. In other words, 3x=2y. That said, you can move on to the next equation. Since you know the difference is 1, in other words, y-x=1, or y=x+1 ( I isolated y by adding x to both sides), you can put that into your equation as well. From there, I used the substitution method to solve.

3x=2y                      

               so          3x=2(x+1)

y=x+1  

3x=2(x+1)                 --- orig equation

3x=2x+2                   --- distributive property (Multiplied x+1 by 2)

x=2                           ---- subtracted 2x from both sides

**Now, to find y, you can substitute x into either equation. Since I know y=x+1 where x=2, I know that y must be 3. To check this, you can graph on Desmos. The lines should intersect at (2,3).

For 18, the lines are parallel so they never intersect. There is no solution.

answer:

16. 3x = 2y, 1 = y - x → 2, 3

17. 2.15 = 0.10d + 0.05n, d = 30 - n → 13 dimes and 17 nickels

18. 18 = 4a + 5b = 79, b = 79 - 72 = 7 → 11 holes

19. 3x - x = 6, y = 3x → Pair 1: 3 and 9, Pair 2: 9 and 3

20. a = 3/5b, 2/5b = 4 → Pair 1: 6 and 10, Pair 2: 10 and 6

2. The width of a rectangle is 5 units less than the length. If the area is 150 square units, then find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

Answer:

The length = x = 15 unitsThe width = x-5 = 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be the length of a rectangle

As the width of a rectangle is 5 units less than the length.

so

width of rectangle will be = w = x - 5 units

Area = 150 square units

Using the formula

Area = length × width

[tex]150=\left(x\right)\left(x-5\right)[/tex]

[tex]150=x^2-5x[/tex]

[tex]x^2-5x=150[/tex]

Subtract 50 from both sides

[tex]x^2-5x-150=150-150[/tex]

[tex]x^2-5x-150=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(x+10\right)\left(x-15\right)=0[/tex]

if

[tex]ab=0\:\mathrm{then}\:a=0\:\mathrm{or}\:b=0\:\left(\mathrm{or\:both}\:a=0\:\mathrm{and}\:b=0\right)[/tex]

[tex]x+10=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x-15=0[/tex]

[tex]x=-10,\:x=15[/tex]

As length can not be negative. so

x = 15 units

Hence,

The length = x = 15 units

The width = x-5 = 15-5 = 10 units

Set it equal to 0 & solve for t

[tex]0 = 5t^4 - 8t^3\\8t^3 = 5t^4\\8 = 5t\\\frac{8}{5} = t[/tex]

There are 52 cards in a standard deck of cards, with four of each type of card: Ace ,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,Jack ,Queen ,King . Let event A be choosing a 7 out of a deck of cards. Identify the numbers of each of the following. Enter the probability as a fraction:

Answers

Answer:

The probabilitiy of pulling a seven is 1/13 or 7.69%

Step-by-step explanation:

Im not sure if you wanted just the probability of pulling a seven or if you wanted others as well but to find out the probability  you take the total amount of cards, 52, then you take the total amount of 7's in the deck which is 4, one for each card type.

Therefore you get 4/52 or simplified to 1/13 by dividing by 4 on the numerator and the denominator.

The probability is defined as the ratio of favorable outcome to the total number of outcomes. The probability of getting a 7 out of deck of cards is 1 / 13.

What is probability?

Probability is the branch of Mathematics that deals with the measurement of the chance of occurrence of a random event.

The probability of any event always lie in the close interval of 0 and 1 [0,1].

The zero value of probability indicates that the event will not happen while its value equal to one indicate that it will happen.

Given that,

The total number of cards = 52

The types of card present in a the deck = 4.

Suppose A be the event of selecting one 7 out of a deck of cards,

Then, the probability of event A can be given as,

P (A) =  Number of 7's in the deck ÷ Total number of cards in the deck.

Since, there are four types of cards, the number of 7's in the card is 4.

Thus, P(A) = 4 / 52

    => P(A) = 1 / 13

Hence, the probability selecting one 7 out of a deck of cards is P(A) = 1 / 13.

A grocery store recently changed their apple supplying vendor. The vendor told the store manager that the mean weight for each apple is bell-shaped with # mean of 7.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.33 ounce (a) One customer comes to this grocery store and randomly picks 25 apples. What is the mean and standard deviation of the distribution of the mean weight for 25 apples? (b) What is the probability that the mean weight of 25 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces? (c) Another customer randomly picks 10 apples. Will the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer be higher than the last customer in part b? Explain it.

Answers

Answer:

b) 0.0042495

c) 0.048021

Hence, the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer wil be higher than the last customer in part b because the number of random samples in part b is greater that that in part c

Step-by-step explanation:

mean of 7.5 ounces and a standard deviation of 1.33 ounce

When random number of samples are given, we solve using z score with the formula

= z = (x-μ)/σ/√n, where

x is the raw score

μ is the population mean

σ is the population standard deviation.

n is the random number of samples

(a) One customer comes to this grocery store and randomly picks 25 apples. What is the mean and standard deviation of the distribution of the mean weight for 25 apples?

(b) What is the probability that the mean weight of 25 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces?

x > 8.2 ounces

= z = (x - μ)/σ/√n

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/√25

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/5

z = 2.63158

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<8.2) = 0.99575

P(x>8.2) = 1 - P(x<8.2) = 0.0042495

(c) Another customer randomly picks 10 apples. Will the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer be higher than the last customer in part b?

For n= 10

x > 8.2 ounces

= z = (x - μ)/σ/√n

z = (8.2 - 7.5)/1.33/√10

z = 1.66436

Probability value from Z-Table:

P(x<8.2) = 0.95198

P(x>8.2) = 1 - P(x<8.2) = 0.048021

Hence, the probability of the mean weight that the 10 apples exceeds 8.2 ounces of this customer wil be higher than the last customer in part b because the number of random samples in part b is greater that that in part c

A carpenter is building a rectangular shed with a fixed perimeter of 68 ft. What are the dimensions of the largest shed that can be built? What is its area?
The dimensions of the largest shed are _____ by _____.
The area of the largest shed is _____.

Answers

Answer:

The dimensions of the largest shed are 17 ft by 17 ft.

The area of the largest shed is 289 sq ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Fixed perimeter of the rectangular shed = 68 ft

To find:

The dimensions of the largest shed that can be built = ?

And

Area of the largest shed that can be built = ?

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the formula for perimeter of a rectangular shape shed:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 [tex]\times[/tex] (Length + Width)

68 = 2 [tex]\times[/tex] (Length + Width)

Length + Width = 34

The largest possible values are only in the case when the rectangle is a square.

i.e. Length = Width

Therefore values of length and width are:

Length = Width = [tex]\frac{34}{2} = 17\ ft[/tex]

Area of a square is given by the formula:

[tex]A = Side \times Side[/tex]

[tex]A[/tex] = 17 [tex]\times[/tex] 17  = 289 sq ft

The answer is:

The dimensions of the largest shed are 17 ft by 17 ft.

The area of the largest shed is 289 sq ft.

I had publicly declared this many times and in many ways; and I aver that, to this day I have done no official act in mere deference to my abstract judgment and feeling on slavery. I did understand, however, that my oath to preserve the Constitution to the best of my ability imposed upon me the duty of preserving, by every indispensable means, that government, that nation, of which that Constitution was the organic law. Was it possible to lose the nation, and yet preserve the Constitution?"Use context to determine the meaning of the words in bold.a) This story even delighted meb) This decision even allowed mec) This promise even prevented meQuestion 2"When, early in the war, General Fremont attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not then think it an indispensable necessity. When, a little later, General Cameron, then Secretary of War, suggested the arming of the blacks, I objected, because I did not yet think it an indispensable necessity. When, still later, General Hunter attempted military emancipation, I forbade it, because I did not yet think the indispensable necessity had come. When, in March and May and July, 1862, I made earnest and successive appeals to the Border States to favor compensated emancipation, I believed the indispensable necessity for military emancipation and arming the blacks would come, unless averted by that measure. They declined the proposition; and I was, in my best judgment, driven to the alternative of either surrendering the Union, and with it the Constitution, or of laying strong hand upon the colored element. I chose the latter. In choosing it, I hoped for greater gain than loss; but of this I was not entirely confident..."Use context to determine the meaning of the words in bold.a) Mutual agreementb) Significant otherc) Worthwhile pastimeQuestion 3Reread the following passage from "Letter to a Citizen of Kentucky":"By general law, life and limb must be protected; yet often a limb must be amputated to save a life, but a life is never wisely given to save a limb. I felt that measures, otherwise unconstitutional, might become lawful by becoming indispensable to the preservation of the Constitution through the preservation of the nation. Right or wrong, I assumed this ground, and now avow it. I could not feel that to the best of my ability I had even tried to preserve the Constitution, if, to save slavery, or any minor matter, I should permit the wreck of government, country, and Constitution altogether."How can the text often a limb must be amputated to save a life, but a life is never wisely given to save a limb best be interpreted?a) If you cut off one bad part, you run the risk of killing the entire body.b) It is often necessary to let an entire body die rather than cutting off a limb.c) It is often necessary to get rid of one bad part to save the larger whole.
