A. The first equation in slope-intercept form is y = -0.5x + 3. The second equation in slope-intercept form is y = 0.6x - 2.
B. The graph of the two equations is attached below.
C. The solution of the system of equation is (4.545,0.727)
A. To write the equations in slope-intercept form (y = mx + b), where "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept, we need to isolate "y" on one side of each equation.
1. 2x + 4y = 12
First, isolate "y" by subtracting 2x from both sides:
4y = -2x + 12
Next, divide both sides by 4 to get "y" by itself:
y = (-2x + 12) / 4
Simplify the equation:
y = -0.5x + 3
So, the first equation in slope-intercept form is y = -0.5x + 3.
2. 3x - 5y = 10
First, isolate "y" by subtracting 3x from both sides:
-5y = -3x + 10
Next, divide both sides by -5 to get "y" by itself:
y = (-3x + 10) / -5
Simplify the equation:
y = 0.6x - 2
So, the second equation in slope-intercept form is y = 0.6x - 2.
B. To graph the pair of linear equations, plot the y-intercept (where x = 0) and use the slope to find other points.
1. Graph the equation y = -0.5x + 3:
Plot the y-intercept at (0, 3).
Use the slope -0.5 to find another point; for example, if x = 2, then y = -0.5(2) + 3 = 2.
2. Graph the equation y = 0.6x - 2:
Plot the y-intercept at (0, -2).
Use the slope 0.6 to find another point; for example, if x = 3, then y = 0.6(3) - 2 = 0.
C. To estimate the solution to the system of equations, look for the point where the two lines intersect. This point represents the x and y values that satisfy both equations simultaneously. From the graph, we can interpret that the solution of the system of equation is (4.545,0.727)

The shadow of a 265m long building would be b. 151 m
A ratio is a comparison between two similar quantities in simplest form.
Proportions are of two types one is the direct proportion in which if one quantity is increased by a constant k the other quantity will also be increased by the same constant k and vice versa.
In the case of inverse proportion if one quantity is increased by a constant k the quantity will decrease by the same constant k and vice versa.
Given, Ms. Kraus is 1.75 m tall. When her shadow is 1 m.
Let the shadow of a 265 m tall building be 'x' m.
Therefore by the ratio proportion method.
1.75 : 1 : : 265 : x.
1.75/1 = 265/x.
1.75x = 265.
x = 265/1.75.
x = 151.42 Or 151 m.

That's the right answer on edge
Answer:
1 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
All this is, is division. You do 61/4 dived by 5. To divide fractions you flip the numerator and denominator of the second number and multiply them.
25/4 *1/5
Therefore the answer is 25/20 which is 1 and 5/20
That can be simplified to 1 and 1/4.
Answer:
a)7x - 10
b) 70 g
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
Mass of 1st chemical which was mixed = 10g
Mass of 2nd chemical which was mixed = 2x
Mass of 3rd chemical which was mixed = 5x-20
So total mass of the the mixture which was formed after mixing all the 3 chemicals are =
10 + 2x + 5x - 20
=> 7x - 10
b)
Mass of the mixture = 235 g
From (a) , we know that
7x - 10 = 235
=> 7x = 235 + 10 = 245
=> x = 245 / 7 = 35
Hence x = 35
We also know that mass of the 2nd chemical was = 2x.
So putting the value of x gives :-
2 × 35 = 70 g
Answer:
There are 27,720 ways to select the committee
Step-by-step explanation:
First, it is necessary to know how many ways are there to select 3 members, if there are 9 members of the mathematics department. This can be found using the following equation:
Where nCk gives as the number of ways in which we can select k elements from a group of n elements. So, replacing n by 9 and k by 3 members, we get:
So, there are 84 ways to select 3 members from 9 members of the mathematics department.
At the same way, we can calculate that there are 330 ways to select 4 members from the 11 that belong to the Computer science department as:
Finally the total number of ways in which we can form a committee with 3 faculty members from mathematics and 4 from the computer science department is calculated as:
9C3 * 11C4 = 84 * 330 = 27,720
