3(x+y)=y, if (x,y) is a solution to the equation above and y cannot equal to zero what is the ratio x/y

Answers

Answer 1
*Given
3(x+y)=y
y is not equal to zero

*Solution 

1. The given equation is 3(x+y) = y and we are tasked to find the ratio between x and y. Distributing 3 to the terms in the parenthesis, 

                        3(x+y) = y
                      3x + 3y = y

Transposing 3y to the right side OR subtracting 3y from both the left-hand side and the right-hand side of the equation would give

                              3x = -2y

Dividing both sides of the equation by 3, 

                                x = (-2/3)y

Dividing both sides of the equation by y, 

                              x/y = -2/3

Therefore, the ratio x/y has a value of -2/3 provided that y is not equal to zero. 
                             


Answer 2

The ratio, x/y in the equation, if y ≠ 0 is: x/y = -2/3.

What is the Solution of an Equation?

Solution of an equation is the value of a variable or two variables that makes an equation true.

Given:

3(x+y)=y

We are required to find the ratio, x/y if y ≠ 0.

Thus:

3(x+y)=y

Open bracket

3x + 3y = y

Subtract 3y from both sides

3x = y - 3y

3x = -2y

Divide both sides by 3

x = -2y/3

Divide both sides by y

x/y = -2/3

Therefore, the ratio, x/y in the equation, if y ≠ 0 is: x/y = -2/3.

Write an equation of the line passing through each of the following pairs of points.

a) (−10, 4), (2, −5)

b) (5, 7), (−6, −3)

Answers

a) First find the slope of the two coordinates given.

Slope = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1

Substitute the values of the coordinates. It doesn't matter which coordinate is x1 or x2 as long as thereby value corresponds.

Slope = -5 - 4 / 2 - (-10)

Slope = -9 / 12

Slope = -3/4

Then, plug in either of the coordinates into the equation of a line.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 4 = -3/4(x - (-10)

y - 4 = -3/4(x + 10)

y - 4 = -3/4x - 7.5

y = -3/4x - 3.5


Check if using the other coordinate makes a difference.

y - (-5) = -3/4(x - 2)

y + 5 = -3/4x + 1.5

y = -3/4x - 3.5

The equation of a line for these coordinates is:

y = -3/4x - 3.5


2) Just apply the same concept for the second one :)

The required equation of the line passing through the coordinates  (−10, 4), (2, −5) is 4y+3x = -14

The required equation of the line passing through the coordinates (5, 7), (−6, −3) is 11y-10x = -27

The formula for finding the equation of a line is expressed as:

[tex]y-y_0=m(x-x_0)\\[/tex]

Given the coordinates (−10, 4), (2, −5)

Get the slope:

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{-5-4}{2-(-10)} \\m=\frac{-9}{12}\\m=\frac{-3}{4}[/tex]

Get the required equation

[tex]y-4=-3/4(x+10)\\4(y-4)=3(x+10)\\4y-16=-3x-30\\4y + 3x = -30+16\\4y+3x = -14\\[/tex]

b) For the equation of the line with the coordinates (5,7) and (-6, -3)

Get the slope

m = -3-7/-6-5

m = -10/-11

m = 10/11

The required equation will be:

y - 7 = 10/11(x-5)

11(y-7) = 10(x-5)\

11y - 77 = 10x - 50

11y - 10x = -50 + 77

11y - 10x = -27

Hence the required equation of the line passing through the coordinates (5, 7), (−6, −3) is 11y-10x = -27

While catching fireflies, you and a friend decide to have a competition. after mm minutes, you have (3m+13)(3m+13) fireflies and your friend has (4m+6)(4m+6) fireflies.
a. how many fireflies are caught each minute during the competition?

Answers

To find for the number of fireflies caught in a minute, we simply look at the equation. The equation is linear and takes the form y = slope * x + b

where slope is also equivalent to the fireflies caught each minute.

So the equation of you and your friend is: (where y is the total fireflies caught)

 

you:

y = 3 m + 13

 

your friend:

y = 4 m + 6

 

So the fireflies caught each minute is:

you: 3

your friend: 4

 

So a total of 7 fireflies each minute combined

Alberto, Carlos and Maria share an inheritance of $54000 in the ratio of 3: 4: 5
What fraction of the the money does Alberto get?

Answers

Do 3x+4x+5x=54000
12x=54000
X=4500
Now im not sure which is alberto but if they are in the order as listed he would be 3.
So alberto = 3x
Alberto= $13500

Alberto gets [tex]\( \frac{1}{4} \)[/tex] of the inheritance.

To find out the fraction of the money Alberto gets, we first need to find out how much of the total inheritance each part of the ratio represents.

The total parts in the ratio are [tex]\(3 + 4 + 5 = 12\)[/tex].

Alberto's share is [tex]\(3\)[/tex] parts out of [tex]\(12\)[/tex].

So, Alberto's share of the inheritance is [tex]\( \frac{3}{12} \)[/tex] of the total amount.

To simplify this fraction, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is [tex]\(3\)[/tex]:

[tex]\( \frac{3}{12} = \frac{1}{4} \)[/tex]

Therefore, Alberto gets [tex]\( \frac{1}{4} \)[/tex] of the inheritance.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST-The number of pollinated flowers as a function of time in days can be represented by the function.

f(x)=(3)x/2



What is the average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day between days 4 and 10?



Enter your answer in the box.

Answers

Final answer:

The average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day between days 4 and 10 is calculated by finding the values of the function on days 4 and 10, subtracting these values, and dividing by the number of days between 4 and 10. The result is an average increase of 39 flowers per day.

Explanation:

Calculating the Average Increase in Pollinated Flowers

To find the average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day, we need to evaluate the function f(x) = (3)x/2 at days 4 and 10 and then find the difference between these two values. First, let's calculate the number of flowers pollinated on day 4.

f(4) = (3)4/2 = (3)2 = 9

Now, let's calculate the number of flowers pollinated on day 10.

f(10) = (3)10/2 = (3)5 = 243

The difference between these two values is:

243 - 9 = 234

Lastly, to find the average increase per day between days 4 and 10, we will divide this difference by the number of days between 4 and 10, which is 6 days (10 - 4 = 6).

Average increase per day = 234 / 6 = 39

Therefore, the average increase in the number of flowers pollinated per day between days 4 and 10 is 39 flowers.

Jack invests $500 at a certain annual interest rate, and he invests another $2000 at an annual rate that is one-half percent higher. if he receives a total of $85 interest in 1 year, at what rate is the $500 invested?

Answers

Final answer:

The $500 was invested at an annual interest rate of 3%.

Explanation:

Let's assume the interest rate for the $500 investment is x %. Therefore, the interest rate for the $2000 investment would be (x + 0.5) %, since it is one-half percent higher.

The total interest received is $85. So, we can set up the equation:
$500(x/100) + $2000((x + 0.5)/100) = $85

Simplifying and solving the equation, we get:
5x + 20(x + 0.5) = 85
5x + 20x + 10 = 85
25x = 75
x = 3

The $500 was invested at an annual interest rate of 3%.

Staci is attending a music festival. The ticket to the festival costs 87.96. Staci plans to purchase 30.00 t-shirts from the event for close friends. She is taking 200.00 to the festival . What is the maximum number of t-shirts Staci can purchase?

Answers

Initial cash on hand : $200.00
Ticket cost : $87.96
T-shirt cost per piece: $30.00

The first thing Staci needs to do is to deduct the cost of the ticket from her money.

$200  - 87.96 = $112.04

Stacy has the extra amount of 112.04 to purchase t-shirts. Since, each t-shirt costs $30. To know the number of shirts she can buy, she must divide the difference by 30.

$112.04 / $30 = 3.73

Based from the quotient, Stacy can buy 3 t-shirts.

$30 * 3 = $90 total cost of the tshirts.

$112.04 - 90 = $22.04

After buying the ticket and 3 tshirts, Staci has an excess of $22.04 from her $200.

Hope this helped

Final answer:

Staci can purchase a maximum of 3 T-shirts after buying her festival ticket, given she brings $200.00 and each T-shirt costs $30.00.

Explanation:

To calculate the maximum number of T-shirts Staci can purchase at the music festival, we can follow these steps:

Subtract the cost of the festival ticket from the total amount of money Staci is taking to the festival. This will give us how much money she has left for the T-shirts.

Divide the remaining amount by the cost of one T-shirt to find out the maximum number of T-shirts she can buy.

So for the first step:

Staci has $200.00 and the ticket costs $87.96, leaving her with $200.00 - $87.96 = $112.04.

For the second step:

Each T-shirt costs $30.00, so we divide $112.04 by $30.00, which gives us 3.734.

Since Staci cannot buy a fraction of a T-shirt, we round down to the nearest whole number, which is 3.

Therefore, the maximum number of T-shirts Staci can purchase is 3.

An electronics store makes a profit of $25 for every portable DVD player sold and $55 for every DVD recorder sold. The manager’s target is to make at least $225 a day on sales of the portable DVD players and DVD recorders. Write an inequality that represents the number of both kinds of DVD players that can be sold to reach or beat the sales target. Let p represent the number of portable DVD players and r represent the number of DVD recorders.

Answers

$25 for every portable DVD sold
let p be portable DVD, then the total profit for selling p numbers of portable DVD is given by 25p

$55 for every DVD recorder sold
let r be DVD recorder, then the total profit for selling r numbers of DVD recorder is given by 55r

We want at the minimum a profit of $225 a day, so we want 25p + 55r to be at least 225

The inequality is 25p + 55r ≥ 225

An inequality that represents the number of both kinds of DVD players that can be sold to reach or beat the sales target is [tex]25p+55r\geq225[/tex].

To determine the inequality that represents the number of portable DVD players (p) and DVD recorders (r) that need to be sold to achieve the target profit of at least $225 per day, we can use the information provided about the profits from selling each item.

The store makes a profit of $25 for every portable DVD player sold and $55 for every DVD recorder sold. This can be represented by the following inequality:

[tex]25p+55r\geq225[/tex]

Here, p represents the number of portable DVD players sold.

Here, r represents the number of DVD recorders sold.

This inequality ensures that the total profit from selling portable DVD players and DVD recorders meets or exceeds the manager’s target of $225 per day.
