Answer:

The value of slope m = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

x = -2 + 4t

and y = 1 + 4t

Solving the both equations

x +2 = 4t

=> t = (x+2)/4 eq(1)

y-1 = 4t

=> t = (y-1)/4 eq(2)

Putting eq(1) = eq(2) as left hand side of both equations are same

(x+2)/4 = (y-1)/4

Cross multiplying

4(x+2) = 4(y-1)

4x + 8 = 4y -4

4x +4y = -4 -8

4x + 4y = -12

4(x+y) = -12

x+y = -12/4

x+y = -3

y = -x -3

The slope intercept form of line is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope. Comparing with y = -x-3

The value of slope m = -1

Isoke is solving the quadratic equation by completing the square.10x2 + 40x – 13 = 0 10x2 + 40x = 13 A(x2 + 4x) = 13What is the

Elina [12.6K]

we have

$10x^{2} + 40x - 13 = 0$

Group terms that contain the same variable, and move the constant to the opposite side of the equation

$10x^{2} + 40x =13$

Factor the leading coefficient

$10(x^{2} + 4x) =13$ ----------> the value of A is $10$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$10(x^{2} + 4x+4) =13+40$

$10(x^{2} + 4x+4) =53$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$10(x+2)^{2} =53$

$10(x+2)^{2} =53 \\ (x+2)^{2} =\frac{53}{10} \\ \\ x+2=(+/-)\sqrt{\frac{53}{10}} \\ \\ x1=-2+\sqrt{\frac{53}{10}}\\ \\ x2=-2-\sqrt{\frac{53}{10}}$

therefore

the answer is

the value of A is $10$

To get the answer we need the formula or source.

The question in another way if 4cm=1.2km, what is the 10cm=--------

first, you have to use the crisscross.

4cm=1.2km

10cm= x it is variable

then, 4xx= 1.2kmx10cm

4x=12km

4x/4= 12/4

x=3km

the sugar is sold at rupees 5.4 per kg at a loss of 10% at what price relative is sold per kg to earn a profit of 20%

ladessa [460]

Answer:

the price sold per kg to earn a profit of 20% is 7.2 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the price sold per kg to earn a profit of 20% is shown below:

But before that the normal price per kg is

= 5.4 per kg × 100 ÷ 90

= 6 per kg

Now for 20% profit, the price per kg is

= 6 × (1 + 0.20)

= 6 + 1.2

= 7.2 kg

hence, the price sold per kg to earn a profit of 20% is 7.2 kg
