the second of two numbers is 6 times the first. their sum is 77. find the numbers.
---------------
second = 6*first ----------- see that?
second + first = 77
-----
Then
6*first + first = 77 --------------- sub 6*first for second
7*first = 77
first = 11
=======
second = 66
Make sense?

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If the base of a rectangle is increased by 10% and the area is unchanged by what percentage is the width decresed by and what is the formula?
-----------------
Area = L*W
x = the multiplier of the other dimension
Area = (L*x)*(W*1.1) = L*W
L*W*x*1.1 = L*W
x*1.1 = 1
x = 1/1.1 = 0.909090...
% change = 100*(1 - x)
= 9.0909...%

There isn't always "a formula"

Water is pouring into an inverted cone at the rate of 3.14 cubic meters per minute. The height of the cone is 10 meters, and the radius of its base is 5 meters. How fast is the water level rising when the water stands 7.5 meters above the base?
---------------
"when the water stands 7.5 meters above the base" implies the point is at the top, not inverted. r = h/2 if h is measured from the point of the cone.
-------------
V+=+pi%2Ar%5E2h%2F3
r = h/2

instructions are find the slopes of lines with a y-intercept of 1 tangent to the circle (x-3)^2 + y^2=4

instructions are find the slopes of lines with a y-intercept of 1 tangent to the circle (x-3)^2 + y^2=4
-------------
The radius of the circle is 2.
The center of the circle is (3,0).
The distance from the y-int @ (0,1) to the center of the circle = sqrt(10).
The tangent lines from a right angles at each tangent point --> 2 right triangles with hypotenuse = sqrt(10) and a side = 2.
--> the distance from (0,1) to the tangent points = sqrt(6).
--------
The tangent points are the intersection of the given circle and a 2nd circle centered at (0,1) with radius = sqrt(6).
=================
The angle between the y-axis and the line from (3,0) to (0,1) = acot(1/3) =~ 71.565 degs.
The angle of the right triangle at (0,1) = arcsin(2/sqrt(10)) =~ 39.232 degs
The upper tangent line makes and angle with y-axis of the sum = 110.797 degs
The angle with the x-axis = 110.797 - 90 = 20.797 degs
The slope of the line = tan(20.797) = 0.38
----------------------------
The calculations of the 2nd tangent line are similar.

Write the slope-intercept form of the line that goes through (-5,-1) and is parallel to x=0
-------------
x = 0 is the y-axis
Parallel to x = 0 is parallel to the y-axis.
--> the x value is constant
--> x = -5
The slope-intercept form is not possible, as there is no y-intercept.
