Solve the following equation for x to find the total number of people who became members of a social networking site for a certa
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

x = 360

Step-by-step explanation:

Reorder the terms:

x = 72 + 0.8x

Solving

x = 72 + 0.8x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-0.8x' to each side of the equation.

x + -0.8x = 72 + 0.8x + -0.8x

Combine like terms: x + -0.8x = 0.2x

0.2x = 72 + 0.8x + -0.8x

Combine like terms: 0.8x + -0.8x = 0.0

0.2x = 72 + 0.0

0.2x = 72

Divide each side by '0.2'.

x = 360

Simplifying

x = 360

evablogger [386]

Answer:

a) 3/2 or 1.5

b) 2/3 or ≈.66

Step-by-step explanation:

AB corresponds to DE because they are both the longest sides of their respective triangles.

a) The scale factor would be what you would multiply 8 by to get 12. 12/8 is 3/2 or 1.5

b) The scale factor would be what you multiply 12 by to get 8. 8/12 is 2/3 or ≈.66

Write a linear equation that is parallel to
san4es73 [151]

Answer:

2y=11 - 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that is parallel shares the same gradient thus

2y= -5x - 8

y = -5/2x- 4

gradient m = -5/2

substitute value of m and the co-ordinates into a new linear equation

y = mx + c

-9 = (-5/2)(8) + c

c = 20-9 = 11

thus y = -5/2x + 11

2y=11 - 5x
