Answer:
The slope of this line is -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2x - 5y =9
-5y = -2x + 9 (Subtract 2x from each side)
y= -2x + 14 (add 5 to each side)
-2 is the slope
ED = x - 5 <em>given</em>
DG = 4x - 38 <em>given</em>
ED = DG <em>definition of midpoint</em>
x - 5 = 4x - 38 <em>substitution</em>
-5 = 3x - 38 <em>subtraction property of equality (subtracted x from both sides)</em>
33 = 3x <em>addition property of equality (added 38 to both sides)</em>
11 = x <em>division property of equality (divided 3 from both sides)</em>
ED = x - 5 → ED = 11 - 5 → ED = 6 <em>substitution</em>
since ED = DG, then DG = 6 <em>transitive property</em>
ED + DG = EG <em>segment addition property</em>
6 + 6 = EG <em>substitution</em>
12 = EG <em>simplified like terms</em>
Answer: 12
Answer:5 1/3 times
Step-by-step explanation:
Take 12 and divide it by 3 to get the number of slices per quarter. Then multiply the answer you got by four. The answer is 16.
