Mathematics

Hatshy [7]2 years ago

Answer:

y = -2x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is y = mx + b

1. Find the slope first.

--> (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = slope

--> (-12 - -6) / (11 - 8) = (-6) / (3) = -2

2. Then, find the y-intercept (b) by plugging one of the points

--> y = -2x + b

--> -6 = -2(8) + b

--> -6 = -16 + b

--> b = 10

3. Combine

--> y = -2x + 10

I'm having trouble with algebraic fractions . 3/2n-8/3=-29/12
nadezda [96]

what we can do is hmmmm get the LCD of all fractions, and multiply both sides by that LCD, let's see, we have denominators of 2, 3 and 12, so we can use the LCD of 12, and multiply both sides by 12 to do away with the denominators.

\bf \cfrac{3}{2}n-\cfrac{8}{3}=-\cfrac{29}{12}\implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{12}}{12\left( \cfrac{3}{2}n-\cfrac{8}{3} \right)=12\left( -\cfrac{29}{12} \right)}\implies (6)3n-(4)8=(1)-29 \\\\\\ 18n-32=-29\implies 18n=3\implies n=\cfrac{3}{18}\implies n=\cfrac{1}{6}

What is Cameron's error??????
pogonyaev

Answer

Cameron forgot to do the same thing to the 9. Instead of dividing 3 by 3 and 9 by 3 he only divided 3 by 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

3/7 × 4/9

You can divide the 3 and 9 by 3 so you get 1/7 × 4/3.

Then you do 4 × 1 and 7 × 3.

Correct answer is 4/21

Jim needs to mix a medication with water to make the appropriate solution. The medications says to mix 3 oz of medication with 5
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

38 or 38.33 cups of water.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need 5 cups of water for every 3 ounces of medication. We can set up a proportion: #oz of medication/#cups of water= #oz of medication/# cups of water. We can plug in some numbers from the problem.

3/5=23/n. You can use any variable, but I'm using n for how many cups of water Jim will need for 23 ounces of medication.

We can cross multiply: 3*n=5*23.

3n=115

We divide both sides by 3.

n=38.3333333.......

Rounding to the nearest whole number, Jim will need 38 cups of water, or 38.33 cups if you're rounding to the nearest hundredth.

Hope this helps :)

Mo bisects lmn m lmn 6x-28 m lmo x+34. find m
garri49 [273]
LMO+NMO = LMN,
x+34 + NMO = 6x-28
But, MO bisects LMN, so LMO=NMO
x+34 + x+34 = 6x-28
2x+68 = 6x-28
4x = 96
x = 24
That would makem it
24 + 34 =58 T NMO = 6(24)-28
58 + nmo = 144 - 28 = 119
116- 58 = 58
