Answer:3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
short story has 32 pgs
novel has 416 pgs
Step-by-step explanation:
a novel (N) has 13 times as many pages as a short story (x) so, N = 13X
total pages is the equation N + x = 448
plug the equation for N into this
13x + x = 448, combine like terms
14x = 448, divide both sides by 14
x = 32. so now we know that the short story has 32 pages. subtract that from 448. and the novel has 416 pages.
Answer:
5x - 8y = -48
Step-by-step explanation:
Move 5/8x to the y side to get (-5/8)x + y = 6. Multiply both sides by -8 to get 5x - 8y = -48.
Answer: Parallel: y=-2/7x-2 1/7 Perpendicular: y=7/2x+13
Step-by-step explanation:
2x+7y=14
Subtract 2x from both sides.
7y=-2x+14
Divide both sides by 7 to isolate y.
y=-2/7x+2
Parallel:
Plug in x and y with same slope as the original.
-1=-2/7(-4)+b
Solve for b:
-1=8/7+b
-2 1/7=b
y=-2/7x-2 1/7
Perpendicular:
Plug in x and y with the negative inverse of the original slope.
-1=7/2(-4)+b
Solve for b.
-1=-28/2+b
-1=-14+b
13=b
y=7/2x+13
