Answer:

Divide both sides by -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtracting 4 from each side of the equation gives us

4-5x-4 = 59-4

-5x = 55

The last number we have to cancel is -5, by division:

-5x/-5 = 55/-5

x = -11

This Would Be Divide Both Sides By 5. You Have To Isolate The Variable To One Side Of The Equation So It Is By Itself.

Dafna11 [192]

A-4=B
2+C=B
A+B+C=13

A=b+4
C=B-2
Plug in to equation 3
(B+4)+B+(B-2)=13
Rearrange
B=11/3
A=(11/3)+4= 23/3
C=(11/4)-2= 3/4

Help its 11:28 due at 11:59 :((

Alja [10]

Answer:

y = 0.87x + 0.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Euros as a function of dollars means that euros is y and dollars are x.

We are given 2 points: (4, 3.5) and (10, 8.72)

slope = (8.72 - 3.5)/(10 - 4)

slope = 5.22/6 = 0.87

y = 0.87x + b

3.5 = 0.87(4) + b

b = 0.02

y = 0.87x + 0.02

On the checkerboard, 4/10 of the pieces left are red. What fraction of the pieces left are black? Write the equation.

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

The fraction of black pieces left is $\frac{6}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

On the checkerboard , The fraction of red pieces left = $\frac{4}{10}$

Let The fraction of black pieces left = x

So, The fraction of black pieces left = x = 1 - $\frac{4}{10}$

Or, x = $\frac{10-4}{10}$

Or, x = $\frac{6}{10}$

Hence The fraction of black pieces left is $\frac{6}{10}$ Answer
