Hey there! :)

3y + 2x = 12

To find the slope of this equation, we must turn this into slope-intercept form. Slope-intercept form is very simply : y = mx + b ; where m = slope, b = y-intercept.

Our first step should be to subtract 2x from both sides.

3y + 2x - 2x = 12 - 2x

Simplify.

3y = -2x + 12

Then, divide both sides by 3 so that we could get y by itself (which is what we call isolated in the math world).

3y ÷ 3 = (-2x + 12) ÷ 3

Simplify.

y = -2/3x + 4

So, our slope is -2/3!

~hope I helped~

Ymorist [56]

The <em>rigid</em> transformations used for each figure:

  1. Figure 5 - Reflection around x and y axes: (x, y) → (- x, - y)
  2. Figure 6 - Horizontal and vertical translations: (x, y) → (x + 1, y - 2)

<h3>What transformation rules do create the resulting images?</h3>

In this question we must determine what kind of <em>rigid</em> transformations generates each image. <em>Rigid</em> transformations are transformations applied on geometric loci such that <em>Euclidean</em> distance is conserved. Now we proceed to determine the transformation rule for each case:

Figure 5 - Reflection around the x-axis followed by reflection around the y-axis.

(x, y) → (- x, - y)

Figure 6 - Translation one unit in the +x direction and two units in the -y direction.

(x, y) → (x + 1, y - 2)

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

8 1/8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Jerry played with 3 friends today, all at different times.

Tommy = 1 7/8 hours

Nathan = 1 3/4 hours

Chris = 3 3/2 hours

How many hours did Jerry play with his 3 friends today?

Number of hours Jerry play with his 3 friends today = 1 7/8 + 1 3/4 + 3 3/2

= 15/8 + 7/4 + 9/2

= (15+14+36)/8

= 65/8

= 8 1/8 hours

Adult tickets to a play cost $2.25 each and student tickets cost $1.25 each. Suppose there are twice as many student tickets sol
Ganezh [65]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 300 adult tickets
  • 600 student tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

We can group tickets into a group that has 2 student tickets and 1 adult ticket for a price of 2($1.25) +2.25) = $4.75. The number of these groups sold is ...

  $1425/4.75 = 300

300 adult tickets and 600 student tickets were sold.
