Answer:
3 is greater than -4, but the line with slope -4 is steeper than the line with slope 3.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 is greater than -4, so strictly speaking, a slope of 3 is greater than a slope of -4.
On the other hand, the steepness of a line depends on the absolute value of the slope.
|3| = 3
|-4| = 4
Since 4 > 3, the line with slope -4 is steeper than the line with slope 3.
Answer: 3 is greater than -4, but the line with slope -4 is steeper than the line with slope 3.
Answer:
24 years old
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the age of Blake be x and the age of Heather by y then...
x=7+y
7+x+7+y=55
Notice we are adding additional 7s because the question states "in 7 years"
Simplify the second equation...
7+x+7+y=55
14+x+y=55
Subtract 21 from both sides
x+y=41
Solve using substitution (substitute 7+y for x since x = 7+y)
7+y+y=41
Combine like terms
2y+7=41
Subtract 7 from both sides
2y=34
Divide both sides by 2
y=17
x=7+17=24
Blake is 24 years old now
Answer:
Is it 2?
Step-by-step explanation:
36/8=4.5 which is how many millimeters there are in a meter. So 6 meters *4.5 would be 27 millimeters. The length of the blue print is 27 millimeters
