since the height is just a length unit, it can't be -2.3646.
The slope is 1/3
hope that help

Solution for given equation -(5-(a+1)) = 9-(5-(2-3)) is a = 7
<u>Solution:
</u>
Need to determine solution of following equation’
-(5-(a+1)) = 9-(5-(2-3))
Means need to solve the above equation for "a"
On solving operation in most internal bracket we get
-(5-(a+1)) = 9- ( 5 – ( -1))
On opening inside brackets we get,
-(5 – a – 1 ) = 9 – ( 5 +1 )
On solving remaining brackets we get
-5 + a + 1 = 9 – 6
=> a – 4 = 3
=> a = 4 + 3 = 7
=> a = 7
Hence solution for given equation -(5-(a+1)) = 9-(5-(2-3)) is a = 7
Answer:
Sam sokey 0.5 hours biking and 3.5 hours walking
Step-by-step explanation:
Here, we want to know the number of hours spent walking and biking
Mathematically; distance = speed * time
Let the number of hours spent walking be x and the number of hours spent biking be y
Mathematically;
x + y = 3 •••(i)
distance spent walking = 4 * x = 4x miles
distance spent biking = 12 * y = 12y miles
4x + 12y = 20
divide through by 2
2x + 6y = 10 ••••••(ii)
From i , x = 4-y
Substitute this into ii
2(4-y) + 6y = 10
8 - 2y + 6y = 10
8 + 4y = 10
4y = 10-8
4y = 2
y = 2/4 = 0.5 hours
The number of hours spent walking = 4-0.5 = 3.5 hours
