Answer:

5/13

Step-by-step explanation:

At 3:00 P.M., Gage was 78 miles away from his destination, at 3:25 P.M., he was 48 miles closer to his aunt's house

Representing this information in mathematical form, we have:

x (at 3:00) = 78 miles, x (at 3:25) = x - 48 = 78 - 48 = 30 miles

At 3:25 P.M., Gage had covered a distance of 48 miles & had 30 miles left to get to his aunt's house

Fraction of mile to the house = Distance left to the house ÷ Total distance

Fraction = 30 ÷ 78 = 5/13

It means Gage was a fraction of 5/13 away from his aunt's house at 3:25 P.M.

Which of these strategies would eliminate a variable in the system of equations? \begin{cases} 6x + 5y = 1 \\\\ 6x - 5y = 7 \end
frez [133]

Answer:

Option A and B are correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to add here

6x+5y=1.

6x-5y=7

sow e will get 12x=8 , x=8/12=2/3

Option A  is correct.

If We substract bottom from furst then

6x+5y=1

-6x+5y=-7

10y=-6

y=-6/10=-3/5

we put y=-3/5 in any equation and find x

6x+5(-3/5)=1

6x=4

x=4/6=2/3

So Option B also correct.

Find the zeros of the following<br> please solve step by step<br> 1. x³+9x²+26x+24=0
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer: -4, -3, -2

Step-by-step explanation:

By inspection, we know x=-2 is a root.

We can thus rewrite the equation as

(x+2)\left(\frac{x^3 + 9x^2 + 26x+24}{x+2} \right)=0\\\\(x+2)(x^2 + 7x+12)=0\\\\(x+2)(x+3)(x+4)=0\\\\x=-4, -3, -2

Q3.  (-5)- (-2)/ (-1)- (-3) = -3/2

Use a ruler to help you graph a line whose slope is 1/3. Label this line “a”

*Answer- 1/3 is being shown for rise/run (Rise over Run, 1 being rise and 3 being run). this means that you go up one and right 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

y2-y1 *over* x2- x1. Also if you can simplify the end fraction do it but if not then leav it as it is. This is the equation that I used for the first 3 problems. Also I didnt quit understand the 1st word problem sorry! I hope this helps :v
