Subtracting means adding the opposite.Subtracting -5.1 means adding the opposite of -5.1 which is +5.1.
2.8 - (-5.1) = 2.8 + (+5.1) = 2.8 + 5.1 = 7.9

What is the equation of the line with an x-intercept of -1 and a y-intercept of 2? y = 2x - 2 y = - 2x 2 y = 2x 2
guajiro [1.7K]
X intercept = -1,  y = 0           (-1, 0)

<span>y intercept = 2,  x = 0           (0, 2)
</span>
slope between (-1, 0) and (0, 2):

slope = (2 -0)/(0 - -1) =  2/1 = 2,           m = 2

Using point   (-1, 0)   x₁ = -1, y₁ = 0

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 0 = 2*(x - -1)

y = 2(x + 1)

y = 2x + 2

Mr. Wong cuts a coil of wire into two pieces in the ratio of 3:4. The length of the longer piece is 32 centimeters. What is the
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

56 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the lengths of the pieces is 3:4.

The longer piece is 32 cm.

We set up a proportion to find the length of the smaller piece.

Let the length of the smaller piece be x.

3 is to 4 as x is to 32

3/4 = x/32

4x = 3 * 32

4x = 96

x = 24

The smaller piece is 24 cm.

24 cm + 32 cm = 56 cm
