B-3a=2 3B- 6a=12 solve algebraicly show steps

1 answer:

3 0

B - 3A = 2
3B - 6A = 12

(2)B - (6)A =4
3B - 6A = 12

Subtract

-B = -8
B = 8

Plugin 8 for B

8 - 3A = 2
8 = 3A + 2
6 = 3A
2 = A

(Double checking)
3(8) - 6A = 12
-6A = 12-24 = -12
- 6A = -12
Divide by -6
A= 2
It works

A = 2. B = 8. Hope this helps

Answer:

8:30 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that x is minutes since 6:20 PM, and y is position in miles.

Since Jonathan drives at a constant rate, the position vs time graph is linear. Two points on the line are (0, 75) and (20, 85). The slope of the line is:

m = Δy / Δx

m = (85 − 75) / (20 − 0)

m = ½

So the equation of the line is:

y = ½ x + 75

We want to find x when y is 140.

140 = ½ x + 75

65 = ½ x

x = 130

So 130 minutes after 6:20 PM is when Jonathan's position will be 140 miles. 130 minutes is 2 hours and 10 minutes. So the time will be 8:30 PM.

What is the height of this isosceles triangle?

erastova [34]

Answer:

height ≈ 11.9 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Construct a perpendicular bisector from the vertex to the base, thus splitting the triangle into 2 right triangles.

Using the sine ratio in one of these right triangles, then

sin48° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ ( the opposite is the height h )

sin48° = $\frac{h}{16}$ ( multiply both sides by 16 )

16 × sin48° = h , thus

h ≈ 11.9 ( to the nearest tenth )

For the past 25 days, jonathon has read for n minutes each day. His total number of minutes read is 875. Write an equation to ex

liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Required equation is: 25n = 875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number of minutes Jonathon read per day

Now

He read for 25 days and total 875 minutes

The equation will be:

$25n = 875$

We can solve this equation to find the number of minutes each day

Using Division property of Equality

$\frac{25n}{25} = \frac{875}{25}\\n = 35$

Hence,

Required equation is: 25n = 875
