If 18 is added to a certain number and the sum is divided by 6, the result is 1 more than 14 of the original number. Find the or
Katyanochek1 [597]
The original number is 72 


(18+x)/6 = 1+14 
1/6x + 3 = 1 + 14 (Distribute)
1/6x + 3 = (1+14) (Combine Like Terms)
1/6x + 3 = 15 
        - 3 = -3          (Subtract 3 From Both Sides)
1/6x = 12 
(1/6x)*6 = 12 * 6  (Multiply Both Sides By 6)
x = 72

Determine if the following system of equations has no solutions, infinitely many
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

infinitely many solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 6y = -5

3x + 18y = -15

Multiply the first equation by 3

3(x + 6y) = -5*3

3x + 18y = -15

The two equations are identical.  This means they have infinite solutions along the line x+6y = -5

A dolphin is 42 feet underwater and ascends at a constant rate for 14 seconds until it reaches the surface. Identify and interpr
Cloud [144]
Ok so, based on the graph lets say that x = seconds and  y = depth of dolphin. the interception in both points is when they are at 0 i.e when x is equals 0 and y equals 0. So At 0 seconds, the dolphin is 42 feet below the surface. So we say that x = 0, y = -42 and then the y intercepts = -42 so the point of interception is(0 (seconds),-42(depth of the dolphin)) When the clock says it's 14 seconds, the dolphin is even with the surface (0 below the surface this time). So we say that x = 14, y = 0. In this case The x intercept = 14 (14,0). But we need to calculate The slope with the formula= (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = 42/14 = 3. Therefore, the formula for this line is y = 3x - 42.

<em>Find points from graph.</em>

Point (0, 0)

Point (1, -2)

<u>Step 2: Find slope </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    m=\frac{-2-0}{1-0}
  2. Subtract:                       m=\frac{-2}{1}
