The best answer for the question is C - The equation is not true for any value of x.
The reason for this is if we subtract 3x from both sides, there are no variables left. since there are no variables left, we know since first grade that 8 does not equal to -5....with that being true, there is no value we can assign to x to make this a true statement.
Answer:
The weight of the block that Katie has is 16 1/3 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Katie has: 4 full cement blocks and 4/6 (or 2/3 ) of the normal size of a cement block</u>
For one full block, it weighs 3 2/4 ( or 1/2) pounds, if you want to find the answer of the question, you need to multiply the weight with the cement blocks that Katie have.
<u>First do the four full cement blocks:</u>
4 * 3 2/4 = ?
4 * 14/4 = ?
Cancel the 4 that is being multiplied and the 4 that is being divided by 14.
= 14.
<u>Now do the 4/6 (or 2/3) cement block:</u>
2/3 * 3 2/4 = ?
2/3 * 14/4 = ?
Multiply the fractions together:
= 28/12
= 2 1/3
<u>Finally, you add up the full blocks and the 2/3 cement block to get your answer:</u>
2 1/3 + 14 = 16 1/3
The weight of the block that Katie has is 16 1/3 pounds
Answer:
-31/26
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope
m= ( y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= ( 15 - -16)/(-7 - 19)
= ( 15+16)/(-7-19)
= 31/ -26
-31/26
<span>Use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve. This will be a right triangle:
=
Let the slope = the hypotenuse = c
Let one side = a=8
Let the other side =b =15
Plug-in the values and solve for the c-term
Check you answer by plugging the value of "c" back into the orignial equation and solve.
