To solve an equation with a rational (fraction) coefficient you need to multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal (invert the fraction - flip it).

\frac{1}{6}x =4 The reciprocal of 1/6 is 6/1 or 6
6( \frac{1}{6} x)= 6(4)  The product of reciprocals equals 1 
1x = 24
x = 24

What is the slope of a line whose graph is parallel to the graph of -3x+y=2?
liq [111]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if the lines are parallel they have the same gradient.

rearrange the equation to make y the subject and then use the m value as gradient.

-3x=2-y

-3x-2=-y

y=-(-3x-2)

y=3x+2

therefore m=3

slope is 3

Help with A and B plzzzz
Digiron [165]

a.) The height of the closet is 96 inches, and you want to have 4 rows, so you divide the total height 96 by 4

96 ÷ 4 = 24

So each cube organizer can be a height of 24 inches since it divides out evenly


b.) Each shoe box is 4 1/2 inches, because there are 3 boxes that are stacked on top of each other, you can multiply 4 1/2 by 3, or you can do 4 1/2 + 4 1/2 + 4 1/2.

4 1/2 + 4 1/2 + 4 1/2 = 12 3/2 = 13 1/2

The total height of the 3 boxes is 13 1/2
