X and y are the numbers
x>y

diffference is 42
x-y=42

larger is 3 less than 6 times smaller
x=-3+6y

subsitute -3+6y for x

x-y=42
-3+6y-y=42
-3+5y=42
add3 to both sides
5y=45
divide both sides by 5
y=9

sub back

x=-3+6y
x=-3+6(9)
x=-3+54
x=51

the numbers are 51 and 9

Hi!

I am not completely sure what you mean but if you are looking for the slope of a line here is the best way to find it.

Y=Mx+b

it look difficult but really it's quite easy and once you get it it's super memorable. Y will always be Y that doesn't change. The M is the slope of the line (don't let equations confuse you with different letters! the M might be different but it is always the letter next to x) and b is the y intercept (where the line crosses y). All you need to find the slope of a line is 3 points. I see here you have a graph. So what you do is count how much it's moving up each block on the graph. I would say your slope is about 1/3. Y is really easy! just find the point it crosses the y axis(horizontal axis or the one going up and down) for yours it's 0. So your answer is y=1/3x+0

Answer:

\huge\boxed{B. [1,2,3,........]}

Step-by-step explanation:

9x - 4 < 13 x - 7

Combining like terms

=> -4 + 7 < 13x-9x

=> 3 < 4x

Dividing both sides by 4

=> x > \frac{3}{4}

=> x > 0.75

This means that x can be any number <u>that is greater than 0.75</u>

So, The solution set = [1,2,3,........]

Please help me with this math question I really need help ;/. I'll give brainliest if u help.
Darya [45]

Step-by-step explanation: You have to substitute the numbers in for x & y

(0, -5): YES

3x - 4y - 8 = 12

3(0) - 4(-5) - 8 = 12

0 + 20 - 8 = 12

20 - 8 = 12

12 = 12


(4, -2): YES

3x - 4y - 8 = 12

3(4) - 4(-2) - 8 = 12

12 + 8 - 8 = 12

20 - 8 = 12

12 = 12


(8, 2): NO

3x - 4y - 8 = 12

3(8) - 4(2) = 12

24 - 8 = 12

16 = 12


(-16, -17): YES

3x - 4y - 8 = 12

3(-16) - 4(-17) - 8 = 12

-48 + 68 - 8 = 12

20 - 8 = 12

12 = 12


(-1, -8): NO

3x - 4y - 8 = 12

3(-1) - 4(-8) = 12

-3 + 32 = 12

29 = 12


(-40, -34): NO

3x - 4y - 8 = 12

3(-40) - 4(-34) - 8 = 12

-120 + 136 - 8 = 12

16 - 8 = 12

8 = 12


Hope this help you!!! :)

The functions f(x) and g(x) are graphed. Which represents where f(x) = g(x)? f(2) = g(2) and f(0) = g(0) f(2) = g(0) and f(0) =
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

The given graph shows the relationship between the f(x) and g(x).

Since the problem is to find the points where f(x) becomes equal to g(x) then we will be focusing only to the x-axis and ignore the points of y-axis.

Out of the four choices, the correct answer for the given functions of x will be f(2) = g(2) and f(0) = g(0), f(0) and g(0) is located at the origin. So the points where the curve and line are intersecting is at f(2) and g(2) and the other point is at f(0) and g(0), neglecting the y-axis.
