Answer:
D. Subtraction property of equality
B. 6.5
Step-by-step explanation:
First blank:
The equation is x + 6.5 = 13.
To solve the equation, you want x alone on the left side, showing "x = some number." Since 6.5 is being added to x, you need to SUBTRACT 6.5. You must do the same operation to both sides of an equation, so you need to SUBTRACT 6.5 from both sides of the equation. What allows you to subtract the same number from both sides of an equation is the
<em>D. Subtraction property of equality </em>
Second blank:
Subtract 6.5 from both sides.
x + 6.5 = 13
x + 6.5 - 6.5 = 13 - 6.5
x = 6.5
<em>Answer: B. 6.5</em>
Answer:
6 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
5 3/4 + 3/4 = 5 6/4 = 1 1/2 + 5 = 6 1/2
(2y)⁴
(2y)(2y)(2y)(2y)
16y⁴
Step-by-step Answer:
What is the solution to the system of equations?
y = –3x – 2 ..............(1)
5x + 2y = 15..............(2)
Substitute (1) in (2) to give
5x + 2(-3x-2) = 15
5x-6x-4 = 15
-x-4=15
solve for x:
-4-15 = x
x=-19
Now substitute x=-19 into equation (1)
y = -3x-2 = 57-2 = 55
Therefore the solution is (-19, 55)
If the blue piece is half of the length of green, which is 12, then the blue piece would be 6cm long. 12 + 6 would represent the total length of both pieces, which is 18.
