Three or more points that lie on the same line are collinear points. for example let’s say points D , B and E like on line N. does this help?
Answer:
- y= -12
- x = 7
- q = -1
- x = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
1. ..............................................
- 6(y + 7) = 2(y - 3)
- 6y + 42 = 2y - 6
- 6y - 2y = -6 - 42
- 4y = -48
- y = -12
2...............................................
- 3x + 2(x - 5) = 25
- 3x + 2x - 10 = 25
- 5x = 25 + 10
- 5x = 35
- x = 7
3 . ..............................................
- 10q + 3q + 5 = 2(q - 3)
- 13q + 5 = 2q - 6
- 13q - 2q = -6 - 5
- 11q = -11
- q = -1
4. ..............................................
- 1/3(x + 6) = 2/3(x - 9)
- 3*1/3(x+6) = 3*2/3(x - 9)
- x + 6 = 2(x - 9)
- x + 6 = 2x - 18
- 2x - x = 6 + 18
- x = 24
Given :
Rain is falling at 0.5 inches per hour and 1.5 inches have already accumulated.
To Find :
How many hours must have passed if there are 5 inches of rain .
Solution :
Let , after x hours rain accumulated is 5 inches .
We know , general equation of line :
y = mx +c
Here , m = 0.5 and c = 1 .
So , equation of rain accumulated is :

Now , putting value of x = 5 hours .
We get :

Hence , this is the required solution .
Answer:
The answer is 2 1/2 or in mixed form 5/2

Answer:
x = (2c - 3b + 5) / (c - b).
Step-by-step explanation:
c(x - 2) - 5 = b(x - 3)
cx - 2c - 5 = bx - 3b Bring the terms in x to left side:-
cx - bx - 2c - 5 = -3b Bring other terms to right side:-
cx - bx = 2c - 3b + 5
x(c - b) = 2c - 3b + 5 Divide both sides by c - b:-
x = (2c - 3b + 5) / (c - b).
