A + b = 15 ..... eq 1
a – b = 12 ...... eq 2
So a = 15 – b
Substitute in eq 2 :
15 – b – b = 12
15 – 2b = 12
–2b = 12 – 15
b = 1.5
So a = 15 – 3/2 = 13.5
4ab = 4 x 13.5 x 1.5 = 81
Answer:
y=(5/2)x+14
Use the slope formula and slope-intercept form y=mx+b to find the equation
Answer:
Simplify —————
b - a
1.1 Rewrite (b-a) as (-1) • (a-b)
Canceling Out :
1.2 Cancel out (a-b) which now appears on both sides of the fraction line.
Final result :
-1
