Answer:

a = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a multi-step equation using the distributive property and rational coefficents (fractions).  The first step is to complete the distributive property on both sides of the equation and multiply each term in the expression in parenthesis by the constant on the outside.  (3/4 x 2a) - (3/4 x 6) +1/2 = (2/5 x 3a) + (2/5 x 20).  When we multiply and simplify, we get 3/2a - 9/2 + 1/2 = 6/5a + 8.  Next step is to combine like terms:  3/2a  - 8/2 = 6/5a +8.  We then need to isolate the variable by using inverse operations:  3/10a = 12, then solve for 'a' by multiplying both sides by the reciprocal (10/3) to get a = 40.

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Not true.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whole numbers are integers that are 0 or greater than 0.  Since 0 is a whole number and x > 0 does not include 0, the statement is not true. Only the sign ≥ includes 0.

y=mx+b

slope formula

y2-y1/x2-x1

slope of line passing through (3.29,-9.19) & (3.29,4.72)

UNDEFINED

line perpendicular to y=3x-7 & passes through (3,5)

y-5 = -1/3(x-3)

slope of perpendicular lines

negative reciprocals (flip and change signs)

Terry is skiing down a steep hill. Terry's elevation E(t)

in feet after t seconds is given by E(t) = 2000 − 90t.

Write a complete sentence describing Terry's starting elevation and how it is changing over time.

Terry starts at an elevation of 2000 feet and descends at 90 feet per second.

If the graphs of two linear functions are perpendicular, describe the relationship between the slopes and the y-intercepts.

slope: negative reciprocals of one another.  

y-intercept: There is no relationship.
