Answer: 5, 8
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
The difference between 3 times a number and -8 is BETWEEN 23 and 32
Note: "difference" means subtraction --> 3x - (-8) --> 3x + 8
23 < 3x + 8 < 32
15 < 3x < 24 <em> subtracted 8 from all 3 sides</em>
--> 5 < x < 8 <em>divided 3 from all 3 sides</em>
Hello!
If a you want to find an equation of the line that is parallel to the given line, we must know that if two lines are parallel, then their slope will <em>always</em> have to be equal.
This means that the new equation must have a slope of -1/3.
Also, you would need to substitute the given point (6, 8) into the equation with the slope: -1/3 as well. Following these steps allows you to find the equation of line.
y = -1/3x + b (6, 5)
5 = -1/3(6) + b
5 = -2 + b (add 2 to both sides)
7 = b
Therefore, the equation of the line is y = -1/3x + 7.
Answer
The sum of y and z must be 1/2 x

Answer:
The street light is 20 feet tall.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question depends on a proportion. Keep your height of the object in one ratio and the length of the shadow in the other.
25/x = 75/60 Notice the height of the structure is on the left. The length of the shadow is on the right. Cross multiply
75x = 60 * 25 Combine the right
75x = 1500 Divide by 75
x = 1500/75
x = 20
The street light is 20 feet tall.
Answer:
Slope of the line = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope of a line through two points lying on the line
and
is given by,
Slope = 
From the figure attached,
Given line is passing through two points (0, 1) and (1, 3).
Therefore, slope of the line will be,
Slope = 
= 2
