What is the answer to 0.5(4a+6b)

1 answer:

8 0

The way we simplify this is by using the distributive property and multiply every term by 0.5. When we do this we get 2a+3b

14. The table below represents an inverse

Mandarinka [93]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let xy = k, where k is the constant of variation.

By using values of x and y in the table,

we see that (2)(48) = (4)(24) = (12)(8) = 96.

Hence k = 96, which is our answer.

The perimeter of Raul's picture frame is 108 centimeters. The length of the picture frame is 18 centimeters. What is the width o

o-na [289]

Perimeter of a rectangle= 2(length)+2(width)

Data:
Perimeter=108 cm
length=18 cm

therefore:
108 cm=2(18 cm)+2(width)
108 cm=36 cm+2 (width)
2 width=108 cm -36 cm=
2 width=72 cm
width=72cm/2
width=36 cm

Answer: the width of the picture frame would be 36 cm.

Direction: Solve each of the following system of linear equations graphically then check, if the system of linear equations has

lora16 [44]

Answer:

The solution is (0, 2) or x = 0, y = 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a system of linear equations graphically entails graphing the lines and then finding the point where the lines intersect. This point of intersection will be the solution to the system of equations.

Getting these linear equations into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b, where m is the line's slope and b is the line's y-intercept) makes them a lot easier to graph, so let's make sure that both lines are in slope-intercept form.

The first line isn't in slope-intercept form, so we can rewrite it as:

x + y = 2

y = -x + 2 (Subtract x from both sides of the equation to isolate y)

The second line technically isn't in slope-intercept form, so we can rewrite it as:

y = 2 - 3x

y = -3x + 2 (Commutative Property of Addition)

Now, we can graph the lines to find the solution to the system.

To graph y = -x + 2, draw a line with a slope of -1 (since m = -1) and a y-intercept of (0, 2) (since b = 2). This is the red line on the graph.

To graph y = -3x + 2, draw a line with a slope of -3 (since m = -3) and a y-intercept of (0, 2) (since b = 2). This is the blue line on the graph.

Looking at the graph below, we see that the lines intersect at (0, 2), so this is our answer.

To check if this point is a solution to the system of equations, simply substitute the x and y-coordinates of the point into the equations. If the point satisfies all of the equations, then it is a solution to the system.

In (0, 2), x = 0, and y = 2. Substituting these values into the first equation gives us 0 + 2 = 2, which simplifies to 2 = 2. This is a true statement, so (0, 2) satisfies the first equation. Substituting x = 0 and y = 2 into the second equation gives us 2 = 2 - 3 * 0, which simplifies to 2 = 2. This is also a true statement, so (0, 2) satisfies the second equation, and therefore is a solution to the system of linear equations. Hope this helps!
