1/2x + 42 = 4x
-1/2x           -1/2x
------------------------
42 = 3.5x
/3.5   /3.5
------------------------
12 = x
the number is 12


explanation: 42 more than 1/2 of a number can be written as 1/2x + 42
four times a number can be written as 4x.
42 more than 1/2 of a number is equal to 4 times a number. So 1/2x + 42 = 4x.

Hope this helps :)

What is the slope of all lines parallel to the line 4x-5y+-1?
Bond [772]

Given equation of the line ,

\implies 4x - 5y +(-1) = 0

Simplify ,

\implies 4x - 5y - 1 = 0

Transpose terms to RHS ,

\implies 5y = 4x - 1

Divide both sides by 5 ,

\implies \boxed{ y =\dfrac{4}{5}x -\dfrac{1}{5}}

Now we know the slope intercept form of the line as y = mx + c we have ,

  • m =\dfrac{4}{5}

As we know that the slope of all parallel lines are same . Henceforth ,

  • m_{|| \ lines } =\dfrac{4}{5}
