Answer:Step-by-step explanation:

the answer is 9 because inverse means oppisite and since its a additive inverse is will change to a positive and -17 - 8 = -9 since its  a additive inverse it will change to a positive which will = 9

If Gary lost 17 pounds and gained 8 pound back, then we have
 -17 pounds + 8 pounds = -9 pounds.
 Therefore the additive inverse of the change in Gary's weight is 9 pounds.
 That is, Gary lost 9 pounds of weight.

What is the equation of the line slope of 3 and passes through the point (-2, 3)?
elixir [45]

Answer:

\large\boxed{y-3=3(x+2)}\qquad\text{point-slope form}\\\boxed{y=3x+9}\qquad\text{slope-intercept form}\\\boxed{3x-y=-9}\qquad\text{standard form}\\\boxed{3x-y+9=0}\qquad\text{general form}

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of an equation of a line:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

We have the slope m = 3 and the point (-2, 3). Substitute:

y-3=3(x-(-2))\\\\y-3=3(x+2)

the point-slope form

y-3=3(x+2)        <em>use the distributive property</em>

y-3=3x+6           <em>add 3 to both sides</em>

y=3x+9

the slope-intercept form

y=3x+9           <em>subtract 3x from both sides</em>

-3x+y=9         <em>change the signs</em>

3x-y=-9

the standard form

3x-y=-9              <em>add 9 to both sides</em>

3x-y+9=0

the general form

svetlana [45]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\sf \text{The rate of the boat is } 53 \ km/h \text{, the rate of the current is }8\ km/h \ \ }

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, let's note v the rate of the boat and r the rate of the current. We can write the following

\dfrac{135}{v-r}=3=\dfrac{183}{v+r}

It means that

135(v+r)=183(v-r)\\\\135 v + 135r=183v-183r\\\\\text{ *** We regroup the terms in v on the right and the ones in r to the left***}\\\\(135+183)r=(183-135)v\\\\318r=48v\\\\\text{ *** We divide by 48 both sides ***}\\\\\boxed{v = \dfrac{318}{48} \cdot r= \dfrac{159}{24} \cdot r}

But we can as well use the second equation:

3(v+r)=183\\\\v+r=\dfrac{183}{3}=61\\\\\dfrac{159}{24}r+r=61\\\\\dfrac{159+24}{24}r=61\\\\\boxed{r = \dfrac{61*24}{183}=8}

and then

\boxed{v=\dfrac{159*8}{24}=53}

Hope this helps.

Do not hesitate if you need further explanation.

Thank you
