Twice a number is one

deff fn [24]3 years ago

For this case we must propose a linear equation.

Let "x" be the variable that represents the unknown number.

So, we have:

2x: Represents twice the number

2x = 1: Represents that twice the number is equal to one.

We clear the value of "x":

We divide between "2" on both sides of the equation:

\frac {2x} {2} = \frac {1} {2}\\x = \frac {1} {2}

Answer:

x = \frac {1} {2}

would the answers be 0.5? i'm not sure but i tried. have a great day.

cuz half (x2) of a number (x) is (=) one..

2x=1

0.5=x

0.5x2=1

Which of the following is a point slope equation of the line below (10,5)(2,2)
salantis [7]
Point slope form follows the equation y-y₁=m(x-x₁), so we want it to look like that. Starting off with m, or the slope, we can find this using your two points with the formula \frac{ y_{1}  -y_{2} }{ x_{1} - x_{2} }. Note that y₁ and x₁ are from the same point, but it does not matter which point you designate to be point 1 and point 2. Thus, we can plug our numbers in - the x value comes first in the equation, and the y value comes second, so we have
\frac{5-2}{10-2} = \frac{3}{5} as our slope. Keeping in mind that it does not matter which point is point 1 and which point is point 2, we go back to  y-y₁=m(x-x₁) and plug a point in (I'll be using (10,5)). Note that x₁, m,  and y₁ need to be plugged in, but x and y stay that way so that you can plug x or y values into the formula to find where exactly it is on the line. Thus, we have our point slope equation to be y- 5= \frac{3}{5} (x-10)
