-2/3y - 3/4 = 5

Add 3/4 to both sides.

-2/3y = 5 + 3/4

Simplify.

-2/3y = 5 3/4

Multiply both sides by -3/2.

-3/2 × -2/3y = 5 3/4 × -3/2

Simplify.

y = 23/4 × -3/2

Simplify.

y = -69/8 AND y = -8 5/9

~Hope I helped!~

Two angles are supplementary angles if the sum of their measures is​ 180°. find two supplementary angles such that the measure o
charle [14.2K]
Let the measure of the second angle be x.
The first angle has measure 3x - 34.
The sum of the measures is 180.

x + 3x - 34 = 180

4x - 34 = 180

4x = 214

x = 53.5

The second angle has measure 53.5 deg.

3x - 34 = 3 * 53.5 - 34 = 160.5 - 34 = 126.5

The measure of the first angle is 126.5 deg.

Answer: The measures are 126.5 deg and 53.5 deg.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form and then in standard form for each line described. y-intercept -2; x-intercept 5
Xelga [282]
Hello
the line passes by A ( 0 ; -2)  and B (5 ; 0) equation : y = ax+b
a is a slop : a = (yb - ya)/(xb -xa)
a = (0+2)/(5-0)
a =2/5
y = (2/5)x+b
if x=5 and y= 0
0 = (2/5)(5)+b
b= - 2
the equation is : y = (2/5)x-2

X=3y + 1<br> 2x + 4y =12
Alika [10]

Answer:

the solution is (4, 1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The goal here is to "solve this system of linear equations."  You need to share that along with the equations.

We can begin the solution by substituting 3y + 1 for x in the second equation:

2(3y + 1) + 4y = 12

Performing the multiplication, we get 6y + 2 + 4y = 12, or 10y = 10.

Then y must be 1.

Substituting 1 for y in the first equation, we get x = 3(1) + 1 = 4

Thus, the solution is (4, 1).
