4 = (r-2) t

8 = (r+2) t

4 = (r-2) * [8/(r+2)]

4 = (8r-16)/ (r+2)  . . .multiply by 2


4r + 8 = 8r - 16

4r = 24

r = 6

hope this helps

#10 -1/3m - 7 = 5 Solve the equation
Dima020 [189]
We have the following equation:
 -1/3m - 7 = 5
 From here, we must clear the value of m.
 We have then:
 -1/3m = 5 + 7
 -1/3m = 12
 1/3m = -12
 m = - (3) * (12)
 m = -36
 Answer:
 
The value of m is:
 
m = -36

Find the solution to the system. Write your solution as an ordered pair (x,y) with no spaces, no solution, or infinitely many. x
maxonik [38]

Answer:

The solution is (15, 11)  There is only one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve this system using substritution.  In the second equation replace x with 2y - 7, obtaining:

4(2y - 7) + y = 71, which simplifies as follows:

8y - 28 + y = 71, or

9y = 99.  then y must be 11.  If y is 11, then x = 2y - 7, or x = 2(11) - 7 = 15

The solution is (15, 11)  There is only one solution.
