Variable x is ryans miles
amy-ryan=answer
40-31=x
x=9
ryan ran 9 miles
hope this helps
40-31=x is the equation

Well if Amy ran 31 miles more than Ryan, and she ran 40 miles all together, than you simply just subtract 31 from 40.  Write it on paper like this:

      40
    - 31
    -------
you cant take 1 from 0 so instead you "borrow" from the number next to it which would be the 4. you never take more than 1 from a number when borrowing. so take 1 from 4, place the 1 by the 0 now, making the 4 a 3 and 0 a 10. now you can subtract the 1 from the 10, making it a 9. then you subtract 3 from 3 and the answer you get is 9.
    
 
I hope this helped!

Write the equation of the line given the slope and a point through the line passes
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

1.) Y = 5/3 X + 4

2.) Y = 9/4 X - 27/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the slope and the coordinate, linear equation of a line can be expressed by using general linear equation. Which is

Y = MX + C

Where the

Slope M = 5/3

Coordinate = (-3,-1) in which

X = -3, Y = -1

Substitute X, Y and M into the general linear equation to achieve C

-1 = 5/3(-3) + C

-1 = - 5 + C

C = 5 - 1

C = 4

Substitute C and M back into the general linear equation.

Therefore, the equation of the line given the slope and a point through the line passes 5/3, and (-3,-1) to be

Y = 5/3 X + 4

2.) Also,

Slope M = 9/4

Coordinate = (3,0) where X = 3, Y = 0

Substitute X, Y and M into the general linear equation to obtain C

0 = 9/4 (3) + C

C = - 27/4

Substitutes C and M back into the general linear equation

Therefore, the equation of the line given the slope and a point through the line passes 9/4 and (3,0)

Y = 9/4 X - 27/4

Kelvin claims that a pol yhedron can have 30 edges , 18 faces and 12 vertices . Do you agree with him ? Explain your answer .
AURORKA [14]
Number of faces + (Number of vertices - Number of edges) = 2
So plugging in the numbers it would then be 
18+(12-30)=2
18-18=2
0=2
Kelvin would be wrong and I disagree with him. (Because ...*plugin work cited above*)
