This is how I would solve it:
1st # = x 4(x+1)=3x+18
2nd # = x+1 4x+4=3x+18
4x=3x+14
x=14
To check: 15x4=60; 60-42=18. <u>1st # = 14; 2nd # = 15.</u>
This is actually pretty straightforward since the equation is already in slope-intercept form.
Slope intercept form is y = mx + b, where m and b are constants that represent the slope and y-intercept, respectively.
m = -1 and b = 4 in this equation.
Thus, the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is 4.
Answer:
x = 8/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
6 x + 8 (5 - 7) = 0
5 - 7 = -2:
6 x + -2 8 = 0
8 (-2) = -16:
6 x + -16 = 0
Add 16 to both sides:
6 x + (16 - 16) = 16
16 - 16 = 0:
6 x = 16
Divide both sides of 6 x = 16 by 6:
(6 x)/6 = 16/6
6/6 = 1:
x = 16/6
The gcd of 16 and 6 is 2, so 16/6 = (2×8)/(2×3) = 2/2×8/3 = 8/3:
Answer: x = 8/3
The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12 The factors of 15 are: 1, 3, 5, 15 <span>The factors of 35 are: 1, 5, 7, 35 The Greatest Common Factor (GCF) is: 1</span>
We can use the points (13, 11) and (14, 6) to solve.
Slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1
= 6-11/14-13
= -5/1
= -5
Therefore, the slope is -5.
Best of Luck!
