Most important rule of Pre- algebra and algebra, do the opposite operation.
So what you do is subtract 3/8 to isolate the variable. 1/2 = 4/8 so just do 4/8-3/8 and get 1/8 so m = 1/8
Hmm, let's see. Well a triangle's dimensions add up to 180. If both sides given add up to 14. Simply subtract 180 by 14. You get, 166. If I'm wrong, feel free to correct me on that :)
The answer to your question is 3:23
The pH of distilled water is usually LESS THAN 7, because when it contacts air CO2 gas begins dissolving into the water.
The Equation is y=+5
Why:
You want to find the equation for a line that passes through the point (-4,5) and has a slope of .
First of all, remember what the equation of a line is:
y = mx+b
Where:
m is the slope, and
b is the y-intercept
To start, you know what m is; it's just the slope, which you said was . So you can right away fill in the equation for a line somewhat to read:
y=x+b.
Now, what about b, the y-intercept?
To find b, think about what your (x,y) point means:
(-4,5). When x of the line is -4, y of the line must be 5.
Because you said the line passes through this point, right?
Now, look at our line's equation so far: . b is what we want, the 0 is already set and x and y are just two "free variables" sitting there. We can plug anything we want in for x and y here, but we want the equation for the line that specfically passes through the the point (-4,5).
So, why not plug in for x the number -4 and for y the number 5? This will allow us to solve for b for the particular line that passes through the point you gave!.
(-4,5). y=mx+b or 5=0 × -4+b, or solving for b: b=5-(0)(-4). b=5.
