You can find the slope using the following formula:
Answer:
You would need 6 1/4 cups of sugar.
Distrivute 0.2 to x and +50 and you get 0.2x+10-6 now for the other side we do the same and we get 1.2x+8 or an easier way... Let's solve your equation step-by-step.<span><span><span>0.2<span>(<span>x+50</span>)</span></span>−6</span>=<span>0.4<span>(<span><span>3x</span>+20</span>)</span></span></span>Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.<span><span><span>0.2x</span>+4</span>=<span><span>1.2x</span>+8</span></span>Step 2: Subtract 1.2x from both sides.<span><span><span><span>0.2x</span>+4</span>−<span>1.2x</span></span>=<span><span><span>1.2x</span>+8</span>−<span>1.2x</span></span></span><span><span><span>−x</span>+4</span>=8</span>Step 3: Subtract 4 from both sides.<span><span><span><span>−x</span>+4</span>−4</span>=<span>8−4 </span></span><span><span>−x</span>=<span>4 now you divide by negative x (technically it is -1x=4 so your answer is x=-4</span></span>
Answer: half the number?
If you write an equation for it:
Let the number be x
1/2x = x - 1/2x
The square root of 24 simplifys to:
√24
2√6
Since √6 is inbetween √4 and √9, it is somewhere in between 2 and 3. Really, the best option is to use a calculator.√24 is approximately 4.9. <span />
