Answer:
12x -y = -87
Step-by-step explanation:
You can start with the 2-point form of the equation of a line and manipulate it to give you the standard form.
y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1
y = (-9 -3)/(-8 -(-7))(x -(-7)) +3
y = (-12/-1)(x +7) +3
y = 12x +84 +3
-12x +y = 87 . . . . . subtract the x-term
12x -y = -87 . . . . . . make the leading coefficient positive (per standard form)
1). Multiply (5400 inches) by (1 foot / 12 inch) then by (1 mile / 5280 foot).
(See explanation at the bottom)
= (5400 inch) x (1 foot / 12 inch) x (1 mile / 5280 foot)
= (5400 x 1 x 1 / 12 x 5280) (inch - foot - mile / inch - foot)
= 0.0852 mile
2). Multiply (16 week) by (7 day/week) then by (24 hour/day)
then by (60 minute/hour) then by (60 sec/minute).
3). Multiply (54 yards) by (3 foot/yard) then by (1 meter/3.28 foot)
and then by (1000 mm/meter)
4). Multiply (36 cm/second) by (3600 second/hour) then by (1 meter/100 cm)
then by (1 mile/1609.3 meter).
5). Look up how many grams in a pound ('P')
Look up how many mL in a gallon ('G')
Multiply (1.09 g/mL) by ( 1 pound/ P gram) then by (1 gallon/ G mL)
6). Multiply (32 foot/sec) by (1 meter / 3.28 foot) then by (60 sec/minute).
Each time I told you to multiply by something, it was always a fraction
where the numerator and denominator are equal, like (60 seconds/minute)
or (1 foot / 12 inch). Since the top and bottom of the fraction are equal, the
value of the fraction is ' 1 ' , and multiplying by it doesn't change the value,
it only changes the units ... that's what this whole exercise is about.
When you multiply, KEEP the units in the product, and then, after you multiply, you can 'cancel' units out of the top and bottom of the product.
Like if you have 'feet' on top and bottom, just cross them out. When you're done, if you did it correctly, the last unit you end up with will be the one you want.
Solution:
Given:
To determine if an ordered pair is a solution, we substitute the x and y-values into the inequality and check if it is true.
Thus,
Therefore, the correct answers are selected as shown below;
To solve, make an equation. The equation would be
x represents the miles driven
to solve, subtract 4 from each side of the equation.
$32-4 = 4-4 + 2x
The equation is now
$28 = 2x
Now you divide by 2 on each side.
$28 ÷ 2 = 2x ÷ 2
simplify
14 = x
The answer is 14 miles
