How do you solve a/7+5/7=2/7

1 answer:

4 0

$\frac{a}{7} + \frac{5}{7} = \frac{2}{7} \\ \frac{a + 5}{7} = \frac{2}{7} \\ 7(\frac{a + 5}{7}) = 7(\frac{2}{7})$
a + 5 = 2
a + 5 - 5 = 2 - 5
a = -3

Hope this helps! :)

What is the equation of the graphed linear model? y = x +

timofeeve [1]

Answer:

y = - 2x + 110

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y + mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

To calculate m use the slope formula

m = (y₂ - y₁ ) / (x₂ - x₁ )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 110) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (20, 70) ← 2 points on the line

m = $\frac{70-110}{20-0}$ = $\frac{-40}{20}$ = - 2

the line crosses the y- axis at (0, 110) ⇒ c = 110

y = - 2x + 110 ← equation of line

What is the length of each side of a square that has the same area as a rectangle that is 5.4 mm long and 2.6 mm wide? Round to

Vlad1618 [11]

Hey!

Area is equal to length × width. First find the area of the rectangle.

$5.4 \times 2.6 = 14.04$

The area of the rectangle is 14.04 mm². That means the area of the square is also 14.04 mm². In a square, all 4 sides are the same. The length and width are the same.

Try all choices and see which is the closest

$3.75 \times 3.75 = 14.06$
