X-6=5 is the answer that I got. 6 less than a number(x) means you are subtracting 6 and is 5 means it equals 5. Hope this helps:))

X-6=5
You should read it how it is written. It is basically saying x minus 6 equals 5.

Without Graphing, Is The System Independent, Dependent, Or Inconsistent? (Equation And Answer Choices Are In Comments!)

notsponge [240]

12x +3y = 12
y = -4x +5

We can convert the first equation to the same form as the second (y=mx+b, or slope-intercept).

12x +3y = 12
3y = -12x +12
y = -4x +4

Comparing the simplified first equation y = -4x +4 to the second equation y = -4x + 5, we see that both have the same slope (m = -4), but different y-intercepts (b = 4, b = 5). This means they are parallel lines, or an inconsistent system. There are no solutions.

What is the 45th digit in the decimal equivalent of 1/7

Luden [163]

1/7 = 0.142857 since this decimal is repeating divide 45/6(number of repeating numbers) and it gives you 7.5 so you know that it repeats this sequence 7 times plus an extra 3 numbers so the 45th decimal is 2
