We can use the distributive property to set up an expression that is equal to this problem.
14 times 8 is 112
14 times -6 is -84x
14 times 12 is 168
(If you don't know the distributive property ask and I can explain it)
We can combine that together to get:
112 +168 -84x
Or, condense it further:
280-84x is equivalent to 14(8-6x+12)
Answer:
y=
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal gradients(slopes) so the slope of your new line would be 1/2. Then you use the point to find the new y-intercept
y=mx+b
2=
(8)+b
2=4+b
B=-2
y=
Answer:7 is I _9and 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us assume the number of turtles = x
Then
Number of frogs = x + 4
Number of crayfish = 2x + 3
Total number of turtles and crayfish = 54
Then we can write the equation as
x + 2x + 3 = 54
3x + 3 = 54
3x = 54 - 3
3x = 51
x = 51/3
= 17
Then
The number of frogs = x + 4
= 17 + 4
= 21
So there are 21 frogs in the pond that has been counted by Ramon.
