Hi!

<h3>Writing the equation</h3>
  • one number is 36 less

x - 36

  • than another number

x - 36 = y

  • if the sum of the numbers is 104

<u>x + y = 104</u>

  • find the two numbers.

---------------------------------------------------------

<h3>Solving for x</h3>
  • Put the value of y in the second equation.

x + x - 36 = 104

  • Simplify

2x - 36 = 104

  • Add 36 to both sides

2x - 36 + 36 = 104 + 36

2x = 140

  • Divide by 2 on both sides

2x/2 = 140/2

<u>x = 70</u>

-------------------------------------------------

<h3>Solving for y</h3>

70 + y = 104

70 - 70 + y = 104 - 70

<u>y = 34</u>

-------------------------------------------------

<h2>The two numbers are 70 and 34</h2>

Hope this helps! :)

Write an equation in standard form of the line that passes through the given point and has the given slope (I need an answer ASA
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The equation of the lines is,

1. (4, -1); m = 3 : - y = 3x - 13

2. (-8, 0); m = -4 :- y = -4x - 24

3. (-6, -10); m = 1/6 :- y = -1/6x - 9

<h3>What is an equation of the line?</h3>

An equation of the line is defined as a linear equation having a degree of one. The equation of the line contains two variables x and y. And the third parameter is the slope of the line which represents the elevation of the line.

The general form of the equation of the line:-

y = mx + c

m = slope

c = y-intercept

Slope = ( y₂ - y₁ ) / ( x₂ - x₁ )

The equation of the lines will be,

y = mx + c

y = 3x + c

-1 = 4 x 3 + c

c = -13

y = 3x - 13

y = mx + c

y = -4x + c

0 = -4 x -8 + c

c = -24

y = -x -24

y = mx + c

y = 1/6x + c

-10 = -1 + c

c = -9

y = -1/6x - 9

Therefore, the equation of the lines is,y = 3x - 13 y = -4x - 24 and y = -1/6x - 9.
