Answer:
-6/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Get y by itself to get the slope. So 18x+15y=90. Move 18x to the other side of the equation. Now you have 15y=-18x+90. Divide both sides by 15 to get y by itself. Now it's y= -18/15x + 6. Reduce -18/15 to the simplest fraction. You have y= -6/5x+6. Any number can replace the 6 in the equation to give you a parallel line...it's the slope that makes it parallel, not the y intercept. So y= -6/5x+10 or y=- -6/5x-1 would satisfy your parallel slope equation.
Answer:
x^-2 = 1/4
x^-1 = -1/2
x^0 = 1
x^1 = -2
x^2 = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
got it right
C=x+9, c+x=99, c=99-x
So we have two equations equal to c, c=x+9 and c=99-x, since c=c:
x+9=99-x
2x+9=99
2x=90
x=45, and since c=x+9, c=54
So Charlie weighs 54 kg and his brother weighs 45 kg.
Answer:
If both sides are integers, one side will be 4 feet and the other will be 6 feet. The other solution is the symmetrical solution (4 feet instead of 6 feet, and 6 feet instead of 4 feet).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangular blanket, that has a diagonal that measures h=7.21 feet.
The two sides of the rectangle a and b can be related to the diagonal h by the Pithagorean theorem:

Then, we can express one side in function of the other as:

Then, if we define b, we get the value of a that satisfies the equation.
A graph of values of a and b is attached.
If both side a and b are integers, we can see in the graph that are only two solutions: (b=4, a=6) and (a=4, b=6).
