For finding the value of b, we must consider that Line MN passes through points M(4, 3) and N(7, 12). With this condition y = mx + b, can be written 3=4m+ b (because line passes through M(4,3) ) and 12=7m+b, b ( because line passes through M(7,12)). We have a system of equation 4m+ b=3 7m+b=12 For solving this, 4m+b- (7m+b)= 3-12, it is equivalent to -3m= -9 and then m=3, if m=3 so 4x3 +b =3 implies b= 3 -12= -9, so the value of b= -9 <span>

Solve the linear equation. 8x+32=2(25x−15)−11x8x+32=2(25x−15)−11x
Bogdan [553]
It seems like you put the same equation up there twice, but no worries! :)

8x + 32 = 2(25x - 15) - 11x

Simplify.

8x + 32 = 50x - 30 - 11x

Add like terms.

8x + 32 = (50x - 11x) - 30

Simplify.

8x + 32 = 39x - 30

Now we must subtract 32 from both sides.

8x = 39x - 30 - 32

Then, subtract 39x from both sides.

8x - 39x = -30 - 32

Simplify.

-31x = -62

Finally, divide both sides by -31.

-31x ÷ -31 = -62 ÷ -31

Simplify.

x = 2

What is the approximate area of the pizza
Dovator [93]
If you have several different sized pizzas, you can compare their areas. So the area of a pizza is the length of the crust (circumference) divided by two times the distance from the edge to the middle (radius). Mathematicians use a special number called pi to calculate the circumference of a circle.
