write the equation In point slope form of the line with slope 2/5 and passing through the point (-8,1)

1 answer:

5 0

Point-slope:

y-y1= m(x-x1)

Plug in what you know.

y1= 1 and x1= -8

y-1= 2/5(x-(-8)
y-1= 2/5(x+8)

Distribute.

y-1=.4x+ 3.2 <- that is the final answer

I hope this helps!

The diagram shows a right angle. Write an equation to determine the value of x. Solve for x.

kramer

Answer:

8x + (6x + 6) = 90°

x = 6°

Step-by-step explanation:

because it is a right angle, the sum of the angles = 90°

8x + (6x + 6°) = 90°

simplify:

14x + 6° = 90°

subtract 6° from each side:

14x = 84°

divide both sides by 14:

x = 6°

Explain (in words) what you would do to find the missing value in the equation. You do not find the missing number! Equation: ?

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

The missing value = $23\frac{1}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - Equation: ? + 59 5/8= 82 2/3

To find - Explain (in words) what you would do to find the missing value in

the equation. You do not find the missing number.

Proof -

Let the missing number = x

So, the equation becomes x + $59\frac{5}{8}$ = $82\frac{2}{3}$

⇒x = $82\frac{2}{3}$ - $59\frac{5}{8}$

= $\frac{248}{3} - \frac{477}{8}$

= $\frac{1984 - 1431}{24}$

= $\frac{553}{24}$

= $23\frac{1}{24}$

⇒x = $23\frac{1}{24}$

∴ we get

The missing value = $23\frac{1}{24}$

Explanation -

Here we have given the ? with addition of number that is equation to some number.

We just have to subtract the two numbers to find the missing value , as we do above.
