Make a proportion:
5/15=1/x
Cross multiply:
15=5x
Divide both sides by 5
x=3

It's cost 3 because 15 divided by 5 is 3. so 3

543,982 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand

Bezzdna [24]

Hello! :)

543,982 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand would be 500,000. Because the digit 4 is less than 5, it would be 600,000. If the digit where the 4 is was 5 or more, it would round to 600,000,

543,982 to the nearest hundred is 500,000.

Hope this helped you!

Answer:

21... 27.... 38...

Step-by-step explanation:

Add prime numbers to the number in alternate.

4 + 3 = 7

5 + 5 = 10

7 + 7 = 14

10 + 11 = 21

14 + 13 = 27

3. Rewrite -2x + 3y = 6 in slope intercept form.

zaharov [31]

The equation in slope-intercept form is:

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+2$

Further explanation:

The standard slope-intercept form is:

$y=mx+b$

Given equation is:

$-2x+3y=6$

In order to bring the equation in slope-intercept form we have to isolate y on left hand side of equation

So,

Adding 2x on both sides

$-2x+3y+2x=6+2x\\3y=2x+6$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3y}{3}=\frac{2x+6}{3}\\y=\frac{2x+6}{3}$

Simplifying

$y=\frac{2x+6}{3}\\y = \frac{2x}{3}+\frac{6}{3}\\y=\frac{2}{3}x+2$

The equation in slope-intercept form is:

$y=\frac{2}{3}x+2$
