set up an equation for this.  x will be the score of the losing team.  x+2x=96.  Then solve for x.  3x=96.  x=96/3 x=32.  So the losing team got 32 points and the winning team got 64

What is the equation of the line with the same slope as the equation x-4y=3 and the y-intercept(0,-8)?
katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

y = 1/4x -8

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line

x-4y =3

Subtract x from each side

x-4y -x = -x+3

-4y = -x+3

Divide each side by -4

-4y/-4 = -x/-4 +3/-4

y = 1/4 x -3/4

This is in the form y= mx+b where the slope is m and the y intercept is b

The slope is 1/4

We want the same slope

y = 1/4x +b

we know the y intercept is -8

y = 1/4x -8

What does x and y equal
GaryK [48]

Answer:

x=5, y=-3

Step-by-step explanation:

we can find the answer by plugging in x=3y+14 to the second equation

5(3y+14)-2y=31

simplify

15y+70-2y=31

13y=-39

y=-3

now, plug in this to the initial equation x=3y+14

x=3(-3)+14

x=-9+14

x=5

Fill in the blank. (Simplify your answer completely.) The midpoint of a line segment joining (a, b) and (c,d) is given by the fo
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The midpoint of a line segment joining (a, b) and (c,d) is given by the formula (\frac{a+c}{2},\frac{b+d}{2} )

Step-by-step explanation:

If point <em>M </em>in the figure lies midway between points P(x_{1},y_{1}) and Q(x_{2},y_{2}), point <em>M</em> is called the midpoint of segment. To find the coordinates of <em>M</em>, we average the x-coordinates and average the y-coordinates of P and Q.

So the the midpoint of the line segment with endpoints at (a,b) and (c,d) is the point with coordinates of

(\frac{a+c}{2},\frac{b+d}{2} )
