Answer:

y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

|10-5y|=20

Since the absolute value is isolated, we can then separate the equations

For absolute values, there is a positive and negative when we remove the absolute values.

10-5y = 20 10-5y= -20

Subtract 10 from each side

10-10-5y = 20-10 10-10-5y= -20-10

-5y = 10 -5y = -30

Divide by -5

-5y/-5 =10/-5 -5y = -30/-5

y =-2 y =6

Natasha spent 1\dfrac121 2 1 1, start fraction, 1, divided by, 2, end fraction hours on the beach. She fell asleep for \dfrac3

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

1 and 1/8 hours or

Step-by-step explanation:

Natasha spent one and a half hours on the beach, which can be rewritten as 3/2 hours. Out of that time, she spent 3/4 sleeping. The total time she spent sleeping on the beach is determined by the product of the amount of time she spent on the beach by the fraction of that time she spent asleep:

$T=\frac{3}{2} * \frac{3}{4}\\T=\frac{9}{8} \\T=1 + \frac{1}{8}$

Natasha was asleep on the beach for 1 and 1/8 hours or 1 hour 7 minutes and 30 seconds.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form of<br> the line that passes through (-6,4) and<br> (-1,2).

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(-6 , 4) & (-1 , 2)

Slope = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$= \frac{2-4}{-1-[-6]}\\\\= \frac{-2}{-1+6}\\\\= \frac{-2}{5}$

m = -2/5 & (-6 , 4)

y -y1 = m(x -x1)

$y - 4 = \frac{-2}{5}(x - [-6])\\\\y - 4 = \frac{-2}{5}(x + 6)\\\\y - 4 = \frac{-2}{5}x + 6*\frac{-2}{5}\\\\y = \frac{-2}{5}x -\frac{12}{5}+4\\\\y=\frac{-2}{5}x-\frac{12}{5}+\frac{4*5}{1*5}\\\\y=\frac{-2}{5}x-\frac{12}{5}+\frac{20}{5}\\\\y=\frac{-2}{5}x+\frac{8}{5}$
