X<y
y is 1 more than 2 times the smaler
y=1+2 times x
y=1+2x

3 times y is bigger than 5 times x by 10
3y=5x+10
subsitute
y=1+2x
3(1+2x)=5x+10
3+6x=5x+10
subtract 3 from both sides
6x=5x+7
subtract 5x from both sides
x=7
subsitute
y=1+2x
y=1+2(7)
y=1+14
y=15

x=7
y=15

An equilateral triangle has perimeter P. The length of one side is P/3. Which expression is equivalent to the length on one side
irina1246 [14]

Answer: 3\times \dfrac{P}{3}=P

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The perimeter of one equilateral triangle is P

The lengths of the equilateral triangle are equal

Suppose x is the length of each side

\therefore 3\times x=P\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{P}{3}

i.e.

\Rightarrow 3\times \dfrac{P}{3}=P

Find the ordered pairs for the x- and y-intercepts of the equation 3x − 2y = 18 and select the appropriate option below.
olasank [31]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Y intercept:

Simply substitute all the x values with 0:

When x = 0:

3(0) - 2y = 18

Move the - 2y over to the other side making it a +2y:

0 = 18 + 2y

Move the +18 over to the other side making it a -18:

-18 = 2y

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{-18}{2} = \frac{2y}{2}

-9 = y

So y intercept is:

<h3> (0 , -9)</h3>

X - intercept:

Simply substitute all the Y's with 0:

3x - 3(0) = 18

3x = 18

Divide both sides by 3:

\frac{3x}{3}  = \frac{18}{3}

x = 6

So the X intercept is:

<h3>(6 , 0)</h3>

This means that your guess of B is correct.

Trey read 10 pages in 25 minutes at at this rate how many pages will he read and 45 minutes
Sholpan [36]
Trey will read 18 pages in 45 minutes.

This is because he read 2.5 pages a minute. 25/10 = 2.5
so if we 45/2.5 = 18

I need help with math homework #2 algebra
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

A. (0, -2) and (4, 1)

B. Slope (m) = ¾

C. y - 1 = ¾(x - 4)

D. y = ¾x - 2

E. -¾x + y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Two points on the line from the graph are: (0, -2) and (4, 1)

B. The slope can be calculated using two points, (0, -2) and (4, 1):

slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{1 -(-2)}{4 - 0} = \frac{3}{4}

Slope (m) = ¾

C. Equation in point-slope form is represented as y - b = m(x - a). Where,

(a, b) = any point on the graph.

m = slope.

Substitute (a, b) = (4, 1), and m = ¾ into the point-slope equation, y - b = m(x - a).

Thus:

y - 1 = ¾(x - 4)

D. Equation in slope-intercept form, can be written as y = mx + b.

Thus, using the equation in (C), rewrite to get the equation in slope-intercept form.

y - 1 = ¾(x - 4)

4(y - 1) = 3(x - 4)

4y - 4 = 3x - 12

4y = 3x - 12 + 4

4y = 3x - 8

y = ¾x - 8/4

y = ¾x - 2

E. Convert the equation in (D) to standard form:

y = ¾x - 2

-¾x + y = -2
