Answer: x = 0


Step-by-step explanation:

The first step would be to convert everything to one form. I'll do the fractions, since 1/3 is hard to represent in decimal.

3 1/4 + 1/2x + 1 1/3 + 5/6x = 5 11/12

Now, the fractions will be converted via GCF. 12 is easily divisible by 4, 2, 3 and 6, so that I'll be the denominator used.

3 1/4 -> 3 3/12

1/2x -> 6/12x

1 1/3 -> 1 4/12

5/6x -> 10/12x

5 11/12 will stay the same.

The new equation is:

3 3/12 + 6/12x + 1 4/12 + 10/12x = 5 11/12

Combine like terms:

4 7/12 + 1 4/12x = 5 11/12

Subtract 4 7/12 from both sides

1 4/12x = 1 4/12

Divide both sides by 1 4/12x

x= 0

What is the slope of the equation below?<br> 2y = 10x – 8<br> A.2<br> B.-8<br> C.10<br> D.5
blondinia [14]

Answer:

D) 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Divide 2 from all terms within the equation:

(2y)/2 = (10x - 8)/2

y = (10x)/2 - (8)/2

y = 5x - 4

Note the slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

y = y

x = x

m = slope

b = y-intercept.

In this case, 5 is in place of m, or your slope.

D) 5 is your answer.
