Hello, I'll try to make this as easy to understand as possible, anyways, let's begin:

First, we know that 3 is a bigger number than 2 1/2, and since it's negative, it means they lost weight, therefore...

Jenna lost more weight than Sarah.

Hope this helped! c:

A 51 foot piece of wire is cut into 3 sections so that the first section is three times as long as the second section and the se

kirill [66]

Answer:

The length of the longest section x = 36 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Total length of the wire = 51 ft

Let first section of wire = x

Second section of wire = y

Third section of wire = z

According to given data

x = 3 y & y = 4 z

Total length of the wire = x + y + z = 51

$y + 3 y + \frac{y}{4} = 51$

$\frac{17}{4} y = 51$

y = 12

x = 3 × 12 = 36

$z = \frac{y}{4} = \frac{12}{4} = 3$

Therefore the length of the longest section x = 36 ft

If a+b=9 and ab=18,find the value of a and b.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Given:

a + b = 9

=> a = 9 - b

Given:

a x b = 18

=> (9 - b) x b = 18

=> 9b - b^2 = 18

=> b^2 - 9b + 18 = 0

=> (b - 3)(b - 6) = 0

=> b = 3 => a = 6

=> b = 6 => a = 3

Hope this helps

Find the point-slope form. Then use that to find the slope-intercept form

umka2103 [35]

$\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&&(~ 5 &,& 10~) 
% (c,d)
&&(~ 8 &,& 16~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{16-10}{8-5}\implies \cfrac{6}{3}\implies 2
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-10=2(x-5)\implies y-10=2x-10
\\\\\\
y-=2x-10+10\implies y=2x$
