Solving linear equation mean calculating the unknown variable from the equation.

Let the linear equation : y = mx + c

If we draw the above equation on Cartesian Coordinates , it will be a straight line with :

<em>m → gradient of the line</em>

<em>( 0 , c ) → y - intercept</em>

Gradient of the line could also be calculated from two arbitrary points on line ( x₁ , y₁ ) and ( x₂ , y₂ ) with the formula :

$\large {\boxed{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}}}$

If point ( x₁ , y₁ ) is on the line with gradient m , the equation of the line will be :

$\large {\boxed{y - y_1 = m ( x - x_1 )}}$

<em>Let us tackle the problem!</em>

$\texttt{ }$

This problem is about Directly Proportional.

<em>There were 8 engineers under every team leader.</em>

$\texttt{1 Team Leader} \rightarrow \texttt{8 engineers}$

$\texttt{15 Team Leader} \rightarrow 15 \times \texttt{8 engineers} = \boxed{\texttt{120 engineers}}$

$\texttt{ }$

<em>There were 5 project managers for every 50 engineers.</em>

$\texttt{50 engineers} \rightarrow \texttt{5 project managers}$

$\texttt{120 engineers} \rightarrow (120 \div 50) \times \texttt{5 project managers} = \boxed{\texttt{12 project managers}}$

Alan used 9 as an estimate for 3 7/10 + 5 4/10. He added and got 9 1/10 for the actual sum. Is his answer reasonable?

Len [333]

Answer:Yes, he is answer is reasonable

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you plus 3 7/10 with 5 4/8.

Then , when you get 8 11/10 you do add mixed number.

Finally, you get the answer that is 9 1/10

What is the value of b in the equation (y)*

KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

b = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the exponent rule that $\frac{1}{x^{n}} = x^{-n}$

In this case, $\frac{1}{y^{24}} = y^{-24}$

Set that equal to $(y^{b})^{4}$ :

$(y^{b})^{4} = y^{-24}$

Apply the exponent rule that $(x^{m})^{n} = x^{mn}$ so now you get:

$y^{4b} = y^{-24}$

Since the base is y for both sides of the equation, just set the exponents equal to each other and solve for b.

4b = -24

divide each side by 4 to get:

b = -6
