Answer:
a=5, b=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
If you simplify the equation, you get:
3ax +6 -4x -4b - 11x - 14 = 0 =>
3ax - 15x -4b -8 = 0
group together x's and constants:
(3a-15)x -8 -4b = 0
To make this 0 for all x, we have to find an a such that 3a-15 = 0 and b such that -8-4b = 0. this leads to a=5, b=-2
M = 5/2
B = -4
Y - 1 = 5/2(x - 2)
Y - 1 = 5/2x - 5
+1. +1
Y = 5/2x - 4
(I think)
Answer:
rate of motorboat: b
rate of current: c
So the rate the boat travels upstream is $b - c$, and the rate it travels downstream is $b + c$
Step-by-step explanation:
d = rt
200 = (b - c)\cdot 5
200 = (b + c)\cdot 4
b - c = 40
b + c = 50
Adding these equations, we get:
2b = 90
b = 45
So
c = 50 - 45 = 5
<u>Therefore the rate of the boat is 45kph, and the rate of the current is 5kph</u>
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
The answer is (A)
Step-by-step explanation:
By subtracting both number you will be left off with the distance between the numbers.
Edit: answer (C) is wrong because it refers to the absolute values of p and q, the absolute value of a number is equal to how many numbers that number is away from zero.
