4x + 8y = 40

When y = 0.8
4x + 8(0.8) = 40
4x + 6.4 = 40
4x = 40 - 6.4
4x = 33.6
x = 8.4

Answer: x = 8.4

To find your answer you must substitute y for 0.8
4x + (8)(0.8) = 40
Now solve for x
====================================================================
SOLVING...

4x + (8)(0.8) = 40
4x + 6.4 = 40

Subtract 6.4 from each side
4x+ 6.4 − 6.4 = 40 − 6.4
4x = 33.6

Divide each side by 4
4x ÷ 4 = 33.6 ÷ 4
x = 8.4

Answer:

$\huge \frac{4}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\tt= > \frac{1}{3} = \frac{z}{12 } \\ \\ \tt= > \frac{1}{3} = \frac{(1 \times 4)}{(3 \times 4)} = \frac{4}{12}$

Find the slope of the line that is parallel and perpendicular -7x-2y=4

Rus_ich [418]

$\bf -7x-2y=4\implies -2y=7x+4\implies y=\cfrac{7x+4}{-2}\implies y=\cfrac{7x}{-2}+\cfrac{4}{-2} \\\\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{7}{2}} x-2\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{7}{2}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{2}{7}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{\cfrac{2}{7}}}$

now, what's the slope of a line parallel to that one above? well, parallel lines have exactly the same slope.
