Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
To turn the word problem into an equation, when we read:
"I am thinking of a number" we write "x"
"when I double my number" we write "2x"
"and then subtract the result from 5" we write "5 - 2x"
"I get negative one" we write "-1 = 5 - 2x"
Now we solve for the number, which is x.
<em>Equation: </em>-1 = 5 - 2x
-1 = 5 - 2x
subtract 5 from both sides
-6 = -2x
divide both sides by -2
3 = x

There we go! The number is </h3><h2>
3</h2>
Answer:
50 : 6 = x : 40 is the proportion
Step-by-step explanation:
50 : 6 = x : 40
x = 50 * 40 : 6
x = 333.33
--------------------------
check
50 : 6 = 333.33 : 40
8.33 = 8.33
The answer is good
5 is the slope and 3 is the y-intercept
Answer:
x = 4
8(4) - 2 = 30
15(4) = 60
All triangles equal 180 degrees and there is already a right angle. 60 plus 0 is 90, and 90 plus 90 (or 90 times 2) is 180
60 + 30 = 90
90 + 90 = 180
