Answer:

\large\boxed{a=\dfrac{3b}{2}=\dfrac{3}{2}b=1.5b}

Step-by-step explanation:

7a-2b=5a+b\qquad\text{add}\ 2b\ \text{to both sides}\\\\7a-2b+2b=5a+b+2b\\\\7a=5a+3b\qquad\text{subtract}\ 5a\ \text{from both sides}\\\\7a-5a=5a-5a+3b\\\\2a=3b\qquad\text{divide both sides by 2}\\\\\dfrac{2a}{2}=\dfrac{3b}{2}\\\\a=\dfrac{3b}{2}

What is the average (arithmetic mean) of the first 90 measurements in a certain list of 92 measurements? (1) the average of the
marishachu [46]
The sum of all the measurements is just the average times the number.

\bar x = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^n x_i

\sum_{i=1}^n x_i = n \bar x

So if the average of all 92 is 7 the sum of those is 92 \times 7

The average of the last two is 7.2 so their sum is 2 \times 7.2

That means the sum of the first 90 is 92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2

so the average of the first 90 is

 \dfrac{92 \times 7 - 2 \times 7.2}{90} = 6.99556 cm

Are these lines parallel perpendicular or neither
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

start but putting each line into the standard line format

2x-y=-5

-y=-2x-5

y=2x+5

x+2y=-6

2y=-x-6

y=-(1/2)x-3

if lines are parallel the slopes would be the same. 2 is not equal to -1/2

if lines are perpendicular the slope of one would be the opposite inverse of the other.

negative inverse of 2 = - (1/2)

so the lines are perpendicular
