Building a is 271 meters taller than building

Mathematics

Let a and b represent the heights of the corresponding buildings (in meters).

... a = b +271 . . . . . . . a is 271 meters taller than b

... 2b -a = 211 . . . . . . if a is subtracted from twice b, the result is 211

Use the expression for a in the first equation to substitute for a in the second.

... 2b - (b+271) = 211

... b = 482 . . . . . . . . . . . simplify and add 271

... a = b +271 = 753

Building a is 753 meters tall; building b is 482 meters tall.

(6h + 8) - (3h + 2) = 15<br> PLEASE HELP I ALSO NEED TO SHOW WORK
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

h=3

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

(6h+8)-(3h+2)=15

First, let's distribute the negative:

(6h+8)+(-3h-2)=15

Combine like terms:

(6h-3h)+(8-2)=15

Subtract or add:

3h+6=15

Subtract 6 from both sides:

3h=9

Divide both sides by 3:

h=3

And we're done!

Convert into slope-intercept form: <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=y-1%3Dm%28x-3%29" id="TexFormula1" title="y-1=m(x-3)" alt="
aliina [53]

Answer:

y=2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

First simplify: y-1=2x-6

y-1=2(x-3)

First simplify and distribute everything.

<u>y-1=2x-6</u>

So, x equals 2 because it got distributed into the numbers inside the parenthesis.  Same with the 2 and -3.  They multiplied to become -6.

Since it's y-1=2x-6, you can simplify it even more so the -1 goes to the other side and turns into positive 1.

<u>y - 1 (+ 1) = 2x -6 (+ 1)</u>

-1(+1)=0 which leaves just the variable y on the <em><u>left side</u></em>.

-6(+1)=-5 which leaves 2x-5 on the <em><u>right side</u></em>.

This results in y=2x-5.  Hope this helped ;)
