1.44 divided by 16 which is 0.09 and to check answer you take 0.09 and multiply by 15 and you get 1.44
Answer:
y = 4x - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Calculate m using the slope formula
m = 
with (x₁, y₁ ) = E(4, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = F(2, - 4)
m = 
= 
= 4 , then
y = 4x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation
Using (4, 4), then
4 = 16 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 16 = - 12
y = 4x - 12 ← equation of line
This is a ratio problem; the ratio of the length to width is constant (and therefore equal):
4 /6 = 15 / x
Now, with a ratio, we may do any allowable algebra operation: cross-multiply, invert both sides, multiply or divide both sides by the same amount, etc.
Let's cross-multiply:
4x = (15)(6)
x = 90/4
x = 22.5 in.
For example, the additive inverse of 12 is –12. The additive inverse of –3 is 3. Formally, the additive inverse of x is –x. Note: The sum of a number and its additive inverse is 0.
