Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up the slope formula to solve for the unknown:

\frac{6-s}{-7-(-4)}=-5 which simplifies to

\frac{6-s}{-7+4}=-5 which simplifies a bit more to

\frac{6-s}{-3}=-5 Multiply both sides by -3 to get rid of the fraction, leaving you with:

6 - s = 15 and

-s = 9 so

s = -9

Doors for the small cabinets are 11.5 inches long. Doors for the large cabinets are 2.3 times as long as the doors for the small
tiny-mole [99]
The size of the large cabinets door = 2.3 * 11.5 = 26.45 inches
the board size in inches = 10 1/2 * 12 = 126 inches
number of doors = 126 / 26.45 = 4.76
so the number of doors = 4 doors

Solve the system.<br> 3x + 4y = 7<br> 2x-y=1<br> What does x and y equal
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

x=1 y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use the elimination method.
3x+4y=7
2x-y = 1 (multiply both sides by 4)
8x-4y=4
3x+4y=7

(add both equations together)
11x=11
x=1
Plug x=1 into either of the equations
2(1) - y=1
2-y=1
2=1+y
y=1

180+8x=160+6x help me find x
lianna [129]

Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

180 + 8x = 160 + 6x

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Subtract 6x on both sides: 180 + 2x = 160
  2. Subtract 180 on both sides: 2x = -20
  3. Divide both sides by 2: x = -10

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

180 + 8(-10) = 160 + 6(-10)

180 - 80 = 160 - 60

100 = 100

Priya and Han both factored the number 80. Priya says they should both get the same answer even if they started with different f
meriva

Answer:

Priya is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

The factors of 80 is 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

The factor pairs of 80 are

1 x 80, 2 x 40, 4 x 20, 5 x 16 and 8 x 10

If Priya picks 2 x 40, then it's prime factorisation will be, 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5 = 2⁴ x 5.

If Han picks, 5 x 16 = 5 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 5 x 2⁴ = 2⁴ x 5. This is the same.

Therefore, Priya is correct, because the factors of 80 are always the same, therefore which ever you start with, you'd always get the same answer.
