5/14 is the answer. I'll do my best bud
Answer↑

Steps↓
Convert 2 1/2 to an improper fraction:
2 + 2+ 1 over 2

Once you add the numbers, that will be 5/2.

Now, multiply that with 1/7:
5/2 • 1/7

Your answer will be 5/14

Therefore, Rock A weighs 5/14 pounds

In two or more complete sentences describe the process in writing the equation of a line given two points?
Alona [7]

Answer:

First, we have to find slope. We do that by using slope formula. Once we have found slope, we have start to write our equation in slope-intercept form. To get the complete equation, we need to find the y-intercept. To do so, we simply plug in one of the coordinates given to us into our half-formed equation. We should be able to find the y-intercept and then have our complete linear equation once we write it all out.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Slope Formula: m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

PLEASE HELP<br><br>divide. (3x-2)(x-4)-(x-4)(6-5x)<br>/(4-x)(8x-1)​
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

x = 39/74 - sqrt(1817)/74 or x = 39/74 + sqrt(1817)/74

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(x - 4) (3 x - 2) - ((6 - 5 x) (x - 4) (8 x - 1))/(4 - x) = 0

Simplify and substitute y = 4 - x.

(x - 4) (3 x - 2) - ((6 - 5 x) (x - 4) (8 x - 1))/(4 - x) = -434 + 257 (4 - x) - 37 (4 - x)^2

= -37 y^2 + 257 y - 434:

-37 y^2 + 257 y - 434 = 0

Divide both sides by -37:

y^2 - (257 y)/37 + 434/37 = 0

Subtract 434/37 from both sides:

y^2 - (257 y)/37 = -434/37

Add 66049/5476 to both sides:

y^2 - (257 y)/37 + 66049/5476 = 1817/5476

Write the left hand side as a square:

(y - 257/74)^2 = 1817/5476

Take the square root of both sides:

y - 257/74 = sqrt(1817)/74 or y - 257/74 = -sqrt(1817)/74

Add 257/74 to both sides:

y = 257/74 + sqrt(1817)/74 or y - 257/74 = -sqrt(1817)/74

Substitute back for y = 4 - x:

4 - x = 257/74 + sqrt(1817)/74 or y - 257/74 = -sqrt(1817)/74

Subtract 4 from both sides:

-x = sqrt(1817)/74 - 39/74 or y - 257/74 = -sqrt(1817)/74

Multiply both sides by -1:

x = 39/74 - sqrt(1817)/74 or y - 257/74 = -sqrt(1817)/74

Add 257/74 to both sides:

x = 39/74 - sqrt(1817)/74 or y = 257/74 - sqrt(1817)/74

Substitute back for y = 4 - x:

x = 39/74 - sqrt(1817)/74 or 4 - x = 257/74 - sqrt(1817)/74

Subtract 4 from both sides:

x = 39/74 - sqrt(1817)/74 or -x = -39/74 - sqrt(1817)/74

Multiply both sides by -1:

Answer:  x = 39/74 - sqrt(1817)/74 or x = 39/74 + sqrt(1817)/74
