LITERAL EQUATIONS: A literal equation is one consisting of all letters (or at least mostly letters). The Latin word literalis me

ans "of or belonging to letters or writing," giving the term literal equations its meaning. We can solve literal equations the same way we solve any other equation. We just need to be told which variable (letter) we are solving for. To solve a - 2 = 5 for a, we would add two to each side of the equation. To solve b - r = z for b, we would add r to each side of the equation. What would the resulting solution be ? b = z - r z = b - r r = b - z b = r + z

Answer:

D. b = r+z

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression b-r = z, we are to solve for b. To do this, we will add 'r' to both sides of the equation as shown;

b-r+r = z+r

Since -r+r = 0, substitute:

b+0 = z+r

b = z+r

Hence the resulting equation when r is added to both sides of the equation is b = z+r

Hence option D is correct

Gina rides her bike to work at an average of 10.4 miles per hour. She bikes 1.2 hours each day. How many miles does Gina ride ea
tatiyna
So 10.4mi = 1 hour

We need to find out how many miles 1.2 hours is.

1.) Well, the first step would be to multiply 1.2 on both sides of:
10.4mi = 1 hour

because that would make this number of miles is = to 1.2 hours which is wha we're looking for

1.2(10.4) mi = 1.2 hour

2.) Simplify
12.48 mi = 1.2 hour

3.) That means Gina rides 12.48 miles each day if she rides for 1.2 hours each day at a pace of 10.4 miles per hour :)

What is the equation of the line that passes through the point (-5,-4) and has a slope of -3/5
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

y= -3/5x - 7 (assuming slope-intercept form)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we see the slope. The basic template for a slope-intercept question is

y=mx + b

So, we put in -3/5 as "m" in this case, as it is the slope to get y= -3/5x +b

To find b, we can just try out the point that the equation gave us.

-3/5 * -5 = 3

Then, to get to -4 from 3, we need to subtract 7.

Then, we get our whole slope-intercept equation. y=-3/5x - 7
