-2m-6+19+(-4m)+9=0..........

1 answer:

7 0

-6m+13=0 (put all like terms together)
-6m=-13 (subtracted 13 from both sides to leave m alone)
m=2.17 (divided both sides by -6)

Explain the error Tina says that 6:8 is equivalent to 36:64 what did tina do wrong

brilliants [131]

Tina said that 6:8 is equal to 36:64.
It's wrong. It should be 48:64. Because just like a fraction, whatever you multiply in the bottom, you do to the top.

in class, matthew stated "i think that a negative is like an opposite. That is why multiplying a negative times a negative equal

sveticcg [70]

Yes and no. A negative number and it's opposite are 'integers.' Yes, a negative and a negative multiplied together give you a positive. The two negative signs cancel out making it positive. But no, a positive and a positive multiplied together do not give you a negative. When you subtract positive numbers you can get a negative, but not when multiplying. If you were to do a positive times a negative it would be negative because the positive can't cancel it out. Example: -3 · -3 = 9. [] 3 · 3 = 9. [] -3 · 3 = -9. Other than the positive number part, the statement is true about the negatives. I hope that helped!

15. Construct the slope-intercept form equation of the line passing through (-5,23) and (10,-5).

Radda [10]

Answer:

15y = -28 x + 205.

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form of equation is y = mx + c where m is slope and c is the y intercept.

Now slope of line passing through points (-5, 23) and (10, -5):

$m = \frac{y_{2} - y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} } = \frac{-5 -23}{10 + 5} = \frac{-28}{15}$

Now equation of line:

y = mx + c

substituting the value of m in above expression,

$y = -\frac{28}{15} x + c$

Now, since the line is passing through the point (-5, 23) therefore, x = -5 and y = 23. By substituting these values in above equation,

$23 = -\frac{28}{15} \times (-5) + c$

$23 = \frac{28}{3} + c$

$c = 23 - \frac{28}{3} = \frac{69 - 28}{3} = \frac{41}{3}$

So equation of line in slope intercept form:

$y = -\frac{28}{15} x + \frac{41}{3}$

Further solving,

15y = -28 x + 205.

Solve the equation x + 0.7 = 1 - 0.2x in two different ways.Then check your answer.Show your work!

expeople1 [14]

Simplifying
x + 0.7 = 1 + -0.2x

Reorder the terms:
0.7 + x = 1 + -0.2x

Solving
0.7 + x = 1 + -0.2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '0.2x' to each side of the equation.
0.7 + x + 0.2x = 1 + -0.2x + 0.2x

Combine like terms: x + 0.2x = 1.2x
0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.2x + 0.2x

Combine like terms: -0.2x + 0.2x = 0.0
0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + 0.0
0.7 + 1.2x = 1

Add '-0.7' to each side of the equation.
0.7 + -0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.7

Combine like terms: 0.7 + -0.7 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.7
1.2x = 1 + -0.7

Combine like terms: 1 + -0.7 = 0.3
1.2x = 0.3

Divide each side by '1.2'.
x = 0.25

Simplifying
x = 0.25

I only know 1 way.
