Hey there!
To figure out what "x" means, you can divide the numbers 126 and 14 . . .
126 divided by 14 = 9
9 x 14 = 126
9 = x
----------------
x = 9
----------------
Hope this helps you.
Have a great day!
You would have to use this equation : y2-y1/x2-x1 = slope
So it would be -13 +3/6-2= -10/4
Simplify it and you get : -5/2
Slope is -5/2
Answer:
Her final answer should have been x = 1/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Her 2 errors were that she didn't distribute the 2x to both 4 and -17 and that she made the 13 positive instead of negative when she added 4 and -17 together.
Correct solution:
8(x-3)+7=2x(4-17)
8x-24+7=8x-34x
-17=-34x
The negatives on both sides cancel each other out
x = 1/2
Answer:
0.125
Step-by-step explanation:
0.5 =1/2
Now
5/8 - 1/2
5/8 - 1*4/2*4
5/8-4/8
(5-4)/8
1/8
0.125
Answer:
Length = 11.25 and width = 3.75 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
You must mean that the length is 3 times its width.
If the the width is x then the length is 3x inches.
Perimeter = 2*length + 2*width.
2(3x) + 2x = 30
6x + 2x = 30
8x = 30
x = 3.75.
3x = 11.25.
