Answer:

y = 2/3x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

y = mx + b       Slope Intercept Form

Step 2:

2x - 3y = 6           Equation

Step 3:

- 3y = - 2x + 6     Subtract 2x on both sides

Step 4:

y = 2/3x - 2           Divide - 3 on both sides

Answer:

y = 2/3x - 2

Hope This Helps :)

How to solve this equation algebraically: Y=2x+1<br> 3x+4y=26
AURORKA [14]
You can substitute what y is into the second equation, so:
3x + 4(2x + 1) = 26
3x + 8x + 4 = 26
11x + 4 = 26
- 4
11x = 22
÷ 11
x = 2

y = (2 × 2) + 1
y = 5 + 1
y = 5

So you get x as 2 and y as 5, I hope this helps!

There are 5 times as many males as females on the maths course at university. What fraction of the course are male? Give your an
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'x' be number of females in the course

Number of males= 5x

total number of students= 5x+x

                                         = 6x

Fraction of male students= number of male students/total number of students

                                         = 5x/6x

                                         = 5/6

Can someone please help me with this one? I’m very confused, how can you solve for the width if the problem doesn’t tell you wha
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

A. (2x-3)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Performing the long division indicated by the perimeter expression, you find ...

perimeter = (2x -3) + (10x +6)/(x^2 +2x)

Comparing this to the formula for the perimeter ...

perimeter = 2W +2L

where L is said to be of the form (ax +b)/(x^2 +2x)

we can match terms in the perimeter expression to see that ...

2W = 2x -3

2L = (10x +6)/(x^2 +2x)

The problem doesn't ask for it, but we can see that (a, b) = (5, 3). We can also see that ...

W = (2x -3)/2 . . . . . . . matches choice A
