Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

$n-first\ number\\\text{the second number is 6 times the first number}\\6n-second\ number\\\\\text{the sum is 21:}\\\\n+6n=21\\7n=21\qquad\text{divide both sides by 7}\\\boxed{n=3}\\\\6n=6(3)\\\boxed{6n=18}$

Answer:

Sum of the two numbers is 21 and Second number is six times the first number

x+6x = 21

7x = 21

x = 21/7

x = 3

substitute x value in 6x to find second number,

= 6x

= 6*3

= 18

Therefore first number is 3 and second number is 18

Can anyone please help me with this? I don't know how to do it.

ycow [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to fill out the graph is to find the slope.

The slope is y = 2x + 1.

Insert the x values of the graph for x in the equation to find y.

y = 2(-6) + 1 = -12 + 1 = -11. (-6, -11).

y = 2(-2) + 1 = -4 + 1= -3. (-2, -3).

Then, for finding x, just insert y.

1 = 2x + 1. Subtract 1 from both sides to isolate x.

0 = 2x. x = 0. (0, 1).

y = 2(2) + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5. (2, 5)

3 = 2x + 1. Subtract 1 from both sides.

2 = 2x. x = 1. (1, 3).

The slope of this function is 2x. The y-intercept is 1. The x-intercept is -2.

Marty is taking piano lessons. She is going to practice every afternoon. The 1st week she practiced for 11 minutes each day. The

Answer:

$m=7w+4$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear Modeling</u>

It consist is setting up a linear relationship between two variables, given some experimental data. Only 2 points are needed to set up the equation of a line, but if more than 2 points are used, then the result should use statistical approaches like linear regression to find the best-fit line.

For the question at hand, Marty practices his piano lessons 11 minutes the week #1. It provides the first point (1,11). He practices 25 minutes per day on the third week. It gives us another point (3,25). This is enough to find the equation of a line. The general formula for a line, having two points (m1,w1) (m2,w2) is

$\displaystyle m-m_1=\frac{m_2-m_1}{w_2-w_1}(w-w_1)$

Let's plug in our values

$\displaystyle m-11=\frac{25-11}{3-1}(w-1)$

Simplifying:

$m-11=7w-7$

$\boxed{m=7w+4}$

What is the slope of y=4x+5 (show work)

Mandarinka [93]

The slope is 4. It's right there in the problem. The equation underneath that is y=mx + b. M, in this case 4 or 4/1 is the slope. And 5 is the y intercept or where the line crosses the y axis.
