Answer:

y=2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

well first you have to move the -8x to the other side where the -16 is. by doing so, the -8x will turn into a POSTIVE 8x. than your problem should look like (4y=8x-16). now that your problem is like that, you want "y" to be alone. so, you divide the 4 by every number. (so you would do 4y/4, 8x/4, and -16/4). than your final product would be: y=2x-4

Answer:

x=1/2y + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

multiply the equation. by -1 to make the x value positive, add -4y to both sides, not we have 8x=4y+16, now divide both sides by 8 and you get x=1/2y +2

rosa is saving money for a trip. she has already saved $250 and plans to save $40 per week. this situation can be represented by

malfutka [58]

Rosa has saved $490 in 6 weeks.

To find the answer to this, simply plug the number of weeks in for the value of x and solve.

f(x) = 250 + 40x

f(6) = 250 + 40(6)

f(6) = 250 + 240

f(6) = 490

Three numbers are in the ratio 6:3:1, and the sum of these numbers is 420. If the first number is reduced by 50%, and the second

Naily [24]

$x:y:z\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ 6:3:1\\ \\ \frac{x}{z} =\frac{6}{1}\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ x=6z\ \ \ \ \ \ \ and\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{y}{z} =\frac{3}{1}\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ y=3z\\ \\x+y+z=420\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ 6z+3z+z=420\ \ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ \ 10z=420\ /:10\\ \\z=42\ \ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \ \ x=6\cdot42=252\ \ \ \ and\ \ \ \ y=3\cdot42=126\\ \\ \\a=x-50\%x=50\%x= \frac{1}{2} \cdot252=126=3\cdot42\\ \\b=y+42=126+42=168=4\cdot42\\ \\c=420-126-168=126=3\cdot42\\ \\a:b:c\ \ \ \Leftrightarrow\ \ \ 3:4:3$

What is angle DCE? A. 34 B. 85 C. 102 D. 98

s2008m [1.1K]

The red line is 180 degrees. So the arcs on top of the circle all equal up to 180 degrees. the number 72 doesn't really matter cause you're trying to find out the angle of DCE which is on the other side of the circle. So you gotta find the arc length of DE which is 68 because 180-112=68. So to find the angle, you have to divide the opposite arc length by two, which is 34.

ANSWER: A. 34. you're welcomee!!
