Answer: 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope - intercept form is given as :

y = mx + c , where :

m = slope

c = y - intercept

Given:

2y = 3x - 30

What we need to do is to write it in slope - intercept form, we will make y the subject of formula.

Divide the equation through by 2

2y/2 = 3x/2 - 30/2

y = 3x/2 - 15

comparing with y = mx + c

slope = 3/2 = 1.5

\text{In your case, we're trying to find the slope}\\\\\text{In order for you to find your slope, the y variable has to be 1}\\\\\text{To do this, we would divide the equation by 2.}\\\\\text{Divide:}\\\\2y=3x-30​\\\\y=\frac{3}{2}x-15\\\\\text{When you divide, you would see that your slope would be 3/2}\\\\\boxed{\text{Slope:}\,\frac{3}{2}}

arlik [135]

Answer:

He sold 100 rackets for $ 20

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, we have to make 2 equations, one that represents the number of rackets and the other the money

x + y = 500

x * 20 + y * 45 = 20000

we clear x in the first equation

x + y = 500

x = 500 - y

we replace x in the second equation with (500 - y)

x * 20 + y * 45 = 20000

(500 - y) * 20 + y * 45 = 20000

10000 - 20y + 45y = 20000

-20y + 45y = 20000 - 10000

25y = 10000

y = 10000/25

y = 400

we replace x in the first equation with the value obtained

x = 500 - y

x = 500 - 400

x = 100

He sold 100 rackets for $ 20

Write a system of equations to describe the situation below, solve using substitution, and fill in the blanks.Josiah has punch c
love history [14]

Let x be the number of weeks; therefore, the two linear equations are

\begin{gathered} T=2+7x \\ \text{and} \\ C=11+4x \end{gathered}

Where T stands for the punches on the tea punch card and C for the punches on the coffee punch card.

Solving by substitution. Set T=C, then

\begin{gathered} T=C \\ \Rightarrow2+7x=11+4x \\ \Rightarrow3x=9 \\ \Rightarrow x=\frac{9}{3}=3 \\ \Rightarrow x=3 \end{gathered}

Thus, substitute the value of x=3 into the first equation,

\begin{gathered} x=3 \\ \Rightarrow T=2+7\cdot3=23 \\ \Rightarrow T=23 \end{gathered}

Thus, after 3 weeks, Josiah will have the same number of punches on each card, and he will have 23 punches on each card.

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below
Georgia [21]

Answer:

the length of the hypotenuse must be 10.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a right triangle, so we can apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

6² + 8² = 10²   so the length of the hypotenuse must be 10.
