Answer:

2x + y = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

In rectangle side AB and side CD are parallel, so the slope of both the lines will be same it means that they are parallel to each other.

slope of line AB:

\textrm{m}=\frac{\textrm{y}_{A}-\textrm{y}_{B}}{\textrm{x}_{A}-\textrm{x}_{B}}\\\textrm{m}=\frac{5-1}{3-5}=\frac{4}{-2}=-2\\\therefore \textrm{m}=-2

slope of line CD = slope of line AB = -2

∴ equation of line CD:

\textrm{y}-\textrm{y}_{C}=\textrm{m}(\textrm{x}-\textrm{x}_{C})\\ \textrm{y}-2=-2(\textrm{x}-7)\\2\textrm{x}+\textrm{y}=16

Hue is arranging chairs. She can form 2 rows of a given length with 2 chairs left over, or 6 rows of that same length if she get
Nady [450]
There are 7 chairs in each row length.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let number of chairs in 1 row be 'x'.
Let total number of chairs be 'y'.
Given:
Hue can form 6 rows of a given length with 3 chairs left over.
It means that Total number of chairs is equal to chairs in 1 rows multiplied by number of rows which is 6 plus number of chairs which is left which is 3.
Framing in equation form we get.

Also Given:
Hue can form 8 rows of that same length if she gets 11 more chairs.
It means that Total number of chairs is equal to chairs in 1 rows multiplied by number of rows which is 8 minus number of chairs which is required more which is 11.
Framing in equation form we get.

From equation 1 and equation 2 we can say that L.H.S is same.
So according to law of transitivity we get;

Combining like terms we get;

Using Subtraction and Addition property we get;

Now Using Division Property we will divide both side by 2.

Hence there are 7 chairs in each row length.

-12+5x=15-4x<br><br><br> Please help me :( I need to know how to get the answer as well
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand  

5x+15=4x-12

We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.  

+5x-4x=-12-15

We simplify left and right side of the equation.  

+1x=-27

then divide both sides of the equation by 1 to get x.  

x=-27

Ash buys 5 bunches of flowers. Each bunch contains 10 flowers. He gets 8 more flowers from his yard.
Semenov [28]

Answer:

5 x 10 + 8 = f

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason it is 5 x 10 + 8 = f, is because each bunch has 10 and Ash has five.

In order to find how many flowers he has in 5 bunches is to multiply by how many flowers each bunch has.

Then he gets 8 more flowers which is why it has +8 in the equation.
