The slope of the line would be -1/2.

To find the slope we need to make the line in the form y = mx + b:

2x + 4y + 7 = 0

2x + 4y = -7

4y = -2x - 7

÷ 4

y = (-2/4)x - (7/4)

-2/4 simplifies to -1/2.

I hope this helps!

The two triangles are similar.

Neko [114]

Given that the triangles are similar.

When triangles are similar, all three pairs of corresponding sides are in the same ratio.

Similarly in the given triangles, the ratio of the corresponding sides are equal.

$\frac{8}{2x-2}= \frac{8+6}{3x}$

$\frac{8}{2x-2}= \frac{14}{3x}$

Cross multiplying, we get

$8 \times 3x = 14 \times (2x-2)$

$24x = 28x-28$

$-4x = -28$

Dividing both sides of the equation by -4.

So, we get

x = 7.

If i am making $4 billion / sec then how much money would i have in 10 minutes? if i am making $6 billion / sec then how much mo

Ghella [55]

If you are making 4 billion a second do 4,000,000,000 x 60 = 240,000,000,000
Then times that by 10 which equals. 2,400,000,000,000

Is the answer for the second one
6,000,000,000 x 60 x 60 x 2 = 1,296,000,000,000,000

For each direct variation find the constant of variation then find the value of Y when X equals -0.5. Y equals 2 when X equals 3

Readme [11.4K]

For direct variation y varies directly with x, then we use equation y = kx

Where k is the constant of proportionality

Given: Y equals 2 when X equals 3

We plug in 3 for x and 2 for y and solve for k

y = kx

2 = k(3)

Divide both sides by 3

$\frac{2}{3} =k$

Now we plug in 2/3 for k

$y=\frac{2}{3}x$

Given x=-0.5 and find out y

$y=\frac{2}{3}(-0.5)$

y=-0.33

the value of y is -0.33 when x=-0.5
