Step-by-step explanation:

Given: XW is an altitude

m∠XWY=8x-6

Prove: x=2

Solution:

Statement Reason

1. XW is an altitude Given

2. m∠XWY = 90° Definition of altitude

3. m∠XWY = 8x - 6 Given

4. 8x - 6 = 90 Substitution property

5. 8x - 6 + 6 = 90 + 6 Addition property of equality

8x = 90

6. x = 12 Division property of equality

Answer:

Plot the points (0,0) and (1,3) to make the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a linear equation is y=mx+b, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. We can see that the slope is m=3, and there is no b meaning b=0. Since the y-intercept is 0 we can start from the origin (0,0). The slope is 3/1 or known as rise/run. You go up 3 and go right 1, making the second point (1,3). This should work.

ronaldo delivers the papers at the rate of 6 papers in 24 minutes. how much longer would it take him to deliver 56 papers than 4

UkoKoshka [18]

We are given

Ronaldo delivers the papers at the rate of 6 papers in 24 minutes

so, number of papers =6 in time =24 minutes

so, firstly we can find rate

rate = ( number of papers)/( time taken)

$r=\frac{6}{24} =\frac{1}{4}$
