Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Line DE is parallel to line AG.

Also, triangle ABG is similar to triangle to triangle DBE.

Therefore,

AB/DB = GB/EB = AG/DE

AB = 5 + 6 = 11

GB = 9 + x

Therefore,

11/6 = (9 + x)/9

Cross multiplying, it becomes

11 × 9 = 6(9 + x)

99 = 54 + 6x

Subtracting 54 from the Left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

54 - 54 + 6x = 99 - 54

6x = 45

Dividing the Left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 6, it becomes

6x/6 = 45/6

x = 7.5

el triangulo que forma el radio es un triangulo equilátero y por lo tanto el lado del hexágono sera de la misma medida que el radio:

lado = radio = 2 cm

como hay 6 lados, lo multiplicamos por 6 :

2x6 = 12 cm

entonces el perímetro del hexágono es 12 cm

Multiply each hourly rate by x ( time to complete the work) add it to the service call for each and then set the equations equal:

50 + 40x = 30 +45x

Subtract 30 from both sides:

20 + 40x = 45x

Subtract 40x from both sides:

20 = 5x

Divide both sides by 5

x = 4

The length is 4 hours.

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (-3, 5) and (1, 7)?

Stells [14]

Answer: The slope of the line is $\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line can be calculated with the following formula:

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Then, given the points $(-3, 5)$ and $(1, 7)$ , you can identify that:

$y_2=5\\y_1=7\\\\x_2=-3\\x_1=1$

Knowing these values you can substitute them into the formula for calculate the slope:

$m=\frac{5-7}{-3-1}$

Finally, evaluating, you get that the slope of that line is:

$m=\frac{-2}{-4}\\\\m=\frac{1}{2}$

Answer:

The solution of this system of equations is (3 , -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system is

x + 2y = -13

12x + 5y = -4

We make x the subject of the first equation and put it into the second:

$x = - 13 - 2y$

We put this expression for x into the second equation

12(-13-2y)+5y=-4

-156-24y+5y=-4

-24y+5y=-4+156

-19y=152

y=-8

We substitute y=-8 into x=-13-2y to get:

$x = - 13 - 2( - 8) = 3$

The solution of this system of equations is (3 , -8)
