On a number line, a number, b, is located the same distance from 0 as another number, a, but in the opposite direction. The numb

er b varies directly with the number a. For example b = 2b equals 2 and StartFraction 3 Over 4 EndFraction. when a = –2a equals negative 2 and StartFraction 3 Over 4 EndFraction.. Which equation represents this direct variation between a and b?
b = –a
–b = –a
b – a = 0
b(–a) = 0

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

7 Hours 12 Minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

So they one of the printer increases at a rate of 1/12 and the other increases at a rate of 1/18. Since you don't know the time it actually takes, you will replace both numerators with and x. (x/12 and x/18). You want to set these up so that they are adding. (x/12 + x/18=1). Since you're adding, you want to change it to the same denominator. The lowest is 36 so you multiply x/12 by 3/3 (so you don't unbalance the equation) and x/18 by 2/2. You'll end up with 3x/36 + 2x/36= 1 which will simplify to 5x/36=1. Multiply each side by 36 to leave the variable by itself. It becomes 5x=36 and when you divide it by 5 you get 7.2. So it's seven and .2 hours, which is equivalent to7 and 1/5 of an hour or 7 hours and 12 minutes.

The measure of angle KMJ??
Irina18 [472]
44

Assuming JM and LN are parallel, KMJ=MKN. MKN is part of a triangle where the other two values are defined (48 and 88). By subtracting these values from 180, we find the value of MKN is 44, which therefore is also the value of KMJ.

Bond [772]

Answer:

C. $29.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The difference between using an electric stove and a gas stove everyday is 13 cents - 5 cents= 8 cents.

Saving 8 cents everyday.

Therefore for a year, Bryce will save 8 cents × 365days = 2920 cents

Then 2920 cents = $(2920÷100)

=$29.20

Which equation represents a hyperbola with a center at (0, 0), a vertex at (−48, 0), and a focus at (50, 0)?
Sedbober [7]
<span>The center, vertex, and focus all lie on the line y = 0. Then we know that the equation of a hyperbola is a^2 + b^2 = c^2 . a^2 represents the x part of the equation and the y part will be subtracted. We know that the vertex is 48 units from the center and that the focus is 50 units from the center. Then we have that b^2 = 2500 - 2304 = 196 . Thus the equation that represents the hyperbola is x^2/2304 - y^2/196 = 1 or 49x^2 -576y^2 - 112896 = 0</span>
