You need to isolate y. When you do, will get y=(4/3)x-2. When the equation is in this form, you can see that the slope is 4/3
Hello,
Perimeter is a function of the number of hexagons.
-1/3(px-2) = 9
ok! so first we want to isolate x.
multiply both sides by -3/1 (this is the reciprocal of -1/3)
(px-2) = -27
px = -27 + 2
px = -25
x = -25/p
hope this helped!
Let
x-------> one number
y--------> another number
we know that
x=6y--------> equation 1
(1/x)+(1/y)=14/3-----> (x+y)/xy=14/3-----> 3*(x+y)=14xy-----> equation 2
<span>I substitute 1 in 2
</span>3*(6y+y)=14(6y)y------> 21y=84y²-----> y=0.25
x=6y-----> x=6*0.25-----> x=1.5
the answer is
the numbers are 1.5 and 0.25
