Solve for a in the equation a-17=42

Mathematics

Ilya [14]3 years ago

Answer:

a = 59

Step-by-step explanation:

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable (a). Add 17 to both sides

a - 17 = 42

a - 17 (+17) = 42 (+17)

a = 42 + 17

Simplify. Combine like terms

a = 42 + 17

a = 59

59 is your answer

Solve for a (this means they want you to get "a" by itself in the equation)

So:

a - 17 = 42     Add 17 on both sides to get "a" by itself

a - 17 + 17 = 42 + 17

a = 59

Which statement accurately describes how to reflect point A(3,-1) over the y-axis?
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The answer in the procedure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The rule of the reflection of a point over the y-axis is equal to

A(x,y) ----->A'(-x,y)

That means -----> The x-coordinate of the image is equal to the x-coordinate of the pre-image multiplied by -1 and the y-coordinate of both points (pre-image and image) is the same

so

A(3,-1) ------> A'(-3,-1)

The distance from A to the y-axis is equal to the distance from A' to the y-axis (is equidistant)

therefore

To reflect a point over the y-axis

Construct a line from A perpendicular to the y-axis, determine the distance from A to the y-axis along this perpendicular line, find a new point on the other side of the y-axis that is equidistant from the y-axis

Whats the slope of the line?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

m = rise/run = 4/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

This line goes throught the "exact" grid intersections (-2, 0) and (3, 4).  As we move from the first point to the second, we see that x increases by 5 (this is the 'run') and y increases by 4 (this is the 'rise').  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise/run = 4/5.

What is the value of x?<br> Enter your answer in the box
Gre4nikov [31]
The horizontal value in a pair of coordinates: how far along the point is. The X Coordinate is always written first in an ordered pair of coordinates (x,y), such as (12,5). In this example, the value "12" is the X Coordinate. Also called "Abscissa" See: Coordinates.

PLEASE HELP WORTH 16 POINTS WILL REPORT LINKS

Answer:

Angle A = 30.8

Angle B = 33.2

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 116 = 64  

This means that the other two angles need to add up to 64.

I just plugged in numbers until it worked.

I got that x = 14.6

2x + 4

2(14.6) + 4

29.2 + 4

33.2

3x - 13

3(14.6) - 13

43.8 - 13

30.8

Those are your angles. To make sure they are correct you just need to add up all the angles and make sure that they equal to 180.

116 + 33.2 + 30.8 =

180
