There are 14 days in two weeks, so we can set it up like this:
3 = <span>x
</span>7   14
This is where you can do things a couple of different ways...
If you can see that one denominator is a multiple of another, like 14 is a multiple of 7, you can figure out how many times you have to multiply 7 to get 14, which is 2.  Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 3 over 7, and you end up with 6 over 14 (6/14), so there were 6 sunny days in 2 weeks.
Another way to solve for x in this type of equation is something I've heard called the "fish method" (called this because if you trace your path through the problem while working the steps, it makes a little fish-shaped doodle)
<u>3</u> = <u>x</u>  
7   14
In this problem, you want to start with the 14 and multiply it by the number that is diagonal from it, which is 3.  3 times 14=42  Then you are going to divide that number, 42, by the number directly above or below it, which here the number below is 7.  42÷7=6, so x=6, and that means there were 6 sunny days in a two week period. 
I hope one of these ways helps you :)

The graph of the equation y = 1 x + 2 is displayed.
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

A. y = 7x + 2

C. y = 2 - ⁷/3x

D. y - 2 = 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of any line that would intersect the orange line at the y-intercept, 2, would have the same y-intercept value of 2.

Thus, from the options given, the following equations has y-intercept (b) of 2.

A. y = 7x + 2

C. y = 2 - ⁷/3x

D. y - 2 = 4x

All three equations have a y-intercept value, b, of 2.

Note: option D, y - 2 = 4x, can be rewritten as y = 4x + 2.

Answer:

1) isolate x for -x-5y-5z=2: x = -2 - 5y - 5z

substitute x = -2 -5y - 5z

{4(-2 - 5y - 5z) - 5y + 4z = 19}

{-2 - 5y - 5z + 5y - z = -20}

simplify

{-25y - 16z - 8 = 19}

{-6z - 2 = -20}

isolate z for -6z - 2 = -20: z = 3

substitute z = 3

{-25y - 16 * 3 - 8 = 19}

simplify

{-25y - 56 = 19}

isolate y for -25y - 56 = 19: y = -3

for x = -2 - 5y - 5z

substitute z = 3, y = -3

x = -2 - 5(-3) - 5 * 3

-2 - 5(-3) - 5 * 3 = -2

x = -2

x = -2, z = 3, y = -3

2)isolate x for -4x - 5y - z = 18: x = -(18+5y+z)/4

substitute x = -(18+5y+z)/4

{-2(-(18+5y+z)/4) - 5y - 2z = 12}

{-2(-(18+5y+z)/4) + 5y + 2z = 4}

simplify

{(-5y-3z+18)/2 = 12}

{(15y+5z+18)/2 = 4}

isolate y for (-5y-3z+18)/2 = 12: y = -(3z+6)/5

substitute y = -(3z+6)/5

{15((-3z+6)/5)+5z+18/2 = 4}

simplify

{-2z=4}

isolate z for -2z=4: z = -2

for y = - 3z+6/5

substitute z = -2

y = - 3(-2)+6/5

- 3(-2)+6/5 = 0

y = 0

for x = - 18+5y+z/4

substitute z = -2, y = 0

x = - 18+5*0-2/4

- 18+5*0-2/4 = -4

x = -4

x = -4, z = -2, y = 0

3) x = -1, z = -4, y = -4

4) x = 4, z = 0, y = 2

5) r = 1, t = 1, s = 3

6) x = 0, z = -3, y = 0

Find the GCF<br> 1. 12,21,30<br> 2. 11,44
Dafna1 [17]
The GCF of 12, 21, and 30 is 3.
The factors of 12 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
<span>The factors of 21 are: 1, </span>3, 7, 21
<span>The factors of 30 are: 1, 2, </span>3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
<span>Then the greatest common factor is 3.
</span>
The GCF of 11, and 44 is 11. 
The factors of 11 are: 1, 11
The factors of 44 are: 1, 2, 4, 11, 44
Then the greatest common factor is 11. 

Hope this helps.

mestny [16]
It has to be wider than the first two arcs or else you will just get two circles side by side with point c in common. I usually measure it to be the length of a point between the c and j. It is a good point to get the arcs to intersect.
