9/2 is the answer
7-4= 3
3times 3/2 is 9/2
Answer:
The linear equation can be written as
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that "Mr. Malone can heat his house in the winter by burning three cords of wood, by sing natural gas, or by combination of the two"
And his heating budget for the winter is $600
To find a linear equation that describes the problem:
Let the cords of wood be x and let sing natural gas be y
So that the combination of the cords of wood and sing natural gas is x+y
Now the linear equation can be written as
Answer: 2:3
Step-by-step explanation:
The fraction 12/18 is equivalent to 2/3.
Answer:
Explanation:
We can factor the numerator and denominator as;
(
x
−
2
)
(
x
−
1
)
2
x
(
x
−
1
)
We can now cancel common term in the numerator and denominator:
(
x
−
2
)
(
x
−
1
)
2
x
(
x
−
1
)
⇒
x
−
2
2
x
However, we cannot divide by
0
so we must exclude:
2
x
=
0
⇒
x
=
0
and
x
−
1
=
0
⇒

Step-by-step explanation:
To complete this equation, it is vital to know the slope. To find the slope using points, you subtract the first x from the second, and the first y from the second. This gives you a slope of 4. Then, you must follow point-slope form and choose one of the order pairs to use. You then write y then the negative of your number. Since the number is already negative, you turn it into a positive. On the other side of the "=" sign, you write your slope, 4 distributing to x. Then you write the negative of your x value. Since it is already negative, it turns into a positive. This gives you a final answer of y+1=4(x+2). I realize that this doesn't line up with your fill-in-the-blank answer, so I am sorry if it doesn't work.
