seraphim [82]

The common difference is 1 1/3
40-1 1/3= 38 2/3
38 2/3-1 1/3=37 1/3
37 1/3-1 1/3=36
Therefore the missing number is 38 2/3

Some one please HeLp and explain

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

2nd option

Step-by-step explanation:

You're goal is to isolate b by itself. The only part you need to worry about is the equation, the rest of the word problem is irrelevant.

The whole process of solving this is to do PEMDAS in reverse.

So first add/subtract all the values that does not have a <em>b</em> attach to it to the other side.

then multiply/divide all the values that is not a <em>b</em> to get the b-value by itself

kvv77 [185]

Answer: If perpendicular lines intersect, then they form right angles.

Step-by-step explanation:

You take the first part, "perpendicular lines intersect", and add the "if" to it. Then, you take the second part, "to form right angles", and add the "then" in front of it to get your answer, "If perpendicular lines intersect, then they form right angles."

Hope it helps! :)
