What is the answer to x/3-2=7

1 answer:

3 0

x/3-2=7
---------------------
SImplify
1/3x - 2 = 7
--------------------------
add 2 to each side
1/3x - 2 + 2 = 7 + 2
1/3x = 9
------------------------------
Multiply each side by 3
3 * (1/3x) = 3 * 9
x = 27

Answer:

30°, 30° and 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information given in the question.

let x be the measure of each congruent base angle , then

the third angle = 3x + 30

Sum the 3 angles and equate to 180

3x + 30 + x + x = 180, that is

5x + 30 = 180 ( subtract 30 from both sides )

5x = 150 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 30

Thus

The 2 congruent bas angles are each = 30°

The third angle = 3x + 30 = 3(30) + 30 = 90 + 30 = 120°

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (-1, 1.5) and (0.5, 0.5)

Step2247 [10]

The slope-point formula:

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\\\m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We have:

$(-1,\ 1.5)\to x_1=-1,\ y_1=1.5\\(0.5,\ 0.5)\to x_2=0.5,\ y_2=0.5$

Substitute:

$m=\dfrac{0.5-1.5}{0.5-(-1)}=\dfrac{-1}{1.5}=-\dfrac{1}{\frac{3}{2}}=-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\y-1.5=-\dfrac{2}{3}(x-(-1))\\\\y-1.5=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2}{3}\\\\y-\dfrac{3}{2}=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2}{3}\ \ \ |+\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2}{3}+\dfrac{3}{2}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{2\cdot2}{3\cdot2}+\dfrac{3\cdot3}{2\cdot3}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x-\dfrac{4}{6}+\dfrac{9}{6}\\\\y=-\dfrac{2}{3}x+\dfrac{5}{6}$
