Answer:
y=770-55x --- given
y - 770 = 770 - 55x - 770 ----subtraction property of equality
y = -55x + 770 ---Simplification
y-770/-55 = -55x/-55 --- Division property of equality
-y-770/55=x---Simplification

Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
When given two points, we can find the slope by
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (1-0)/(-3- -5)
= (1-0) / (-3+5)
= 1/2
Answer:
2x = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
7 + 3x = 22
-7 -7
Subtract 7 from both sides (you are trying to get the variable alone, and to do that, you have to get every other number to 0. <em>7 - 7 = 0</em>. BUT, whatever you do, you have to do to both sides.)
3x = 15
/3 /3
Divide both sides by three to get the variable alone.
x = 5
Now, plug in the value of x to the second equation and solve.
2(5) = ? --> 10
Answer:
x=1.25, y=1.75
Step-by-step explanation:
The two triangles formed (one triangle with side lengths of 5, 7, 8 and another with sides 5+x, 10, and 7+y) are similar, because they share the same angle measures.
Now, 2 sides given that we can compare ratios with are the side with length 8, and the side with length 10. 10/8= 1.25, which is the ratio of the sides on these 2 triangles.
Now we want to find what the side '5+x' is equal to. To do that we can use our ratio, and multiply 5 by 1.25 to find '5+x'. This is 6.25. To find x, all we need to do is subtract 5 from 6.25, which is 1.25.
Let's find y now. Do the same thing that we did with the side '5+x'; find what '7+y' is by multiplying 7 by 1.25, which is 8.75. 8.75-7= 1.75.
Hope this helps! :)
