We are given with the equation  (a-c)/(x-a) = m. In this case, to isolate x, we can use the division, multiplication, addition adn subtraction properties. In this case, Divide the whole equation by m, to give, (a-c)/(x-a)/m = 1. Then multiply by (x-a). Then to isolate x, add a. this results to 
x = [(a-c)/m]

If you would like to solve the equation<span> (a - c) / (x - a) = m for x, you can do this using the following steps:

</span><span>(a - c) / (x - a) = m
</span>a - c = m * (x - a)
a - c = mx - ma
mx = a - c + ma
x = (a - c + ma) / m
x = a/m - c/m + a

The correct result would be <span>x = a/m - c/m + a.</span>

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-2, 2) and (1, -4)?
poizon [28]

Answer:

y = - 2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁  = (- 2, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 4)

m = \frac{-4-2}{1+2} = \frac{-6}{3} = - 2, thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 2, 2), then

2 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 4 = - 2

y = - 2x - 2 ← equation of line

3. The formula to find the surface area of a sphere is to take the radius of the sphere and square it and multiply that amount b
KatRina [158]
The way to get the equation for the radius (r) is to get r by itself. So divide each side by 4pi
500/4pi=r^2
Now take the square root of each side to get the equation of r.
sqrt(500/4pi)=r

Hello! Can you please help me on these two problems? =)
poizon [28]

Yeah, I gotta read the questions better.

Perimeter not area.

diagonal length = √((28 - 12)² + (24 - 10)²) = 21.26

P = 12 + 10 + 28 + 24 + 21.26 = 95.26 units

sphere surface area = 4πR²

R = √(379.94 / 4(3.14) = 5.5 in

D = 2R = 11 inch
