Make a game out of it. it says that softball dimond is 50% bigger than a basball feild. also with the balls. transfer the feet to cm and go from there. i think you need to transfer the percentage into cm as well to get the answer.
It goes on forever basically, as it can't be expressed as a fraction.
In standard form, slope is always the negative of the x coefficient over the y coefficient.
If you dont want to have that memorized, you can use algebra to get the equation of the line into slope-intercept form (y=mx+b)
Set it equal to y
2x - 5y = 6
2x = 5y + 6
2x - 6 = 5y
(2/5)x - 6/5 = y
Now it is in slope intercept form. In slope intercept form, the coefficient multiplying with x is the slope of the line. Therefore, the slope equals 2/5.
When you do the multiplication you can notice that 10, 20, 30, 40 all have 0's at the end.
So that means 10 *20*30*40 = 1*2*3*4*10000 = 24*10000 = 240,000

Answer: A) intersecting</h3>
-----------------------------------------------
Work Shown:
Solve the first equation for y
x+y = ab
y = -x+ab
y = -1x + ab
slope = -1, y intercept = ab
-----------
Solve for y in the second equation
bx - y = a
bx - y - a = 0
bx-a = y
y = bx - a
Slope = b, y intercept = -a
-----------
The first equation has a slope of -1. The second equation has a slope of b.
Since b cannot equal -1, this means the two equations have different slopes. It is impossible for these two lines to be parallel, because parallel lines have equal slopes. The different slope values tell us the lines cross at exactly one point.
