A=3X-3
B=-X+3
If A+B=2X-2, then using equalivant exchange A=2X-2-B and
B=2X-2-A
If A-B=4X-8, then A=4X-8+B and -B=4X-8-A(or B=-4X+8+A)
Since A equals both 2x-2-B and 4X-8+B we can add both equations to equal 2A=6X-6 now we devide that by 2 to get
A=3X-3
Do the exact same for B, so b equals both 2X-2-A and -4X+8+A
We can add them both to get 2B=-2X+6 and decide that by 2 to get B=-X+3

line v has an equation of y=10/9x +1. Line w includes the point (-3,3) and is perpendicular to line v. What is the equation of l

NARA [144]

Answer:

y = -9/10x + 3/10 or y = 3/10(1 - 3x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of one another

so slope of line w is -9/10

Using (-3,3) >> y = -9/10x + b

3 = -9/10(-3) + b

3 = 27/10 + b

b = 3 - 27/10 = 30/10 - 27/10 = 3/10

y = -9/10x + 3/10 or y = 3/10(1 - 3x)

Solve the formula C = πd for d

REY [17]

Answer:

$d = \frac{C}{\pi}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$C= \pi d\\$

Isolate d ; Divide both sides of the equation by $\pi$

$\frac{C}{\pi} = \frac{\pi d}{\pi }$

Simplify

$\frac{C}{\pi} = d\\\\d = \frac{C}{\pi}$

Note; Another formula for d(diameter) =

$2\times radius$
