26 - 5 = 21

21 / 3 = 7


AleksandrR [38]3 years ago

The <em>correct answer</em> is:


Her number is 7.


Explanation:


Let x represent her number.


She triples her number; this is represented by 3x.


She then adds 5 to this; this gives us 3x+5.


She gets 26 aas her answer. This gives us the equation:

3x+5 = 26


To solve this, first subtract 5 from each side:


3x+5-5 = 26-5

3x = 21


Divide each side by 3:

3x/3 = 21/3

x = 7

How to wirte a linear equation from a graph
astra-53 [7]
Hey there!
I'll assume we're using the slope-intercept form equation:
y = mx + b
m = slope
b = y-intercept
First, we keep the y, because it's value depends on the x value given.
Next, we find the slope. Slope is defined as rise/run, so we take two points on the graph, find how much taller one is from another, and how far right/left they are, put those values over each other, and we have out slope (m).
Finally, we need to determine the y-intercept, and that's as simple as seeing where the line crosses the y axis and writing down that value.
Hope this helps!

What is y=4/5x+2 written in standard form
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

4x-5y=-10

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The equation of the line in standard form is in the form

Ax + By = C

where

A is a positive integer, and B, and C are integers

In this problem we have

y=\frac{4}{5}x+2 ----> equation of the line in slope intercept form

Convert to standard form

Multiply by 5 both sides

5y=4x+10

4x-5y=-10
