The lowest term for 20/24 is 5/6
Answer:
x = (-27)/11
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
(-11 x)/54 - 1/2 = 0
Put each term in (-11 x)/54 - 1/2 over the common denominator 54: (-11 x)/54 - 1/2 = (-27)/54 - (11 x)/54:
(-27)/54 - (11 x)/54 = 0
(-27)/54 - (11 x)/54 = (-11 x - 27)/54:
(-11 x - 27)/54 = 0
Multiply both sides of (-11 x - 27)/54 = 0 by 54:
(54 (-11 x - 27))/54 = 54×0
(54 (-11 x - 27))/54 = 54/54×(-11 x - 27) = -11 x - 27:
-11 x - 27 = 54×0
0×54 = 0:
-11 x - 27 = 0
Add 27 to both sides:
(27 - 27) - 11 x = 27
27 - 27 = 0:
-11 x = 27
Divide both sides of -11 x = 27 by -11:
(-11 x)/(-11) = 27/(-11)
(-11)/(-11) = 1:
x = 27/(-11)
Multiply numerator and denominator of 27/(-11) by -1:
Answer:x = (-27)/11
(8,5)(-12,-9)
slope = (-9 - 5) / (-12 - 8) = -14/-20 = 7/10
y = mx + b
slope(m) = 7/10
use either of ur points.....(8,5)....x = 8 and y = 5
now we sub and find b, the y int
5 = 7/10(8) + b
5 = 56/10 + b
5 - 56/10 = b
50/10 - 56/10 = b
-3/5 = b
so ur equation is : y = 7/10x - 3/5.....now we put it in standard form
y = 7/10x - 3/5...multiply by 10
10y = 7x - 6.....subtract 7x
-7x + 10y = -6....multiply by -1
7x - 10y = 6
So.....7x - 10y = 3.... IS NOT a good model. Because ur points are not a solution to ur equation.
Answer:
$128.49
Step-by-step explanation:
4 gallons at $15.72 each is 4×$15.72 = $62.88
3 gallons at $21.87 each is 3×$21.87 = $65.61
The total purchase is ...
$62.88 +65.61 = $128.49
Tim will be spending $128.49 on paint.
