First you subtract 8 from 26, which is 18. Then you divide 18 by 6, which is 3. x equals 3.
10-6v+9v=28
10+3v=28
-10 -10
3v=18
3 3
v=6
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=28
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use similar triangles and proportions to solve this problem. Put the side of the small triangle over the same side of the larger triangle.
x 42
---------- = ----------
x+10 42+15
Simplify
x 42
---------- = ----------
x+10 57
Using cross products
57x = 42 (x+10)
Distribute
57x = 42x+420
Subtract 42x from each side
57x-42x = 42x-42x +420
15x = 420
Divide each side by 15
15x/15 = 420/15
x=28
Y = mx + b, m = slope and b = y-intercept
Because you don't have the y-intercept, you take the equation and replace x and y with the values given, then solve for b and replace b in the original equation with the value found.
y = 2/3x + b
0 = (2/3)(-3) + b
0 = -2 + b
2 = b
y = 2/3x + 2 is the answer
