You set up the equation. Then you do 20 minus 12 which gives you 8. You’re left over with x/3 equals 8. 8 multiplied by 3 gives 24, so x equals 24

What is the x intercept of the equation that passes through (1,-6) and is perpendicular to y=1/3x +1
fomenos
\bf y=\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{1}{3}}x+1\impliedby \textit{slope of this line, so a perpendicular will be}
\\\\\\
\textit{perpendicular, negative-reciprocal slope for}\quad \cfrac{1}{3}\\\\
negative\implies  -\cfrac{1}{ 3}\qquad reciprocal\implies - \cfrac{ 3}{1}\implies -3\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1\\
&&(~1 &,& -6~)

\bf slope =  m\implies -3
\\\\\\
% point-slope intercept
\stackrel{\textit{point-slope form}}{y- y_1= m(x- x_1)}\implies y-(-6)=-3(x-1)
\\\\\\
y+6=-3x+3\implies 0+6=-3x+3\implies 3=-3x\implies \cfrac{3}{-3}=x

Can someone please help me on this one question?
Katyanochek1 [597]
A+30 = 60
a = 30

a + 2b = 60
30+2b = 60
2b = 30
b = 15

5b - 5c = 60
5(15) - 5c = 60
5c = 15
c = 3

10c + d = 60
10(3) + d = 60
30 + d = 60
d = 30

2d + 6e = 180 - 60
2(30) + 6e = 120
6e = 60
e = 10

4f + 4e = 120
4f + 4(10) = 120
4f = 80
f = 20
