So you are finding M
90+x+15+3x+15=180
4x=60
X = 15
LMN = 15+15
LMN = 30
hopefully this is correct :)
The answer is, 9/50
0.18 = 0.18/1
0.18/1 x 100/100 = 18/100
18/100 divided by 2/2 = 9/50
In conclusion the answer is 9/50.
Hopefully that helped! :)
-x - y = 8
2x - y = -1
Ok, we are going to solve this in 2 parts. First we have to solve for one of the variables in one of the equation in terms of the other variable. I like to take the easiest equation first and try to avoid fractions, so let's use the first equation and solve for x.
-x - y = 8 add y to each side
-x = 8 + y divide by -1
x = -8 - y
So now we have a value for x in terms of y that we can use to substitute into the other equation. In the other equation we are going to put -8 - y in place of the x.
2x - y = -1
2(-8 - y) - y = -1 multiply the 2 through the parentheses
-16 - 2y - y = -1 combine like terms
-16 - 3y = -1 add 16 to both sides
-3y = 15 divide each side by -3
y = -5
Now we have a value for y. We need to plug it into either of the original equations then solve for x. I usually choose the most simple equation.
-x - y = 8
-x - (-5) = 8 multiply -1 through the parentheses
-x + 5 = 8 subtract 5 from each side
-x = 3 divide each side by -1
x = -3
So our solution set is
(-3, -5)
That is the point on the grid where the 2 equations are equal, so that is the place where they intersect.
Answer:
The slope of this line is <u>1/5</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
You can find the answer easily by graphing the problem. In doing so, you will find the slope (rise over run) to be one over five. This is because you rise one unit, and run five.
