Answer:

x=\frac{13+y}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Grandma Gertrude gives 13 and Fien gives y.

x=13+y

The total amount of jewelry divided evenly between  the 5 sisters:

x=\frac{13+y}{5}

Nothing further can be done without knowing another value.

Can someone solve this for me?
Helga [31]

well, we know it's a rectangle, so that means the sides JK = IL and JI = KL, so

\stackrel{JK}{3x+21}~~ = ~~\stackrel{IL}{6y}\implies 3(x+7)=6y\implies x+7=\cfrac{6y}{3} \\\\\\ x+7=2y\implies \boxed{x=2y-7} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{JI}{6y-6}~~ = ~~\stackrel{KL}{2x+20}\implies 6(y-1)=2(x+10)\implies \cfrac{6(y-1)}{2}=x+10 \\\\\\ 3(y-1)=x+10\implies 3y-3=x+10\implies \stackrel{\textit{substituting from the 1st equation}}{3y-3=(2y-7)+10} \\\\\\ 3y-3=2y+3\implies y-3=3\implies \blacksquare~~ y=6 ~~\blacksquare ~\hfill \blacksquare~~ \stackrel{2(6)~~ - ~~7}{x=5} ~~\blacksquare

line w passes through point (-6,-7) and has a slope 1/2. what is the equation for the line in point-slope form?
Elena L [17]

Answer:

y + 7 = \frac{1}{2} (x + 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b ) a point on the line

Here m = \frac{1}{2} and (a, b ) = (- 6, - 7 ) , then

y - (- 7) = \frac{1}{2} (x - (- 6) ) , that is

y + 7 = \frac{1}{2} (x + 6)

Find a polynomial function that has the given zeros. (there are many correct answers.) 0, 1, 6
aev [14]
Since those are the zeros, we can say that the equation would have to be
x(x-1)(x-6), then we just expand to get x^3 - 7x^2 + 6x
