If rs =3x + 1, st = 2x- 2 ,and rt = 64,find the value of x

1 answer:

3 0

rs + st = rt Plug in the values
3x + 1 + 2x - 2 = 64 Combine like terms (1 and -2)
3x -1 + 2x = 64 Combine like terms (3x and 2x)
-1 + 5x = 64 Add 1 to both sides
5x = 65 Divide both sides by 5
x = 13

patriot [66]

Grapefruit=108

Orange=100

Apple=90

a) (108-90)/90*100 = 18/90*100=20%

b) (108-90)/108= 18/108*100=16 2/3%

Which function has the same y-intercept as the one below

Over [174]

Check the picture below, so let's check the equations below hmmm

$\boxed{A}\\\\ y=\cfrac{16-3x}{4}\implies y=\cfrac{-3x+16}{4}\implies y = \cfrac{-3x}{4}+\cfrac{16}{4}\implies y=-\cfrac{3}{4}x\stackrel{\stackrel{b}{\downarrow }}{+4}~\hfill \bigotimes \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill$

$\boxed{D}\\\\ y+4=2x\implies y=2x\underset{\stackrel{\uparrow }{b}}{-4}\qquad \textit{\Large \checkmark}\qquad \impliedby \qquad \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$
