\bf \begin{array}{ccll} \stackrel{map}{inches}&\stackrel{actual}{feet}\\ \cline{1-2} 3&20\\ x&12 \end{array}\implies \cfrac{3}{x}=\cfrac{20}{12}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 12}{20}=x\implies \cfrac{9}{5}=x\implies 1\frac{4}{5}=x

Solve the equation 5/6x - 4 = -2
Leviafan [203]

1. Add 4 to both sides of the equation.

\frac{5}{6}x-4+4=-2+4

\frac{5}{6}x=2


2. Multiply 6/5.

\frac{6}{5} * \frac{5}{6}x = \frac{6}{5} * 2

x=\frac{12}{5}

Consider the point P = (3,8) and the line L, given by the equation y = 3x -4.
Fofino [41]

Answer:

A parallel y = 3x-1

B perpendicular y = -1/3x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3x-4 is written in slope intercept form  (y=mx+b) so the slope is 3.

A.  If the lines are parallel they have the same slope

m parallel is 3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-8 = 3(x-3)

Distribute

y-8 = 3x-9

Add 8 to each side

y-8+8 = 3x-9+8

y = 3x-1

This is slope intercept form

B If we want perpendicular lines, the slope is the negative reciprocal

m perpendicular is -(1/3)  = -1/3

Using point slope form

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-8 = -1/3(x-3)

Distribute

y-8 = -1/3x+1

Add 8 to each side

y-8+8 = -1/3x+1+8

y = -1/3x+9

This is slope intercept form

What is the solution to the inequity 7x-5
Lemur [1.5K]
The answer would be -35. I think so because you multiply -5 by 7. You also multiply 7x by 7 too right?

Is the sequence 3,6,9,12 geometric? True or false and why
IRINA_888 [86]
This sequence is not a geometric.
It is because, common ratio = 6/3 = 2
9/6 = 1.5

As the ratio's are not same, it is not a G.P

Hope this helps!
