Answer: a = b + kx^-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

ax + -1bx = k

Solving

ax + -1bx = k

Solving for variable 'a'.

Move all terms containing a to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add 'bx' to each side of the equation.

ax + -1bx + bx = bx + k

Combine like terms: -1bx + bx = 0

ax + 0 = bx + k

ax = bx + k

Divide each side by 'x'.

a = b + kx^-1

Simplifying

a = b + kx^-1

Sam wants to buy 8 pencils and 6 pens, which cost a total of $8.50. He realizes he doesn't have enough cash and instead takes on
Diano4ka-milaya [45]
X = pencils, y = pens

8x + 6y = 8.50
4x + 4y = 5.....multiply by -2
----------------
8x + 6y = 8.50
-8x - 8y = -10 (result of multiplying by -2)
-----------------add
-2y = - 1.50
y = -1.50 / -2
y = 0.75 <=== pens cost 0.75

4x + 4y = 5
4x + 4(0.75) = 5
4x + 3 = 5
4x = 5 - 3
4x = 2
x = 2/4
x = 0.50 <== pencils cost 0.50

The formula for the area of a circle is a= 2Ïr^2. how does the value for a change when r increases
ivann1987 [24]
The radius is half the diameter of the circle.  If the radius gets larger then the whole circle grows.  When the circle gets larger, the area gets larger too.

I need help...I'm new to all this geometry stuff can someone please show me some steps to this problem
Rasek [7]


There really aren't any steps. It's just a handy fact about Isosceles triangles.

An Isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two sides that are the same length,
and one of the facts about this kind of triangle is that the angles opposite the
two equal sides are equal angles.

In your picture, the two sides of the triangle that have tick marks across them
are equal lengths, and that means that the angles at 'S' and 'U' are equal angles.

In this kind of triangle, those are called the "base angles", even though they
don't necessarily have to be the angles that the triangle stands on.  They're
just the two angles that are opposite the two equal sides.
