a:b:c=6:8:10

P=96 cm

A=?

---------------

6x+8x+10x=96
24x=96
x=4

a=24 cm, b= 32 cm, c= 40 cm

What is an equation for the linear function whose graph contains the points (2, 5) & (3, 0)?

max2010maxim [7]

You need to calculate it's slope:
y2-y1 = m(x2-x1)
0-5 = m(3-2)
-5 = m
Now, it would be: y-5 = -5(x-2)

What is the value a and b in<br> The equation<br><br> a(3x -8)=b-18x

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

$a=\frac{b-18x}{3x-8}\\b=3ax-8a+18x$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Solving for A:</u>

$a(3x-8)=b-18x$ - Given

$\frac{a(3x-8)}{(3x-8)}=\frac{b-18x}{(3x-8)}$ - Divide both sides by 3x-8 to isolate a

$a = \frac{b-18x}{3x-8}$ - Simplify

<u>Solving for B:</u>

<u /> $a(3x-8)=b-18x$ - Given

$3ax-8a=b-18x$ - Distribute the parenthesis (distributive property)

$3ax-8a+18x=b$ - Add 18x to both sides to isolate b
