keeping in mind that parallel lines have exactly the same slope, let's check for the slope of the equation above
so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 4 and passes through (-2 , 0)
2 | 3
45| 67.5
33| 50
multiplying and dividing by 1.5 based off of the 2-3 ratio.
I Tired To Explain It As Best As I Could.
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don’t contain the variable.
24 = x • 30
Use The Commutative Property To Reorder The Terms
24 = 30x
Swap The Sides Of The Equations
30x = 24
Divide Both Sides Of The Equations By 30
30x ÷ 30 = 24 ÷ 30
Any Expression Divided By Itself Equals 1
x= 24 ÷ 30 or x =24/30
Reduce The Fraction With 6
x = 4/5
Exact Form:
x = 4/5
Decimal Form:
x = 0.8
Answer:
Before adding, we need to make sure the denominators are the same. We can do so by multiplying the fraction by a common multiple. In this case, 3 is a multiple of 6, so we can change 1/2 to 3/6. 3/6 is still equal to 1/2, so nothing changes.
Now we have 3/6+1/6, which is 4/6 (add the numerator).
4/6 can be simplified to 2/3 and 2 is a multiple of 4 and 6.
So, therefore, the answer is 2/3.
To effectively determine the correct answer, it would be helpful to write this into an algebraic expression. We let x as the number. We do as follows:
<span>Four times the square of a certain number increased by 6 times the number equals 108.
4x^2 + 6x = 108
The numbers can be either of the following since the equation generated was a quadratic equation which has two roots.
x = 4.5
x = -6 </span>
