You isolate the variable, b.
2b+18=12
-18 -18 subtract 18 from each side
2b=-6
/2 /2 divide by two to get one b
b=-3

A shark weighs 405 kg and 68 grams a second shark weighs 324 kg and 75 g how much more does the first shark weigh in grams than

mariarad [96]

For this case we have to by definition:

1 kg equals 1000 grams

Shark 1:

405 kg and 68 grams

$405 kg * \frac {1000 g} {1kg} = 405,000 grams$

Thus, shark 1 weighs 405,068 grams.

Shark 2:

324 kg and 75 grams

$324 kg * \frac {1000 g} {1 kg} = 324,000 grams$

Thus, shark 2 weighs 324,075 grams.

Subtracting we have:

$405.068 grams-324.075 grams = 80.993 grams$

Thus, shark 1 weighs 80,993 grams more than the second.

Answer:

Shark 1 weighs 80,993 grams more than the second.

What is the slope of the line in the graph?<br> -4/3 <br> -3/4<br> 3/4<br> 4/3

AnnyKZ [126]

Answer:

there's no graphed pictured. but slope is rise/ run so just count the boxes between the points on the line. Up and down is the numerator and sideways is the denominator. If its decreasing from left to right it's negative, and if it's increasing left to right then it's positive
