The first thing to do with these problems is to convert them into y=mx+b form; this will literally show you the answer to slope and y intercept since m=slope and b=y intercept.
To convert, isolate the y and the rest should fall into place. Subtract 2x from 4y and the other side of the equation to get the equation 4y= -2x+9 (put the x first because of mx+b). Then Divide the 4 from y and do the same to the other side to get y= -1/2x+9/4. M= -1/2 so that is the slope. B=9/4 so that is the y intercept
Answer:
n=-17
Step-by-step explanation:
8(2n-5)=3(6n-2)
1) Distributive property
16x-40=18x-6
16x−40=18x−6
2) Subtract 16x16x from both sides.
-40=18x-6-16x
−40=18x−6−16x
3) Simplify 18x-6-16x18x−6−16x to 2x-62x−6.
-40=2x-6
−40=2x−6
4) Add 66 to both sides.
-40+6=2x
−40+6=2x
5) Simplify -40+6−40+6 to -34−34.
-34=2x
−34=2x
6) Divide both sides by 22.
-\frac{34}{2}=x
−
2
34
=x
7) Simplify \frac{34}{2}
2
34
to 17
−17=x
8) Switch sides.
x=−17
X=width of the lake
y=length of the lake.
we set out this system of equiations
x*y=9/20
x=y/5
we solve by sustitution method
(y/5)*y=9/20
y²/5=9/20
y²=(5*9)/ 20
y²=2.25
y=√2.25=1.5
x=y/5
x=1.5/5=0.3
Solution:
width of the lake=0.3 miles
lenght of the lake=1.5 miles
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>We know that:</u>
<u>Solution:</u>
- 34 + 4q = 90°
- => 4q = 90 - 34
- => 4q = 56
- => q = 56/4
- => q = 14
Hence, the value of q is 14.
