Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
16 × 9 = 8 × x
x = 18
Answer: y = 3x-8
------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------
Explanation:
The slope is 3, so m = 3
The given point is (3,1) meaning x = 3 and y = 1. The x coordinate is always listed first in an ordered pair. The general format is (x,y)
We'll use m = 3, x = 3 and y = 1 to find the y intercept
y = mx+b
y = m*x+b
1 = 3*3+b ... plug in m = 3, x = 3 and y = 1
1 = 9+b
1-9 = 9+b-9 ... subtract 9 from both sides
-8 = b
b = -8
----------------
So we're given m = 3 as the slope and we just found that b = -8 is the y intercept
So y = mx+b updates to y = 3x-8. This is the final answer.
----------------
Side Notes:
* The slope of 3 means rise/run = 3/1 indicating each time we go up 3, we move to the right 1
* The y intercept -8 is the location on the vertical y axis numberline where the graph crosses. The point (0,-8) is on this line.
Answer:
The number of hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The dependent variable is what you are mesuaring.
Answer:
Hulian's age is 7.
Thomas's age is 22.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Hulian = h
Let Thomas = t
Set the system of equation:
h = t - 15
h + t = 29
Plug in t - 15 for h in the second equation:
(t - 15) + t = 29
Simplify. Combine like terms:
2t - 15 = 29
Isolate the variable, t. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, add 15 to both sides:
2t - 15 (+15) = 29 (+15)
2t = 44
Divide 2 from both sides:
(2t)/2 = (44)2
t = 44/2
t = 22
Plug in 22 for t in one of the equations:
h = t - 15
h = 22 - 15
h = 7
Hulian's age is 7.
Thomas's age is 22.
