4a + 6b = 10
2a - 4b = 12...multiply by -2
----------------
4a + 6b = 10
-4a + 8b = - 24 (result of multiplying by -2)
------------------add
14b = - 14
b = -14/14
b = -1
2a - 4b = 12
2a - 4(-1) = 12
2a + 4 = 12
2a = 12 - 4
2a = 8
a = 8/2
a = 4
so 12a = 12(4) = 48 <==
Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
the form you're using is slope-intercept. That is
y=mx+b
where y= y coordinate
m=slope
x= x coordinate
and b= y intercept
so, m in that equation is 1/6, so the slope is 1/6
Hope this helps!
Answer:
11.4
20/100 = x/57
Step-by-step explanation:
It is perhaps simplest just to translate the given English sentence into a mathematical sentence.
... 20% ... ... of ... 57 ... is ... what number
... 20/100 ... × ... 57 .... = ... what number . . . . . . . . translation to math sentence
... 11.4 = what number . . . . . . . . carry out the multiplication
_____
If you're asked to write this as a proportion, you can write it like this:

You can solve this proportion by multiplying by 57 (the denominator under "what number"). Doing so gives you the same arithmetic sentence as shown above.
<span>Consider the equation 3p - 7 + p = 13. What is the resulting equation after the first step in the solution?</span>
Ans: The equation that represents a proportional relationship, or a line, is y=kx, where k is the constant of proportionality. Use k=yx from either a table or a graph to find k and create the equation. Proportional relationships can be represented by tables, graphs and equations.
