-3x + 6y = -12
-3x + 3x + 6y = -12 + 3x

y = -2 + 1/2x
-3x + 6(-2 + 1/2x) = -12
-3x - 12 + 3x = -12
-3x + 3x - 12 = -12

3x=36
(Divide by 3 each side)
3x divided by 3= x
36 divided by 3 = 6
Answer: x=6
Answer: -2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, we set the function use y = mx + b forms.
2x + 5y = 10
5y = -2x + 10 Minus 2x in both side
y = -2/5x + 10/5 Divide 5 from both side
y = -2/5x + 2
In the y = mx + b, the m before variable x is always the slope, so -2/5 is the slope for 2x + 5y = 10.
Answer:
6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of "another side." Then "one side" is ...
2x -10 . . . . . . 10 feet shorter than twice another side
The sum of these two side lengths is half the perimeter, so is ...
x + (2x -10) = 14 . . . . . two sides are half the perimeter
3x = 24 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 10, collect terms
x = 8 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .divide by the coefficient of x
(2x -10) = 2·8 -10 = 6 . . . . find "one side"
We have found "one side" to be 6 feet long, and "another side" to be 8 feet long. The shorter side is 6 feet.
Answer:
659.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
x = 140 / tan 23
x = 329.82(rounded to hundredth)
so total ground distance between the cables = 2x = 2(329.82) = 659.64 feet
