Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

These lines are parallel since they both have the slope of 3. Then it becomes a matter of seeing how far their y-intercepts are from one another. That is the distance between them, and will be the distance between them for the entire length of each line since parallel lines remain the same distance apart forever. The first line has a y-intercept of 6 and the second line has a y-intercept of -2. From 6 to 0 is 6, then add another 2 units to get a grand total of 8 units apart. Since distance is a measure of length and length will never be negative, we are not subtracting here. We are simply counting the number of units between each y-intercept. And it doesn't have to be the y-intercept. Every point on the first line is 8 units above every point on the second line.

Ellen is making jewelry sets that contain a bracelet and a pair of earrings. Each bracelet uses 3 times as many beads as one ear

dangina [55]

<h2 /><h2>So there are a pair of earrings and a Bracelet. </h2>

It's given that the Bracelet uses 3 times the number of beads that's used in making a single earring.

It's also given that one single earing has 13 beads. So a single bracelet would have (3×13) beads .... and that's equal to 39.

Making a single set of jewellery needs a pair of earrings and a Bracelet.

So total number of required beads will be =

Answer:

B -1/5

you have to follow pemdas first get rid of the parethase which leaves you with 2+3x+6x=-4x+8x+1 then you add what you can do then you get 2+9x=4x+1 then you subtract 2 from both sides and subtract 4x from both sides which leaves you with 5x=-1 then you divide 5 from both sides and get x=-1/5
