Hi there!

Answer:

<u><em>x=403 and 403=x</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Because a student says the answer is 347 is not the right answer. The final answer should be x=403 and 403=x.

375=x-28

Switch sides.

x-28=375

add by 28 both sides of an equation.

x-28+28=375+28

simplify.

x=403 and 403=x

403-28=375

28+375=403

Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=403

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this equation you have to clear X and to clear X you have to add 28 in both sides of the equation to eliminate the -28 from the side of the x:

375=x-28

375(+28)=x-28+(28)

375+28=x

x=403

The student instead of adding the 28 put them with negative sign making him withdraw from teh 375 instead of adding, that was his mistake.

The given line passes through the points (-2,-4) and (2,2) What is the equation, in point-slope form, of the line that is parall
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

(y-1)=\frac{3}{2}(x+3)


Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of a line is (y-y_1)=m(x-x_1) where x_1=-3\\y_1=1. We write  

(y-1)=m(x--3)\\(y-1)=m(x+3)


Since the line is parallel to the line shown it will have the same slope. To find m, count the slope from each marked point on the graph. Count the rise then the run and create a fraction rise/run. The slope is 6/4 which simplifies to 3/2. Now substitute it for m.

(y-1)=\frac{3}{2}(x+3)

Can someone help me with this
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

the perimeter (P) of a rectangle is calculated as

P = 2l + 2w ( l is the length and w the width ) , then

P = 2(3\sqrt{15} ) + 2(\sqrt{15} ) ← distribute both parenthesis )

   = 6\sqrt{15} + 2\sqrt{15}

   = 8\sqrt{15}

Untaxi viaja
juin [17]

Answer:

60 millas por hora.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dado que un taxi viaja  a una velocidad de 48 mph  para llegar a un destino en 2 horas y media, para determinar cuál seria su velocidad si se tarda dos horas para llegar ​se debe realizar el siguiente cálculo:

48 x 2.5 = 120

120 / 2 = X

60 = X

Así, su velocidad, si se tardase dos horas en llegar, sería de 60 millas por hora.
